Nice tour - I enjoyed the tour of the markets. I got most of the things I came for. Ebo helped me find what I was looking for and communicated with the vendors on our behalf. His car was clean and comfortable with A/C. He took us to a popular eating spot ( Living Room) with no wait time that had great food and service. I would highly recommend him.

Got what we came for! - My sister and I with our daughters attended this tour. We wanted to get shea butter, black soap and women's african style clothing. Ebo knows all parts of the markets and Makola truly is huge! We found what we needed at local prices and was very happy with that, Ebo knows the market ladies and they were really nice to us. Getting the clothes was a bit overwhelming because everything moves so fast there but we did manage to get some nice fits which came in way under budget. Ebo helped us bargain and kept us all safe. As with everywhere, there are people that prey on tourists and pickpockets etc. You'll be in safe hands with Ebo that's for sure! We didn't book via viator because Ebo was referred to us.

Great Market Tour of Accra - The Makola Market was an amazing experience. Ebo guided us through the market with ease and helped us negotiate prices for fabrics, soaps, and clothing. An experience we'll not soon forget.

Market Tour in Accra - Ebo collected us from our hotel. He let us know that he was downstairs an hour early nd to take our time. The markets were vibrant, busy and hot! We loved it, we wanted to buy Shea Butter and some wax cloth so Ebo took us to the parts of the market to facilitate that. We had lunch at The Living Room and really felt that we had an authentic experience on this market tour. Wear comfy walking shoes.

Business as Usual - This was an exciting opportunity to experience Ghanaian market day. I was amazed at the number of people in the market as well as the number of merchants with all the goods sold from spices to clothing. This was overwhelming for me because I like to browse when I am shopping. These people mean business.
