This was an excellent tour. Our tour guide Winston was very professional, nice, and knowledgeable about the history of Accra and Ghana. We loved all the stops we made, such as the W.E.B. DuBois Centre in Accra. We cannot recommend this tour highly enough. We are already booking our next tour with the same company.

We had a great tour of Accra, visiting numerous interesting places. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Ghana, and provided us with excellent "on location" guides at several of the historic sites and museums.
At the end of the tour we asked him about a convenient place to get great Ghanian food and he offered to take us to one and wait for us. Instead he called in an order, drove by to pick it up, and then took us to our hotel.
Overall the half-day tour was exactly what we hoped for and we would highly recommend this tour, as well as our tour guide Emmanuel.
