Kaduna State

Kaduna tour packages join northern Nigeria’s historic cities with the green hills of the south. Kaduna city has the Arewa House museum and the National Museum, while Zaria keeps the walled old city and palace of the Zazzau emirate. Beyond the cities, Kajuru Castle is a fanciful hilltop fortress with views over the countryside, and the Matsirga Waterfalls tumble through Kauru’s forests. Some southern parts of the state are affected by communal tensions, so check advisories, use a local guide and stay on main routes.
