All Accra Tours & Excursions in 2026

Polite, efficient driver/guide able to narrate city landmarks and markets. Excellent professional guides at the Dr. Kwame Nkrumah museum and at the National Museum of Ghana. Note that the Center for National Culture is actually an extensive flea-market type setup with a mixture of authentic Ghanaian art, Chinese-made "fakes," and old leather products. It's difficult to know what anything is actually worth, so I ended up not buying anything, despite the constant (and I mean constant) solicitations of the vendors.

My friends and I were fortunate enough to have the experience of cooking with Auntie K. Her place was conveniently located in Accra and we were greeted with a warm welcome. We were asked to meet at 10 a.m. and I am grateful that she chose that time because it can get a bit warm cooking over an open flame in the peak heat of the day. However, there were trees for shade, we were given fresh coconut water, and ice cold water. All these things helped tremendously to keep us comfortable. We cooked grilled chicken, jollof rice, smoked tuna, cabbage, and kelewele. Each and every dish had amazing flavor and there was plenty of food to enjoy. I would definitely recommend this experience to other travelers.

This was an amazing experience! Going to Makola Market as someone not from this area would have been very challenging. Ben escorted us every step of the way and helped us to get the very best deals! We would have truly been lost without his guidance and it was worth the cost. We are thankful to have him lead the way!

A must-visit if you travel to Ghana. Cape Coast Castle, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a place with a striking history that deserves to be known. Our guide was very committed throughout the visit, explaining every detail with passion and answering all our questions. A very enriching and recommendable experience to understand a fundamental part of the country's history.

Loved this tour. Our tour guide and driver were very good. The vehicle was very nice. Water was provided. Tour guide was very knowledgeable, helpful, kind and patient. The naming ceremony was awesome. The village people were so warm and welcoming. A very incredible and memorable experience.

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 family and I really enjoyed this experience. The instructor was patient and kind, and we learned to play traditional drums quickly. He also taught us a traditional dance and song. He was gracious, and his teaching style made it easy for us to pick things up. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.

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.
