About

Meet Chiamaka Obuekwe, the Social Prefect.

Chiamaka earned the "Social Prefect" nickname at work for being the one who organised everyone's social lives — then turned the nickname into a travel company that has flown over 10,000 Nigerian socialites to places most of them had only ever seen on Instagram.

She founded Social Prefect Tours in 2015 after her blog readers kept asking if they could come along on her trips. From a Lagos City tour that year to Christmas in Singapore in 2026 — eleven years, forty-plus destinations and a 5.0★ Google rating in between.

"If you didn't take a picture, it's like it never happened. So, it's better you didn't even go there." — Chiamaka, in The Guardian Nigeria.

Frequently asked

Before you book.

How does the deposit plan work?

You hold your spot with a deposit, then pay the balance in instalments on a schedule we agree with you up front — not a surprise balloon payment two weeks before departure. For most international trips the deposit is a percentage of the total; WhatsApp us for the exact figure for your trip.

What's actually included in a trip price?

Varies by trip — generally return flights, visa processing, 4★ or 5★ hotel, daily breakfast, airport transfers, and the activities listed in the itinerary. See the tours page for each trip's "Includes" line. Visas, food beyond breakfast, and personal shopping are not included unless specified.

Do you handle the visa for me?

Yes, for every international trip we run — we send a document checklist, help you book the appointment, draft the cover letter, and prep you for the interview. Our visa win rate across the last 12 months is high and we'll tell you up front if your profile looks risky before you commit.

I'm a solo traveller — will I feel out of place?

No. The majority of our group trips have solo travellers. Rooms are paired with same-gender roommates (we match thoughtfully) and the group gels fast — most travellers walk away with friendships that outlast the trip.

Can you plan a private trip or honeymoon?

Yes — we run private tours and honeymoons alongside group trips. WhatsApp Chiamaka directly on 09166709829 with your rough dates and budget and we'll put a quote together.

Where exactly are you based?

12 Caroline Atounah Street, Lekki Phase I, Lagos. Walk-ins by appointment only — fastest route is WhatsApp first.

What's your refund policy?

Depends on how far from departure you cancel and what's already been booked on your behalf (flights, hotel deposits, visa fees are often non-refundable). We're transparent about this at the point of booking — you'll see the schedule in writing before you pay.
