We were picked up from our hotel, and we’re the only two people in the tour. Ishmael was very knowledgeable about the history of Ghana and Accra. He showed us the main sights in the city. He was very polite and very pleasant. At the end we had lunch, then he drove us back to our hotel.

I had a wonderful tour of Accra with David! We covered so much ground and I was able to enjoy a much more authentic and fun experience of exploring Accra. I was glad to have a guide with me for my first trip to the Makola and to point out sites with historical significance throughout Accra that I would have missed by myself. David has great relationships with people/museum guides at each stop and kept the tour on track and fun. I couldn’t recommend more!

This tour was absolutely amazing! I feel like I got to experience all of Accra in just one day. The tour guide, David, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He ensured that we had the best experience possible and took plenty pictures for us from our phones. I truly enjoyed this experience and would recommend it to others.
