Ghana Experience - My tour guide was Foster and the experience with him was excellent. Foster was very friendly and knowledgeable and he answered any questions or concerns that I had with ease. He was very prompt with the pick up time and excellent driving keeping your safety in mind. This was my first traveling to Ghana and he was able to answer any questions and explain the history and life of the people in Ghana.

Awesome Experience - Overall the trip was pleasant. Viator stated the tour would start at 8 am but Foster arrived at 9:15am but he did apologize for being late. Ernest our tour guide at Shai Hills was very knowledgeable and the highlight of the Shai Hills part of our tour. We really enjoyed listening and interacting with Ernest. We did get to see baboons on our way to the next stop which was lunch at The Royal Senechi and the buffet was awesome. The buffet offered gluten free options because I have a gluten allergy. The boat ride was relaxing and enjoyable.
