A great experience, glad we did it.

You have to be mobile and it does require some steep climbing. The views are beautiful in the mountains and on the lake and we learned a lot. The guides were great.

Would definitely do again! Shout out to Peter, Tour Guide

Great Trip with Peter! I was on this excursion as a solo traveler with 2 other solo travelers. This review is about the excursion company not the cruise itself which is operated by a separate company: I was picked up on time, perhaps even a bit early. I was told to manage my expectations in Ghana- that time is flexible. I can offer that the pick up time was confirmed the night before for both tours I booked with this company and the guides arrive in time or a little early- Perfect! The transport vehicle was modern and had excellent AC for this trip. The other trip less modern but still comfortable and cool. The trip was as described. Now that I’ve traveled with a different local tour company, I can compare and contrast the differences- and this was significantly better. The journey was long but comfortable. Cold water came readily. No loud music. Pleasant sounds and smells throughout. Have I mentioned this company was significantly better than others I encountered on my trip to Ghana? Clean bathroom facilities are a must and I recall asking the preferred location to use the bathroom and got helpful advice! Thanks again Peter. Great eatery at the Lake, appropriately, highly recommended. Peter suggested we order first and the food was ready when we got back from the beautiful trip on the water. We weren’t rushed to eat and get back on the road- much appreciated. The handoffs to the site tour guides was seamless. The individuals with whom we traveled the two sites were lovely, informative, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. 10/10 day trip

The guide Emmanuel was...

Ian_C, Dec 2025

The guide Emmanuel was fantastic and super helpful. It was great to have power and WiFi in the vehicle. The vehicle itself was really comfortable. The land reserve tour was a bit short. The river boat ride was lovely but also more brief than I expected. It's hard to do a lot in a day, but we spent the majority of the time driving to places as opposed to enjoying them.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear Emmanuel took great care of you and that you enjoyed the comfort, power, and WiFi in the vehicle. We appreciate your honest feedback about the timing of the activities—this helps us improve our itineraries to make the balance even better.
