Saying that this was the best day of my trip is an understatement. My favourite was the botanical gardens with our learned botanist as a guide who showed us all the beautiful flora & was able to explain in detail. It was nice to have a knowledgeable guide. The cocoa farm experience was also really good & our guide as well, also knowledgeable. Also the sweet treats were great! Eben then took us to the falls which were really majestic. Great trip & day with Eben & I really appreciated how he explained the sites. You can tell he’s really proud of his country & loves it.
