An Amazing Day touring the City of Accra with the the Best Tour guide!!! - The outstanding reviews for this tour company are well deserved, as they truly offer an enriching itinerary, and we could not have asked for a better tour guide than Emmanuel. We explored many of Ghana’s cultural and historical sites, transitioning smoothly from one to the next without feeling rushed, fully appreciating each stop thanks to our tour guide. Emmanuel was a delight to work with from start to finish; he was punctual and took the time to answer our many questions, showcasing his extensive knowledge of Ghana's social, cultural, and political history.
It was clear that he knows his history, but we also appreciated his kind, friendly, humble demeanor. We had the best time, and by the end of the day, we felt like we had made new friends—our tour guide and another tourist in our group. It was truly a wonderful experience.
We highly recommend this tour because we got to see amazing places, learn, laugh, and leave with lasting memories that we will surely treasure forever!

Amazing Ghana Tour with Thompson - Thompson was an excellent tour guide for me and my fiancée. He is a Ghanian, I am from US and this was my first time in Africa. Thompson was professional, thorough and very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Ghana. I will definitely recommend Thompson as a tour guide to other friends and family. The Ghana experience was amazing with him!!

A Memorable Experience in Ghana! - I had an amazing tour today! Eben, who was my tour guide, was a very kind and generous gentlemen. Not only did I enjoy sightseeing, but I also enjoyed the casual conversations I had with him on the car rides. I learned so much about Ghana’s history and culture!

- The tour was fantastic and so informative. My knowledge of Ghana was minimal and this tour really gave me a good sense of the country as a whole and Accra individually. As good as the tour was, it would not have been as good as it was without our guide, Thompson. What a exceptional young man with tons of enthusiasm and knowledge. He went out of his way to ensure we had the best possible tour - and it was. I cannot recommend the tour enough and if you are lucky enough to have Thompson as your guide, you will have a great day!!

Amazing tour! Great guide! - We had a super fun and informative city tour! We visited three museums and came away with tons of fascinating historical insights. One of the highlights (or lowlights?) was the chaotic art market — a total madhouse, but thankfully our amazing guide, Eben, made it a breeze. He helped us negotiate prices, kept us out of trouble, and even taught us a few local words.
Despite being a bit behind schedule, the tour never felt rushed. Eben was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure we got great photos along the way.
We ended the day at a fantastic restaurant offering both local and international dishes — perfect for every taste. Couldn’t recommend this experience more!
