I so enjoyed the full day with Stellar tours. He knew so much about Ghana history. We went to the bead market, checked out the three palm trees, walked 250 steps down to see the twim boti waterfalls (which we had to walk back up...????I have to get back in the gym????) sat under the umbrella stone for a spell while sipping on some refreshing palm wine (I could have taken a nap). Great experience and I would definitely recommend Stellar tours????

Nilsson was fantastic tour guide. Due to concerns that we would not be able to get a train back from Ghent, we wound up going to Antwerp instead. Bilson was so knowledgeable and fun. She adjusted the tour to my interests which was pretty much to experience as much as possible. I know I saw more in a few hours with Bilson than I would have seen in an entire day with most guides. I highly recommend him tours!
