A great walk in the Ghanaian savanna. The closest place to Accra, which is ideal for a day trip. Visiting the museum of the reserve where you can see and touch different skin and skulls of animals. Perfect place to see baboons and green monkeys, zebras and ostrich (inside fens). Unfortunately there were not antelopes in our day. Edna is very friendly and considerate person. Thank you!

The first issue was with communication, which wasn't great. I was only informed of my pickup time on the morning of the trip. Furthermore, the price seems very high for what you get. Realistically, you could just order a taxi or Uber and pay the fees at the reserve yourself (admittedly, this will be a hassle because their pricing system is quite strange). You would probably pay half if not less. It's worth noting that a guide is included with the tour, but as you will have one at the reserve anyway, one might question the necessity of this additional expense.
The reserve itself is quite nice. The fenced-off zebras and ostriches were a bit underwhelming, but their guide was quite knowledgeable about the history of the Shai people and also showed us around the small museum. The landscape and small rock climb were by far the most beautiful parts. Taking in the silence of the savannah was a great pleasure. Sadly, as always on such guided tours, you won't have too much time to enjoy yourself.
All in all, I think you should definitely visit the reserve, but do it on your own to save money and organize your time yourself!
Cheers.
