Accra's Essence: 6-Hour Culture & History Expedition

Bernice was an amazing tour guide! She gave us great historical and cultural context for all of the sites. We felt like “explorers” rather than tourists. She even taught us a couple of words in Twi. Michael, our driver, also took good care of us. Most notably, we also really benefitted from her help and wisdom in the Makola market. Really glad we do not have to navigate that on our own — it would have been overwhelming. Great photo opportunity from a “Birds Eye” view, also helped us prepare for the chaos down below. I will be returning home, now wanting to read more about W.E.B. DuBois, and especially Kwame Nkrumah.

Had a great experience. Tour guides are pleasant & knowledgeable. Van was roomy with great A/C. We went through several districts of Accra.

Completely amazing experience, from start to finish!! We had a group of 18 people and they were totally accommodating. We learned, laughed and were welcomed home. They were professional and took great care of us. I highly recommend!!

My husband, friend, and I had a wonderful time on the Experience the Beauty, History and Culture of Accra in a Day tour. Our guide, Elijah, was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating, he even let us stop for lunch, though it wasn’t originally included. We learned so much about the history of Accra and truly enjoyed the experience. A few tips: eat before you go, pack water and sunscreen, and bring patience, Ghana’s sun and traffic are no joke! We were picked up around 9am and dropped off around 4pm, so it’s a full day. One thing to note: we were a bit surprised that the tour vehicle was an older Toyota Corolla. It did have AC, and since it was just the four of us, it worked fine, but with more people, it would’ve been tight. Overall, we had a great day and would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore Accra’s rich history and culture.

I had a wonderful experience with Elisha as my driver and guide. The tour allows shopping time at the 2 markets but dependent on your group's desires. Jamestown portion is drive-through only. We ended with lunch (not included) in Osu, which was the perfect conclusion.

Had a great one day Accra tour with Ben. He's a really knowledgeable and friendly guide and the tour was a great introduction to the beauty and history of Ghana's capital city. Many thanks for a great tour. Highly recommended.

Great tour! Ben was very knowledgeable and a fabulous guide, I saw and learnt so much. A very well organised day with lots to see and do. I’d highly recommend this tour.

I'd highly recommend! A great way to discover Accra with a super friendly and knowledgeable guide. I got lucky and it ended up just being me on the tour. It meant that I could tailor things to my preferences, with Emmanuel showing me all the best spots to shop in the market and he even made an extra stop at a cashpoint for me.

This is a detailed visit of Ghana covering some of the main history of the city of Accra. Emmanuel was kind and checked in often to make sure guests were comfortable. Appreciative of the openness to questions and was very professional. You get the experience you make. Kwame at the Dubois centre was very knowledgeable and the view of the market was amazing. A great indepth exeprience

A city full of rich history and culture from Airport City to the coast. Many unexpected nuggets of information and insights about Our (African) History that has been distorted and/or omitted all together.
