With the considered and helpful knowledge of Petra at Afia Tours, we prepared a DIY itinerary which met our specific sight seeing and accommodation requirements. We covered a lot of ground in 10 days with our accommodating driver/companion, Emmanuel, who was reliable and courteous throughout our trip. This was all organised via phone and email and paid for over the internet. To assure us of the legitimacy of our transaction, Enock, the owner of Afia Tours, met us at our hotel at 6am to greet us and introduce us to Emmanuel before we set off on our Ghana adventure. We had no regrets working with Afia Tours and highly recommend them. We had a unique, insightful, enjoyable, unforgettable holiday in Ghana. Tracy & Mike

We visited Ghana from November to December and had a wonderful time thanks to Afia Tours. We created our own tour, based on the "7 Day Back to the Roots" tour, for the Year of Return and Afia did a great job accommodating our changes and wishes. Our tour guide was Appiah and we couldn't have asked for anyone more patient and flexible. He was very knowledgeable and remained professional as we constantly complained about the heat in Ghana hahaha. The most memorable activities were the Canopy Walk, cultural performance, Elmina tour, and traditional cooking class. It's a must do if you plan to go to Ghana with Afia.

I was a party of two, and for our first trip in a long time that didn't evolve around lounging on a Caribbean beach having our wishes fulfilled at every turn like the spoiled American city folk we are, we couldn't have asked for a better experience with Afia! Our minds, emotions, and physical strength was challenged in Ghana and it was so rewarding.

If you're American, living on the eastcoast - I'd definitely suggest you take advantage of the straight flights from IAD to Ghana, book with Afia, let go of expectation, and have a great time!

Afia tours designed an 8-day cultural experience for us five women. Our tour included many must-see stops in Kumasi, Accra, Elmina, and Cape Coast. Our tour guide Cosmos (Ata), was knowledgeable and well-respected by everyone we encountered. Our driver Seth was the ultimate professional who kept us safe on the roads from beginning to end. We even had a bonus intern, Ivy, who was great at interceding for us at the markets with vendors, and she also chronicled our tour by taking some fantastic photos. I highly recommend Afia Tours for large and small groups, and I look forward to bringing back another larger group next year.

My husband & I just returned from a 2wk trip across Ghana (Accra, Kumasi, Cape Coast, Lake Volta), Togo (Lome) & Benin (Ouidah, Cotonou, Porto Novo, Abomey) with Afia Tours. They helped us with hotels, driver, guides & itinerary. Enock & Petra were very patient as we worked out all the details and offered excellent advice throughout.

Our driver & primary guide David was smart, professional, fun/ny, and truly focused on making sure we had a great visit tailored to our interests. He was prompt, flexible & always thought ahead. We also had the most amazing culinary tour of Ghana - courtesy of David's guidance! Delicious :)

A special tour highlight was when we visited the rural cocoa farm of Enock's family, Afia's founder. He parents were absolutely lovely, along with a tour of the village with local elders. We truly enjoyed the richness & diversity of culture, art & history of all three countries we visited.

All in all, a wonderful trip. We would highly recommend a similar itinerary & working with Afia Tours!

I can’t say enough good things about Afia Tours! Enock, Petra and their team was extremely accommodating. My sister lost her passport at the airport in Accra and Afia Tours went above and beyond to help us. In addition, several plans had to be changed due to this unfortunate event. However, Enock and his team always maintained a high level of professionalism and ensured we were in good hands from start to finish. I would HIGHLY recommend Afia Tours, if you plan to visit Ghana and other areas in Africa. They have an amazing team and a portion of their profits goes back into the community (amazing). If you are looking to experience Ghana with a group of highly qualified individuals, Afia Tours is the best. I have traveled all over the world and can tell you with confidence, that their service is no less than 5 stars!

My boyfriend and I just got back from an 11 day trip to Ghana to explore the history and culture. From the start, Afia tours was wonderful about working with me to develop the exact trip I wanted, including adding extra days and setting up birthday surprises for my boyfriend since we were traveling over his birthday.

Once we arrived, our guide was Eric and he took excellent care of us. We were so impressed that since we got home we’ve been recommending our family travel with Afia and try to specifically ask for Eric. No matter what we wanted to do on top of our scheduled activities, Eric took us and made sure it went smoothly. He also really helped us in all the markets to negotiate prices and saved us a lot of money on the souvenirs we bought. He really helped us learn local customs and engage with the locals so we really got a feel for life in Ghana.

I do recommend adding some extra days on to their pre-planned Ghana tours, especially in Accra just to have time to really enjoy and explore the city.

Without expectation, Afia Tours provided our itinerary in Accra and Elmina and we were very happy with the results. It was easy to talk to Petra when we wanted to modify our schedule thank you Petra. Our trip in Accra included a tours of Jamestown, Arts Centre, and WEB Dubios center. Accra was a bustling city where there is always something to do, see and enjoy. Also to mention our driver, Kojo was very knowledgeable on everything Ghana.

After Accra we went to Elmina. In Elmina Afia Toura arranged for us to go to the Cape Coast Slave Castles, Assin Slave River, and The Village of Enocks Family (The Owner of Afia Tours). There was so much history. This part of the trip was a mix of relaxation, spiritual, emotional and calming. My favorite part was visiting Enocks village and learning the rich history!

Thank you Afia Tours. ☺️

This was our second time travelling with Afia Tours (the first in 2019 visiting Ghana, Benin and Togo) and this time in July 2023, spending a week in Ghana.....We enjoyed the first trip so much we had to come back!

Once again, communication and organisation with Petra pre-departure was really easy. She helped put together a wonderful itinerary with fairly short notice, and to some slightly more offbeat places for us, such as New Edubiase and Ankasa Forest.

Our guide was David and he was so fantastic! Knowledgeable, reliable and easy-going with good humour. We always felt well-looked after and it was a real pleasure to spend time together!

We would happily recommend both David ('Mr Tourguide'!) and Afia Tours, and hope we can come back again soon. Thank you! :)

I cannot praise Afia Tours (and especially Petra) enough! They are one of the most professional travel companies that I have ever dealt with, from start to finish. We had planned our trip for 2020, and then Covid came along. Petra immediately offered to return our deposit, but I asked her to keep it as we had every intention of travelling. We finally made it this month, and I am so glad we did. Petra was amazing - there was an immediate and comprehensive answer to each and every one of my many questions. While we were travelling we had an issue which was not in any way related to Afia Tours, however, after talking to Petra, everything was dealt with in the best possible way within 30 minutes. Petra and Afia Tours really are amazing.
We spent 10 days travelling in Ghana with Emmanuel, who was an exceptional driver, polite, attentive and courteous, and always willing to help. We then spent five days in Togo and Benin, with our local French-speaking guide, Valentine. He was an absolute pleasure and shared so much knowledge with us.
In short, Afia Tours is quite exceptional and I can't imagine what our trip would have been like if we had not used their services. I could go on and on praising them, but I won't. I'll just say that they are quite simply the best. Travel through West Africa with them - you won't regret it!

My husband and I found Afia Tours through our friend’s travel company for the first week of our honeymoon in Ghana, and couldn’t have asked for a better guide! Eric worked with us and was endlessly flexible, patient, considerate and welcoming. Each day he was on time to pick us up, and shared lots of helpful knowledge and suggestions about the sites and areas we visited. It was also a huge help for him to use connections and personal experience to help us interact with locals. This week was truly one of the best week’s we’ve had and we owe a lot of that to Eric making things so seamless.
