My partner and I did a seven-day tour of the greater Accra region with Hassan, visiting everything from Kakum and Elmina Castle, to Boti Falls and the W.E.B. Du Bois Museum. Hassan did a great job of explaining the recent urbanization and changes going on in the city, the culture here, and all Ghana's impressive political history.
As we were both pretty unfamiliar with the area, we had a million and one questions, which he was happy to answer with interest and patience.
What I really appreciated was that Hassan was extremely communicative and prompt, and that our driver Rashid proved a safe and steady guide through the streets of Accra. The trip had a few bumps that no one could have expected, including bad weather and bad traffic, but Hassan and Rashid helped us make the most of it and provided us with plenty of options to make up for anything we might have missed. We did tons of things that weren't on the itinerary, which made me feel like Tichama Tours isn't just interested in getting you in and out of the door, but personally invested in making sure you enjoy your stay and get full exposure to all the best parts of the city. It's really rare to find people and businesses who are so genuinely passionate about the work they do, and don't make you feel like a transaction.
My only recommendation for future travelers would be to spend more than 7 days here, as there are so many sights to see!
If you're looking for an expert guide, a friendly local to show you around Accra, and an organized way to see all that Accra and Ghana have to offer, I 200% recommend Tichama Tours!
