We had a great time with Modesta! Our tour had to be altered, Modesta let us know in advance and planned our day to be exciting and educational. She always had a smile and narrated our tour as we traveled. She took good care of us and showed us some “out of the way” places. Modesta was great!
Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful review. We are thrilled that you loved your experience; Modesta will definitely be happy to read what you wrote.

This tour was such a unique authentic experience . My husband and I wanted to tour the markets of Accra in a safe way with guidance from a local. We were met by our tour guide Modesta and our wonderful driver . Modesta taught us how to bargain and was very tentative to our needs during the entire tour. She also ensured I got home safely and checked up on me and my husband. If you are looking to tour the markets in Accra please book a tour with Hausa Tours it’ll be worth it.

Would have liked to spend more time at the Makola Market. Otherwise it was a good opportunity to see various markets.

This was a good experience because our guide and driver were great! Unfortunately, our family is not good at haggling at the markets and we felt slightly overwhelmed. However we met some very nice people who we did purchase some great products from! Recommend if you would like an authentic experience!
