Accra and Cape Coast Escape

I mostly travel to Ghana for work and this time I decided to book the cape coast trip to connect with my history. Although the tour at both Elmina and Cape Coast Castle was too much for us to take in, we enjoyed every part of the tour. The guides at the castles were very good and I enjoyed my lunch very much at the beach restaurant. I will refer this company to my friends who look forward to coming to Ghana. Thank you Zainab for making this trip possible to do.

This tour came highly recommended based on the tour's reviews and surely proved worthy of it. If you are looking for a day trip full of insights, this would be the best tour to take. The drive to Kakum Park was about 4hours so prepare yourself for the long drive. If you want to avoid traffic, coordinate with your guide about the most suitable pick up time in order to avoid the traffic. The roads leading there are good so it shouldn't be a bumpy ride. If possible bring cash as it is the most suitable mode of payment. You could pay with a card some places but the network is not always stable in that part of the country so it could be a challenge to get the machine to accept payments. The food is really good and Rasheeda helped me select my Lunch. I would surely recommend Red Red if you are looking to try an authentic Ghanaian dish. Rasheeda and the driver were very accommodating to my needs and helped me in selecting souvenirs for my family and friends back home. They deserve a 10 out of 10 for their professionalism and enthusiasm they have for their work. For a solo traveller, it was great to have their company on this trip. Ghana is a beautiful country and the people are very friendly. I would love to visit again with my family in the future and surely take this tour again with them.

Frist, of all I would like to start off by saying the country itself, It's a beautiful, wonderful place, rich with culture and history . Secondly, our complete itinerary was changed , the changes were not communicated well at all. I believe that the changes to our itinerary happened long before we made the trip which just recently happened. We booked our trip in April of 2021. We return home to the states Friday December the 10th 2021. It saddens me to say that I would not recommend anyone to take this tour unless you can finalize things , and get a real understanding of what is going to happen. Communicate with your tour person Is a very important factor. We were in constant communication with her up until the day before we flew out of the U.S . Upon our arrival DAY ONE we were told that hotel arrangements had not been secured " per the itinerary ". Also a few other things that should have been communicated are as follows: -The length of the travel time to each destination -WFi service or access -The change in our total trip/ itinerary. I believe these things make a big difference when you are in a foreign country . I am very well traveled, I've traveled all around the world I've spent time in different places and in different regions and cultures and this this took me by surprise completely. I was not expecting perfection, only transparency. I guess it is just an American thing to pay for something and to get what you pay for. I found that was not the case . " let the buyer beware".
