Review the Cape Coast Day Tour from Accra, covering two historic castles, Kakum’s canopy walkway, transport, timing, cost, and practical tips.

“I had a really good experience on this tour. Pick-up was prompt at the arranged time and the bus itself was comfortable with good Wi-Fi and air-con which made the bumpy roads less uncomfortable. Portia was a great guide and provided interesting information as we drove along. The sites themselves were very interesting with informative guides.”

“I had a great time with Kwame who was very punctual and easy to communicate with. Due to some closures on the day I had picked, he made sure I was able to do those visits on the next day. I did the tour alone and was able to ask all the questions I had on my mind. Kwame is professional, well organized, always willing to help and always respectful. I really enjoyed my tour and recommend it to anyone! Kiki”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 76 reviews · from $70

Review of Accra’s six-hour city tour, covering major landmarks, market life, museums, guides, transport, value, and practical booking tips.

“1. Viator sent me information stating the tour was supposed to start at 8am. I was not picked up until past 9:30. Communication from the tour operator was vague and only came after I sent a message. Several messages went unanswered. 2. My driver, though amiable, was not a trained tour guide. He volunteered no information, and I had to keep asking questions. I received very little of the kind of contextual or background information I have come to expect on a city tour. Essentially, this was a taxi ride to several locations. 3. One of the destinations was not accessible on the day. No alternative was offered. I did…”

Explore Boti Falls, Umbrella Rock, Aburi Gardens, and Ghana’s cocoa story on a practical 7-hour day trip from Accra.

“The Boti Falls trip with guide Ebenezer was fantastic! From the time he picked us up from the hotel, he was sharing history of Accra. He already risked assessed our group with older people that we would struggle with the hike and drove us instead to the Umbrella rock. Eben was very helpful and patient throughout the day, including willingly taking lots of lovely pictures. The whole trip, from the Falls, to the Cocoa farm and Botanical was amazing. The individual guides at the different sites were also great. All in all an excellent experience.”
