We highly recommend Landtours.

We learned so... read more much more than any typical tour as they shared their own insights and experiences with us. The bus was in great condition and they always had our comfort and safety in mind.
I would definitely recommend LandTours for either their guided tours or a custom itinerary.

  General: Successful expedition, reaching the 3 highpoints of the countries

Car: Good car, we could have managed with a smaller one. Some of the roads could have been difficult... read more if we had rain, but we managed without 4WD

Hotels: Trouble at all places. They did not have 3 beds at any of the places, but it was fixed after some waiting tme. Swimming pool only available in Accra. In Abomey they only have one room with one bed and no aircondition. We refused to stay there, and after a while they had fixed another hotel. In Kara and Abomey we ended up with 2 of us in beds and one sleeping on a madrass on the floor.

Guide in Ghana: Average. It was a great experience for him to get to the highpoint of Ghana, so I think he is happy

Guide in Togo/Benin: Poor. He did not meet up at the Togo border, then he was in Lome. We met him at Agou. He did not know the route, and had trouble finding the way. No map, only a phone with GPS, that did not work at all locations. I also had a feeling that he was not able to read the GPS map on his phone properly. Luckily I had downloaded a map for most of the route to my Garmin GPS, and that helped us. In some areas I did not have a good map on my GPS. In these situations they had to stop and ask people along the road. The guide misleaded us several times, and I had to check and correct. His english was not the best, even if he was an english teacher.

Driver: Excellent. He really did the job for us on this trip. Very good driving on all type of roads at any time. Day 3 was very long. We started early and had a long drive on difficult roads up to the Ghana peak. Then some trouble with wrong navigation around Agou due to mistakes from the guide. Very long drive up to Kara, ending up in the dark just before Kara. There the guide leaded us to a road with oneway traffic coming against us over a bridge. We got stuck on the bridge and had to reverse with traffic coming towards us, and a lot of motorbikes coming from behind on this narrow bridge. I admire the driver for staying calm in such a situation, especially after 12 hours on the road with very small breaks. He also had to cover up for the mistakes done by the guide in Togo/Benin. Actually he was the guy that fixed everything in Togo/Benin, and we would have done better without the guide.

Value for money: I think the trip was very expensive, and we had expected more quality, especially regarding the hotels. When arriving at a hotel after a long day, hungry and tired, we no not want trouble with the rooms.

  The tour was perfect. We traveled some local and historical places in Accra and Cape Coast. Every moment was well-prepared and organized. Especially, the tour guide, David and the driver,... read more Francis are kind and professional. They answered all the questions related to local places and history and they tried to support all the experience that we can get. I truly enjoyed my journey in Ghana, so I hope to travel again. It was amazing and I highly recommend others to visit Ghana with David and Francis. Thanks.

  I have organized trips to Liberia, West Africa for several years and knew I had a heart for Africa. Then in 2013 I had the opportunity to do a Ghana... read more Summer Study Abroad that my university had Landtours host. It was a life-changing experience! I knew I had to visit Ghana again.

This year I organized a group of 12 individuals on a 8 day cultural tour using Landtours as the in-country host. Once again, neither Ghana nor Landtours disappoint. We had an Amazing journey through many of the ancestral sites of Ghana. Our driver (Stephen) and guide (Elvis) made sure we were safe and welcomed from the moment we arrived. I joked that our guide was like a rooster counting his chicks every time we got on our air-conditioned tour bus. He is so knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. He made Ghana come alive for each and everyone of us. I'm already planning my next group and will definitely request that Elvis be our guide.

I have only one compliant and that is that is was too short. My next trip will be at least 10 days. Even that is not enough to see, hear and smell all the wonderful history, sounds and magic that Ghana has to offer. Too often I hear people say, "Africa is on my bucket list". I want folks to know that it doesn't have to be. Visiting the Motherland is possible. For those of us of African origins in the diaspora it should be a "must" visit. Every year we give our money to cruise ships and amusement parks; we can definitely save and spend our coins at home where it is needed and appreciated.

I plan on going to Ghana at least once every year, taking as many folks willing to come and using Landtours as my in-country host. Akwaaba Ghana 2019 is already in the works! Landtours get ready!
