Great local guide - Vince is an enthusiastic, knowledgeable guide. He was able to adapt the tour to the client's wishes and with very little notice. He is friendly, kind and keen to please. I only did the one day city tour but would have been very happy to undertake a longer tour with him.
Vince is a local making the best for himself.
I would wholeheartedly recommend him, you will have a good day/tour with him.

Best Tour Guide in Acura! - Vince was amazing! From the beginning everything was perfect. He picked us up at the restaurant we had breakfast at in an air conditioned car and had waters available for us when we needed them. He showed us around Acura and he’s was extremely knowledgeable on the history of not just Acura but Ghana in general. He was extremely accommodating as well, we had already been to places that his tour offered he easily adjusted for us so that we didn’t have to visit the same place again. Most importantly he made us all feel very safe with him around the city. He also helped us navigated buying the different Art and helped to ensure that we didn’t over pay. I HIGHLY recommend him for all of your tour needs in Ghana!

It was everything and more! - This is run by moodtohope tours which is a small business run by Vince, our guide. He is SOOOO great I cannot recommend him enough. He was honestly the best guide we had yet. He is very knowledgeable. We booked this last minute (same day booking) and he accommodated everything we needed and he picked us up from the restaurant where we had breakfast. The Van he arranged had AC and was very comfortable throughout the tour. He tailored the tour for everything we wanted to see and more. (We had already done some things solo which I do not recommend lol tour guide for everything in Accra is best!). We went to the arts center, WEB Du Bois Museum, Independence Square, the National Museum of Ghana, and he explained the history all the way. Please please please book this tour. Support local, small business like this tour operator and I promise you will not be disappointed. He has so much passion for his work and it shows in the quality of tour you will get.

We visited museums, freedom square and an art market. This market had a lot to offer and less pressure. - Vincent was great. We were a family of 5 adults of varying ages and abilities. He was flexible, knowledgeable and always concerned that we were having a wonderful experience.
