Had an amazing day with good friends and new friend Kofi. We learned a lot of Kumasi history, history of the of the Asante people and some good laughs. Did a bit of Kente weaving, saw the beautiful campus of Kumasi University, and enjoyed a magical naming ceremony. Kofi was good natured and accommodating which isn't always easy is a group of 6. Would definitely book with him again and in fact have already planned the next adventure.

We had an amazing experience with Kofi and his team. From the kente weaving, naming ceremony and all the stops in between, the little details made the day very special for, myself, my mom and my friends. Learning a bit of Twi and sampling street food were unexpected but super fun. This was more that just a tour. It was like hanging out with close friends. This was not my first trip 'home'. I am certain it won't be my last and I will look to book with this team, again and again.
