I really enjoyed this tour. I got a little more educated. I also would like to say congrats to the tour Guide Stephen. this Guy helped a lot, very keen on a lot of subjects. when I return again I hope to have his services again. GREAT JOB.
Thanks for your great review. Much appreciated
This was a really full day with an early (on time) start. The swinging bridges at Kwame National Park are a bit scary but there is lots of support and guidance, and a real feeling of accomplishment to do it! Visiting Elmina and Cape Coast Castles of course is deeply moving, emotionally difficult but important for a European to experience. I will not forget.
Hi Carl we really appreciate your review and do look forward to serving you and all our patrons better in future. Thank you.
The tour operator was on time. He was very professional and knowledgeable. This is a full day tour, bring comfortable shoes
We really appreciate taking time off to review this tour. Thanks for coming
John was my tour guide and he took very good care of me. The tours of the slave castles were heartbreaking, solemn and sad, but a necessity. My soul felt at home and to return 400 years after the Transatlantic slave trade began was priceless. I will forever be grateful for my journey of completion - and this tour was instrumental in that!
Hi Melva it was our pleasure to playing a key role in your return. This will always be your home. Thanks for the review.
We spent a wonderful day with our tour guide Prince. The day started on time and we were treated to a relaxing drive to Cape Coast where we visited the Kakum National Forest, Elmina Castle, and Cape Coast Castle. All along the way, Prince told us about the history and customs of the areas we were seeing. We also stopped at a small roadside family-owned and operated palm oil business where we were shown the processes necessary to extract the oil from plants. We would recommend Prince to anyone seeking a leisurely and informative day tour from Accra.
We are very grateful for your great review. We look forward to serving you again in future. Best regards
