Whew, I thought I was gonna die! I was so sick. The waves were out of control! The crew were wonderful taking care of all of us that were sick. Those guys earned every baht!! The snorkeling was amazing. I did not like any of the pictures that were taken because you never had any idea you were getting photographed.

Toufic was terrific, and an excellent guide. I was pleased to learn about Ghana's electronic sustainability; one man's trash really is hundreds of others' treasure/livelihood. Wear closed-toed shoes! Be prepared to feel the privilege of the life you live by the end. I was able to buy groceries at the market and stock up on much-needed water at the end of the tour. I was picked up right at my hotel, and the air conditioning in the vehicle felt great! We were met by a kind local man who showed us his world; he never stopped helping everyone around him really showcasing what community is all about! While I have seen poverty before I was surprised to see the frank difference just a few miles can make between different groups. I really learned about electronics, the importance of recycling, what true happiness means to people, and how to navigate a tight market. I was very pleased with Toufic’s knowledge of the area and wish I had booked more! It took about 3 hours, and by the end I needed a shower, to journal, and to think about how I wanted to use this information to recognize how blessed my life is.

My husband and I were picked up from our AirBnB apartment which was outside of the zone. This was appreciated and the minibus arrived on time and was clean and comfortable. The tour guide, Porscha, was personable, friendly and helpful throughout the tour. It was a great day of education about the history of Ghana and its culture. The only suggestion would be to include a lunch break around 12-1pm as opposed to it being at the end of the tour. Overall a great day.

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.

This trip was one my partner and I were drawn too as our first time in Accra and Africa as a whole - from the moment Samuel (Sammie) picked us up he treated us like family. From teaching us Twi sayings on the drive (and correcting our terrible accents) all the way to giving us space to sleep after a long night. He gave us options, space and ultimately an eye opening experience seeing the castles. 5 stars all around we’ll be back with our family soon!

The Cape Coast guided tour was a meaningful and memorable experience, made even better by Mensah’s (tour host) kindness, patience, and willingness to answer questions. The site tours at Elmina Castle, Cape Coast Castle, and Kakum Park were rich, informative, and thoughtfully paced, offering important historical and cultural context that deepened the experience of visiting Cape Coast. Tips for future travelers: The ride to Cape Coast is quite long (4-5 hours depending on traffic & road conditions). When we traveled, there was ongoing road construction along parts of the route which made the ride very bumpy at times. I highly recommend bringing a small pillow for comfort, snacks and water, medication if you’re prone to motion sickness, and—most importantly—patience. The journey is well worth it, but being prepared will make it much more enjoyable. Overall, this was an excellent tour led by a gracious and personable host. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the highlights of Cape Coast.

I had an absolutely amazing experience today. Jimmy Akiti is someone whose character is perfectly suited to teaching drumming. He is kind, calm and very helpful. I can highly recommend him to anyone who wants to have a truly special experience in Ghana.

My wife and I always book a cooking class when we travel and we were very happy with this option. Auntie K provides clear directions to the meeting point and walks you through the entire process of cooking your dishes. We did not request a specific dish and had Auntie K choose for us. We ended up making jollof Rice and Grilled chicken with boiled plantains and eggs, sauteed cabbage, and greens with smoked tuna. It was hands down the best jollof rice and chicken we had in Accra during our stay and the greens were my favorite out of everything. Be sure to write down the recipe as you cook so you can try to recreate at home. Auntie K was happy to answer any questions we had about the process or anything else that came to mind. You can choose to work as much as you feel like. The process is fulfilling and satisfying to participate and eat. We would recommend to anyone looking to learn how to make local Ghanian dishes at home.
