    Poor Experience

    The location was easy to find using GPS. The facility was clean. Restrooms were available. Staff was ok. He was not enthusiastic at all. Once we arrived, the host seated us and brought us water. About 5 minutes he served the first dish. He did not explain what it was or anything related to the dish. 30 minutes later, a second dish was served. Again, no explanation of what the dish was. Finally, I pulled up the description of what was to be expected. I discussed with the waiter that none of the dishes we were served were described in the description of what to expect. We were served only two of the described dishes and only after I brought it to their attention. Almost an hour and a half had passed before we even got those dishes. Although the meals were hot, the food was sub par. Overall, the experience was poorly orchestrated and over priced. I do NOT recommend this experience.

    Food tasting

    This was a great food tasting. We were able to sample a number of delicious Ghanaian dishes in a local restaurant. This was a great way to taste various Ghanaian foods without having to walk around for a street food tour. Chef P did a wonderful job of telling us about each dish and making us feel welcome. The food was delicious! I would recommend eating no breakfast or only a very small breakfast as there was a lot of food to eat. You will definitely enjoy this food tasting.

    Israel and chef Porschia...

    Israel and chef Porschia were amazing. They made me feel really welcome and the portions were really generous!

    Response from the operator: Thanks a lot Carolyn for the lovely feedback and we look forward to having you again :)

    More than I expected

    As a frequent visitor to Accra Ghana from the UK, I was not sure what to expect given past experiences with operators. I was taken aback by the staff at Efie Lounge. Our host, Portia and co-host Nadia welcomed us with local drink Sobolo and Palmwine. From then on, it was a barrage of different Ghanaian food freshly made in an open kitchen at Efie Lounge. We had: Coco yam porridge, Boiled eggs with pepper, Waakye with beef,egg and wele stew and much more. I was expecting just tapas level of feeding, but instead we were belly full at the end of the experience. This is A+++ experience for anyone visiting Ghana.

    Response from the operator: Thanks Stephen for the lovely feedback. We would keep working on ensuring to meet everyone's dietary requirements in course of the tasting experience

    Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Accra.

    How much does Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks cost?

    +

    Prices start at $54 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Accra usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Accra is not rushed.

    Is Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Accra, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Accra can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Accra and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Accra within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Accra?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Accra experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Experience the Beauty, History and the Culture Of Accra in a Day, Cape Coast Castle, Elmina Castle & Kakum National Park Day Tour, Accra Guided City Tour: Cultural and Historical Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Accra?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Accra?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks?

    +

    Included: English Guide; Free WIFI; and Food and Drinks at the tasting experience. Not included: Gratuities; and Personal Expenses. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks?

    +

    If using Uber/Bolt or Taxi, do mention GA Municipal Assembly (this is less than 5 mins walk from us). Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Ghanaian Food Tasting Experience with Music and Drinks offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
