Superb tour of Makola Market
My wife and I embarked on a tour with Prince, who was a wonderful tour guide that walked us through the history of the Makola market. Excellent tour and could not recommend this higher.

Sunday shopping trip to Makola Market
My husband and I had a wonderful experience exploring the market with Prince as our guide. We went to the market on Sunday midday and it was not crowded. Prince was a very professional, helpful, and courteous guide. And he customized the experience to what we were interested in. I would recommend taking this tour and our guide, Prince.

The best way to Accra's markets
Having a tour to go through the markets was the best choice. Our guide, Prince, was knowledgeable friendly and helped us develop and fine-tune our negotiating skills at the market. I recommend this activity to anyone!

Makola Market
  • The market is generally pretty warm and welcoming, but it can also be a prime location for pickpockets. Keep your wits about you and your valuables out of sight. You may also want to use a decoy wallet or leave your purse or backpack at your accommodation.

  • Bring cash, shopping bags, and plenty of water, as the market can be very hot and crowded. You’ll also want to wear comfortable shoes—you may put in a lot of steps at the market.

  • Makola Market was once featured on an episode of No Reservations; make like Anthony Bourdain and try distilled palm wine (akpeteshie) and condensed milk toffee.
