Prince is a Travel King!

Lisa_W, Jan 2026
I had an absolutely exceptional experience touring the market with Prince. His tour was generous, thoughtful, and incredibly detailed—and most importantly, deeply personalized to my interest in sewing and garment making. Through Prince, I learned not only how the market functions day to day, but also about market life itself, especially the porters who live and work there to support family members in other parts of the country. That context transformed the market from a place of commerce into a living community with stories, labor, and care woven throughout. Prince also took wonderful photographs throughout the tour, always finding excellent vantage points and moments worth capturing. He introduced me to market seamstresses, and even took me to a tailor where I had something made specifically for myself—an experience I will always treasure. The tour was so meaningful that when a friend wanted to visit the market two days later, I immediately called Prince again. He effortlessly arranged a combined market and city tour. We revisited the market, enjoyed lunch together, and visited the DuBois Pan-African Center, among other stops. Each part of the day felt intentional and well paced. Prince’s car was clean and comfortable, his driving was excellent, and his knowledge—of the city, the history, and the people—was impressive. Above all, he is deeply kind, attentive, and respectful. I would absolutely tour with Prince again and recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a rich, personalized, and meaningful experience.

Fun and crazy markets

Linda_B, Apr 2025
I had a lovely time with Prince. He wore a bright yellow shirt which was easy to spot in the crowded market. Prince is obviously a well liked guide and many of the shopkeepers happily greeted him. He was awesome. I enjoyed my shopping experience with him. Would highly recommend this tour and Prince as a guide
