Impressive - It is an impressive experience to see where all the electronic waste finally is dumped but also what people make out of it. If you are around you should really make this excursion.

Unique experience and clear recommendation - So many things to discover there. Great insights and the pure reality about the tough life of the people in this „little town“. You will be definitely touched by this experience.. authentic honest local guides. I would say it is safe to go there in the morning with the guides - would not recommend tondo it alone on your own.

Everybody should see this - Everybody should see this! A truly mind blowing experience and a strong reminder of why we all need to scale down drastically on consumerism. Our guide was really good - also the local guide was great.

Important and insightful - Sadiq and Awal were friendly and explained how people live and work in Agbogbloshie very well. Impossible to see this neighbourhood and the e waste recycling without their guidance.

See it for yourself - I'm glad I did. - I had read about Agbogbloshie in a new book called "Waste Wars," what happens to electronics and appliances from the West? Much of it ends up in Accra to be taken apart for the metals. People work hard to get anything of value and burn the plastic. The workers live across the river, and we walked through the neighborhood - though poor, it is a vibrant community, and I'm glad this tour exists.

A Transformative Experience at the World’s Largest Landfill - The Tour was an eye-opening experience that I will never forget. This tour isn't just about witnessing the stark realities of waste management; it's a profound journey into the heart of environmental issues that affect our planet. From the moment we arrived, our guide shared insightful stories about the history of the landfill and the impact of e-waste on local communities. I was particularly struck by the resilience of the people working at the landfill, finding ways to recycle and repurpose materials that many would consider worthless. The tour also emphasized the importance of awareness regarding the global waste problem, especially concerning electronic waste. Seeing first-hand the scale of the landfill was both shocking and motivating. It served as a powerful reminder of our role as consumers and the need for responsible practices in our daily lives. If you are looking for a tour that not only educates but also inspires action towards sustainability, I highly recommend this experience. It’s a vital step towards understanding the global implications of waste and the importance of caring for our environment. A must-do when in Accra! know!

Agbogbloshie Tour - This was a very eye opening tour and important experience to understand the e-waste and recycling process in Accra. Toufic and the other guides took great care of me and my family and it was obvious they really cared for the community. It was not an easy reality to be confronted with but I would recommend the tour.

Great experience and poor guide at the same time - I have a mixed feeling about this tour. We had three guides withus, Awal and Nunu were INCREDIBLE! Awal helped a lot in coordinating local people for our filming and did a great job guiding us in the dumpsite. Nunu was energetic and extremely friendly. He made us feel at home and helped to translate the local language to English so that everyone can understand. However, the other guide, Sadick didn't meet our expectation by afar. His English was not very clear, neither was he being helping during our filming. He looks always rushy and somehow grumpy. On the second day, we were supposed to close at 4 pm as discussed, but he started to rush and even yell at us at 3:30. He claimed that we wasted a lot of time which in fact he is the one who led us to a restaurant where the service was so slow that we wasted about 1 hour. 5 stars for Awal and Nunu, I star for Sadick.
