    Welcome Home Tour in Ghana

    The tour was wonderful , great tour guide Elvis. He was experienced, knowledgeable, accommodating and very friendly. He really took care of us. The best part was the Naming ceremony and the castles. The hotels were great with plenty of food and the driver and his helper were very warm and helpful. Great bus ride and comfortable. I love the hospitality and the learning more about our history. However I would recommend a day in the middle for just rest and relaxing. I would like to party a little. But all and all it was a wonderful experience and I would go again and certainly will recommend your company. Happy New Year.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you had a meaningful and enjoyable experience with Elvis and the team. We appreciate your suggestion about adding a rest day—it’s great insight for future tours. We look forward to welcoming you again!

    Highly recommend Continent Tours for an unforgettable educational tour

    Introducing Ghana 7 Days June 15-21 was great. My pick up at the airport from my great tour guide Isaac A. to my drop off at the airport was great. Isaac is very polite and knowledgeable. My friends & family really enjoyed this visit. We want to return again and would definitely use Continent Tours again. I would recommend Continent Tours to everyone. Happy Tours bus driver Hans and Elvis were very polite. Hans is an excellent driver and I felt safe on the roads.

    A Solo Traveler's Dream

    First, I 1000% recommend Continental Tours for your traveling needs!!! I traveled alone and they provided a Safe and structured experience. Naa, my tour guide, was knowledgeable, kind, accommodating, organized, and open! Francis, my driver, was also knowledgeable, kind, and skilled!!! I NEVER felt alone and I could not have asked for better!!! They made my trip Special. The accommodations were Beautiful all the way around. I stayed at the Labadi, Lemon Resort, and Lancaster. Each hotel/resort had something special to offer. The excursions were the Highlight!!! With Naa's knowledge and Francis navigating, I could relax and really process the experiences! From the sites/neighborhoods and museums in Accra, to the castles in Cape Coast... phenomenal!!!! I'd recommend again and again. Don't do it yourself. Go with Continental Tours and ask for Naa and Francis!!

    OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE AND PLANNING

    What a wonderful way to "find your roots", this tour is perfect for a first visit to Ghana. This is definitely a cultural tour that immerses you into the culture and provides educational opportunities in a fun and interactive way. Our tour guide Joshua was attentive and a wealth of knowledge. He catered our tour to what we deserved to do. Our driver Frank was knowledgeable of the roads and regions, safely and timely getting us from one place to another. The entire tour was planned and executed so well there were no issues. We are forever thankful for this wonderful experience!

    Response from the operator: Dear Denise, We appreciate your honest feedback and we are glad that we were able to exceed your expectations. We always pride ourselves in making every experience of our customers worth repeating. Should your future plans include West Africa, we will be happy to assist. Have a good day. Best regards,

    Introducing Ghana, 6 Days: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Introducing Ghana, 6 Days cost?

    +

    Prices start at $5,000 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 Introducing Ghana, 6 Days take?

    +

    Plan for about 144 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 Introducing Ghana, 6 Days worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 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 Introducing Ghana, 6 Days?

    +

    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 Introducing Ghana, 6 Days suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Introducing Ghana, 6 Days?

    +

    Around 2 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 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Introducing Ghana, 6 Days 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 Introducing Ghana, 6 Days?

    +

    Included: Meeting and assistance upon arrival and departure; Breakfast; • Round-trip airport/hotel transfers; • Bottled water per person per day; and • Transportation in private vehicle. Not included: • Visas and Round-trip international Flights; • Travel insurance; • Gratuity for driver and guide; and • Meals not listed. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Introducing Ghana, 6 Days?

    +

    Upon arrival at Kotoka International Airport, proceed through immigration, claim luggage and clear Custom procedures, exit and meet our expert Cultural Tour guide Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Introducing Ghana, 6 Days offered in?

    +

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

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Introducing Ghana, 6 Days?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Introducing Ghana, 6 Days wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Introducing Ghana, 6 Days if the weather is bad?

    +
