Our trip with our tour guide, Freedom was amazing! We started out at Kakum park and hiked a little and did the canopy walk which has amazing views. Freedom made sure I had plenty of pictures! After we visited Cape Coast and the Elmina castle which had a very sad history. The coast was beautiful! Overall, such an amazing experience and Freedom made sure our tour went perfectly!

My tour with Foster was exceptional the entire trip was way more than I expected. Foster is always on schedule with the pick up time and arrangements made for the tour. Foster explains everything to you and answers any questions or concerns you might have and he always ensures you are comfortable hydrated and most importantly safe at all times. I will recommend Foster and the tour company to anyone traveling to Ghana and wishes to experience all the great history that Ghana has to offer. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

My husband and I did this tour as a day trip and had a fantastic time. Foster was truly amazing all through. He picked us up from our apartment in Accra around 5.45am as arranged. We first stopped at the reconciliation roundabout and then later on for breakfast. We got to Kakum national park in record time, toured the park and did the 7 canopy walks. It was simply breathtaking! Then we headed to Elmina Castle before doing Cape coast castle - both of which we really enjoyed, although I must say listening to the stories of the experiences of the slaves tugged at one's heart strings. Foster was amazing throughout as our driver and guide. He got us to the airport in Accra in record time (7pm) as we had to catch our flight by 10.30. My husband and I could not believe how much we managed to do and see in 1 day. Thanks so much Foster for such a lovely experience. If you are planning to go on this trip, Foster is your man!
