Our tour with Emmanuel was a great time! We covered a lot of ground, gained some insight into the history and culture of Ghana, and got some great food as well. Both the guide and driver were very accommodating, and were very friendly. Would highly recommend for travelers, families, couples, or anyone who wants to see the sights in Accra.

I did a 5 day tour of Ghana with Ben and I cannot recommend it enough! Each activity was so enjoyable and Ben was a wealth of knowledge. I was a solo female traveller and Ben made sure that at all times I felt safe and comfortable. His knowledge was excellent, from current affairs to political history, nature and cultural information to general knowledge of Ghana. Any questions I had he would be able to answer. Boti Falls and the Botanical gardens were brilliant. It was a wonderful way to begin the tour. They were lovely walks and really stunning scenery. My favourite visit was the Boabeng-Fiema Village - Ben had worked there previously and was a wealth of knowledge. You could see his passion for the community and the work. We were warmly welcomed by the community and the monkeys. Mavis who runs the guesthouse was absolutely brilliant, I had a cooking lesson with her and she was so patient and we had a good laugh. Cape Coast was an essential visit in my opinion. The history was fascinating and a lot of lessons were learned. In particular, the Kakum National Park was amazing, Our guide, Kwaku, was brilliant and really knew his history about the park. Walking across the canopies was thrilling and breathtaking. If you do not like heights I do not recommend here. Learning about the history of the fabrics in Ghana was brilliant, we also learned about the Cocoa trees and the process of chocolate. Kente is absolutely stunning, be sure to have room in your suitcase for fabric! It is irresistible. The Accra tour was really informative. We saw Independence Square as the sun was setting and it was stunning. I feel very fortunate to have gone to Ghana and having visited the country with Ben and the driver Elisha. We had so many laughs, we had karaoke in the car and in general had a lot of fun. I recommend bringing lots of suncreams and anti-mosquito spray, buy snacks on the first day that will last, and prepare for long car rides. Don't be afraid to ask questions and just have fun. Most of all I recommend booking with Ben! He tailored this trip for me and booked every aspect of it. He made sure I was happy with each hotel/rooms. My safety and smiles were a major priority. He is serious about his business and you could see his professionalism in each activity and in general. The car is pristine with air conditioning and options to play music from your own phone. One of the best trips of my life! Our itinerary included: EASTERN REGION: Visit the Aburi Botanical Gardens Visit the Boti Water Falls Overnight stay at the Eastern Premiere Hotel in Koforidua. (really nice hotel) BONO EAST REGION: Visit the Boabeng-Fiema Monkey Sanctuary Do a community tour of both Boabeng-Fiema villages. Visit the Monkey Priest of the Boabeng-Fiema village. Overnight stay at the Sanctuary guest house. (Mavis was amazing!

Visit the Ntonso Adinkra cloth making village and make your own cloth from this Ancient Ashanti symbols called Adinkra.

Visit the Kakum National Park and experience the Kakum Canopy Walkway. Visit the Cape-coast Castle in Cape-coast. Overnight stay at the Oasis Beach Resort. (AMAZING!!

My girlfriend and I did a two day tour to the monkey sanctuary, Wli Falls, and Mt. Afadjato. It was absolutely amazing. Mohammad and Issac were helpful and encouraging. The Hike was very challenging for me but they kept encouraging me and I made it to the top. It was worth it..This was an amazing tour at a reasonable price. will definately be touring with them again.

Exploring with NaNa , my sisters and I felt welcomed and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start! The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible (picked us up from hotel and dropped us back to hotel) and we were given water and snacks, for that he deserves a special thanks. We had a great day exploring learning about NaNa Kobina, going to learn about cape coast castle , listening to the history being told at Alamina castle and hiking in the Kakum national park. Nana was very attentive to everyone’s needs as we were on our tour. Nana is very knowledgeable about all the history. On the 3 or 4 hour drive to get to the activities he told us history on a lot of things. Nana has such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). My sisters and I enjoyed hiking up to the Kakum national park to reach the 6 bridges.The lunch (full plate of food) at the end was a delight and good it was a great way to end the tour. Nana made sure everyone in our group felt safe and informed on the days events. -Shawanda California, USA December 2019

I booked this tour with three of my friends from New York. Frank met us at our home in Accra promptly at the time he said we would start. He’s very personable, knowledgeable about Accra and very receiving of any of our questions or needs during our time together. We enjoyed our day in Jamestown, seeing Ghana up close. Frank took us to the market where we bought souvenirs and later took us to a location to enjoy our lunch after seeing the sights of the city. I highly recommend Frank for all of your tour needs. Our only regret was prior to coming, we didn’t know Frank did more tours to other parts of Ghana and we would have certainly loved to have had the opportunity to partake in those tours as well. I can’t recommend Frank any higher for your city tour of Accra and Ghana at large. It was an absolute pleasure and I hope to return again soon.

A native Ghanaian who has lived in Labadi its entire life will give you an unique local experience of living in the community, which means be prepared to work! See where we live and how the community functions as a whole. We will spend the morning in the local market picking out all of the ingredients needed to prepare our authentic flavorful meal. You will see the local market women carrying things on their head as they try to sell their products. Once we return to the bar we will start to prepare the meal. You will learn how to "pound" the Banku, Fufu, Jiji or rice balls over the open fire. Then we will prepare the stew or soup of your choice (depending on diet). During this, you can taste several local alcohol spirits to get a fully authentic experience, while you will see the true movement of the community and how people interact with one another while speaking in our local language of Ga. If you want to truly feel what it is like to be a Ghanaian you will love this experience.

Linda is absolutely amazing! Me and my friends had the best time going to the market, cooking and eating the best meal I ever ate in Ghana. I come to Ghana often for work and wanted a real cooking experience and I found Linda in the community. We cooked fufu, ground nut soup, fish and pepper! WOW we truly could not get enough of the amazing food. The entire day was incredible and I highly recommend booking a cooking class with Linda if you want to experience a fun filled day of experiencing how a true Ghanaian lives and cooks.
