What people are saying about Accra

A long day but packs a lot in - 2 castles and a rainforest, with a good lunch in a beautiful restaurant looking over a bird sanctuary. Our guide was very very good, gave us lots of information without overloading us, and dealt calmly with emergencies (a tyre blow-out!) along the way. We felt very safe with him. Very much enjoyed our day out.

Emmanuel was very professional and personable. Gave me distance but was always within a range where if I needed anything he would be there promptly. He drove around all day for me and was just a really cool guy. Protect him at all costs and pay that man good because he’s a great worker.

Ishmael was a safe driver and very courteous. On the outward part of the trip he was a wealth of knowledge about modern history of Ghana ( 1930-present day) as well as the history of Cape Castle. Well done

Our guide Eugene and excellent driver David were very knowledgeable and professional. We felt safe and had a wonderful time with them. I would definitely recommend them again. Fantastic!!

The tour was excellent. The tour guide even better. Anytime again with Kaya Tours in Ghana
