Partnerships
Reach people who are already planning a trip to Abuja.
Visit Abuja is an independent guide to Nigeria’s capital: where to stay, what to see, where to eat, what is on this month and how the city actually works. The people reading it are in the middle of a decision: booking a room, choosing a restaurant, working out whether a festival is worth the flight.
We work with the businesses and institutions that shape what a visitor experiences here, and we put them in front of those readers at exactly the right moment.
Partnerships pay for the photography, the research and the writing.
They are what keeps the guide current, and what keeps it free to read.
What a partnership gets you
Everything is built around one goal: sending the right people to your door, your booking page or your ticket page.
A permanent place on the guide
A properly written listing on the guide page where travellers are already looking, with your photos, opening hours, prices and a direct link to book.
Your events in front of planners
Your events on the Abuja events calendar, seen by people planning their week, their weekend and their month in the city.
Features people actually read
Editorial features written to be read rather than scrolled past, telling the story of your place in a way an advert never can.
Original photography
New photographs of your space, shot in Abuja by our team, that you can also use on your own website and social channels.
Campaigns across every channel
Collaborations across the site, our weekly email and our social channels, planned around your launches, seasons and big nights.
A named person who answers
One contact who knows your business and the city, replies within 24 hours and keeps your listing accurate as things change.
If visitors could spend an evening with you, there is a place for you here
We partner with the places and people that make a visit to Abuja worth remembering.
Hotels & serviced apartments
From the Central Business District to Jabi, Maitama and Wuse. Rooms, apartments and the practical detail travellers actually ask about before they book.
Restaurants, bars & clubs
Nigerian kitchens, neighbourhood favourites, rooftops and the places worth staying out for. Our food and nightlife pages are among the most read on the site.
Tour operators & guides
Day trips to Zuma Rock and the Gurara Falls, city tours, hikes, craft and market walks, and the drivers and guides who make them work.
Event organisers & festivals
Concerts, exhibitions, film festivals, marathons and cultural weekends. The events calendar is built to be the place people check first.
Attractions & institutions
Galleries, museums, parks, places of worship, arts villages and the cultural bodies that run them.
Brands, agencies & government
Airlines, telecoms, banks, embassies, tourism boards and destination marketers looking to reach visitors and residents in one place.
Six ways to partner, combined to fit you
Most partnerships combine two or three of these rather than a single line item. We will recommend the ones we think will make the biggest difference for you.
Featured listings
A permanent, written entry on the guide page your customers already read (Attractions, Eat & Drink, Stay & Transport or Nightlife & Events) with original photography, opening hours and a link straight to your booking.
Events calendar
Your event listed, dated and photographed on our events calendar, and pulled onto the homepage when it is one worth building a weekend around. Feature your event →
Sponsored guides & features
A full article on your neighbourhood, your kitchen, your festival or your route, written by us to be read, and labelled as sponsored.
Photography & content
We shoot in Abuja every week. Partners can commission photography and short-form video of their space and use it on their own channels as well as ours.
Campaign partnerships
Seasonal and themed campaigns, such as December in Abuja, the rainy season or a festival week, built across the site, the newsletter and social.
Destination & trade partnerships
Longer arrangements with tourism boards, airlines, embassies, hotel groups and associations who want Abuja represented properly to a travelling audience.
From first email to a partnership that works
Simple, personal and quick. You will always know what you are getting and what it costs.
You tell us about it
What you run, where it is, who you are trying to reach and what has and has not worked for you before. A paragraph is enough to begin with.
We come back with a fit
We look at where you would sit on the guide, what we could photograph and what we think is worth doing, with a clear proposal and price.
We build it
We write it, shoot it and publish it, and you see everything before it goes live.
We keep it current
Menus change, rooms are refurbished, new nights launch. We keep your listing accurate, because a listing that goes stale is worse than none.
We grow it together
We share the visits we send you and suggest what to do next, from a seasonal campaign to a new feature.
Good to know
What does a partnership cost?
It depends on what you need. A single featured listing costs far less than a year-round campaign with photography and features. Tell us what you run and what you want to achieve, and we will send a clear proposal and price within 24 hours.
Do you only work with big or luxury businesses?
No. Some of the most-read places on the guide are independent restaurants, small guesthouses and local guides. If a visitor to Abuja could spend an evening, a night or a weekend with you, there is a place for you here.
How long does a partnership last?
You choose. Some partners start with a single season or event and others work with us all year. We review results with you along the way so you always know what you are getting.
Will partner content be labelled?
Yes. Sponsored and partner content is always labelled. Readers trust the guide because it is open with them, and that trust is what makes your presence on it valuable.
Can you photograph our space?
Yes. Original photography and short-form video can be part of any partnership, and you are free to use it on your own website and social channels.
How do we get started?
Email info@visitabuja.org or use the contact form with a few lines about your business. We reply within 24 hours.
Let’s build something together
Tell us who you are, what you run and who you want to reach. We read everything that comes in, and we reply within 24 hours.
