Itinerary
Embark on a half/ full day city tour of Accra visiting the Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and Park, final resting place of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, the first President of Ghana. The Mausoleum has been visited by many world dignitaries.
Stop at the Independence Square, Accra’s open-air ceremonial grounds where all national celebrations are held, for photo opportunity.
Visit the uniquely designed caskets shop where caskets are produced based on the African belief of life after death. Therefore caskets are designed to reflect the earthly profession of the deceased with the belief that they can continue to practice this profession in the other world. Hence a bus driver will be buried in a bus, a teacher in a book, a doctor in a syringe, etc.

We had an excellent experince with Modesta as our guide and Michael our driver. My Uncle isn't that mobile and they took great care and consideration of this. Modesta is so knowledgeable and she goes the extra mile with snippets of information about life in Ghana as you travel between your touristic venues. I highly recommend Hausa Tours and if you should be lucky enough to get Modesta you will find her to be so charming and she goes the extra for you.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We are proud of Modesta and Michael for delivering such thoughtful service. Your feedback means a lot to our team, and we are grateful for your recommendation. Safe travels, and we hope to see you again.
Even though I have been to Accra many times , had never taken the time to visit the key tourist spots. The Accra city tour brought the city to life in a way we hadn’t experienced before from Jamestown to Independence square , the museum , Nkrumah memorial and the craft market to name a few . The bus was well air conditioned and comfortable, the tour guide very pleasant and knowledgeable. He made sure that we got guided tours at every location which provided additional insight . Learned a lot about Ghanaian history and culture especially the links to Nigeria - i.e. The Gan’s were originally from Ile ife in Nigeria !
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted that our Accra City Tour gave you a fresh and exciting perspective of the city, even after several visits. It’s great to hear that you enjoyed the comfort of our bus, the historic highlights, and the additional insights from our guide. We truly appreciate you choosing Hausa Tours and hope to explore even more with you soon!
Our trip was Epic! The level of detail, care, and attention was unmatched. This trip was amazing from the night life, museums, historic places, last bath at slave river, castle, dinner with the King, naming ceremony, and SHOPPING… I feel completely fulfilled and pleased with the service and tour I received. I would definitely recommend using Hausa Tours… You will not be disappointed.

Thank you so much for your powerful words and trust! We’re honored to have served you and can’t wait to welcome you back home again. Much love! ❤️
Our tour guide extraordinaire Fuseini Nawarui and the staff of Hausa Tours were the best. We were pampered and educated on the customs and traditions of Ghanian culture. From Accra to Kumasi and Cape Coast and areas in between. Many of us that have read about or have connections were able to rekindle our spirit each and every day of this 10 day tour. The foods were excellent but most of all the hospitality and genuine attention of the people to our visit was second to none. This was our initial visit and we are planning on returning soon.
Thank you for your heartfelt words! We’re honored to have been part of your journey and look forward to welcoming you back.
It was a wonderful experience going with my family, and everything went smooth. Thanks to Modesta too, who was more than amazing.

My visit was one of the highlights of my life. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and had many local contacts in Ghana Togo and Benin. We visited the urban rural and wildlife areas. I even recieve an African name with certificate. I highly recommend Hausa Tours as your ticket to West Africa. Charles McKenzie
Thanks very much for your recommendations and compliments.
I highly recommend using Hausa Tours! They are knowledgeable and professional coupled with a sincere warmth and friendliness that made me feel like family. I learned about the history, culture, people and present condition of Ghana. I know I could not have developed this deep understanding and appreciation for Ghana without Hausa Tours.
Thanks very much for your recommendations and compliments.
