Our guide Michael was amazing, he is full of information and stories. We had 6 very interesting stops, some of them were interesting museums where local guides did the guiding and we could learn all about Ghana’s history. We also visited the Ghana large open market which is huuuuuge. Michael took us to the top of the building that gives a great overview of the size of the market and explained the history behind it and how it functions. He also helped us buy things and bargain. The tour was amazing, thanks also to the driver. The van was airconditioned and water was provided as well. As a Tourguide in Berlin I can highly recommend this tour if you want to get a good overview of Accra and learn about Ghana’s history.

Michael is a great tour guide! En route to our stops, he provided insights into the local culture and history; being careful to leave much of the commentary for the site tour guides. These are the sites visitors come to Accra to see and we saw all of them. He was very solicitous to each member of the group; although I booked as a solo traveler, there were 8 people on our excursion- 4 of us solo travelers. Everyone knew the others by first name and country of origin before stop 1. Michael also provided a seamless Makola Market experience- which is tough to do in that footprint and human congestion. I got all the tchotchkes I was looking for and some. I recommend comfortable and closed toe shoes - the streets near the markets have lots of dirty puddles and it wasn’t raining. Everything was as it is described except the timing was longer. Michael was careful not to rush us and this made for a longer day- don’t try to overbook your appointments if taking the tour. Would definitely recommend
Great cultural excursion

We enjoyed learning about Ghana’s history, W.E.B. Du Bois’ Ghana connection, and visiting the Makola Market. It was nice that my husband and I were the only ones on the tours. Our guide Emmanuel was friendly, personable, and knowledgeable!

It’s good for me to explore more different areas in Accra to open my eyes more interesting where I was born there long time ago. My guide is friendly and helpful to make sure that I can access anything absolutely appreciated and happy. Museums are very good … Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park is absolutely amazing and beautiful … it’s wonderful to look a circle panorama in Black Star Square which is excellent to see each other place around this square area really fascinating. I’m also happy to meet more friendly and lovely Ghanaians in their real culture. 10 out 10 … thumb up !
First time in Ghana!

Michael and Emmanuel were very enthusiastic guides who were easy to speak to and both quite knowledgeable about Accra. During the drives to each location, they shared some key history about Ghana as a whole which added to the experience. It is clear that they enjoy what they do, and ensured the tour ran smoothly.
An experience worth repeating

Thompson was a great guide! His knowledge and charisma made the trip exciting and friendly. He helped us shop, making it easier for us not to be taken advantage of. He recommended other tours that we might enjoy. He answered our questions with ease. The fact that he was born here and has pride in his country added a heartfelt experience I would recommend to all travelers! Thompson and Isaac (driver) know this country/continent. It also showed in the driving skills. They made us feel welcomed and wanted. I hope they get a raise for extraordinary service. They made the tour worth the price, and the experience was world-class.
