The Best Tour Guide in Ghana - I had a wonderful experience with Ghana Must Go tours during my time in Ghana. Toufic is a wonderful guide. He is kind, parent, caring and funny, and made me feel at home during my short stay. I learned so much about Ghana during our time together and couldn’t recommend booking with Ghana Must Go tours enough.
I toured Accra, and also rode with Toufic to and from a beach resort during my stay in Ghana. Toufic not only helped me recover my lost passport but also prevented me from missing my international flight with his expert driving skills.
I can’t wait til my next trip to Ghana!

This is the best tour guide I have ever met - I’ve visited a fair few countries. Ghana was my 32nd. I’ve been on all types of tours. Walking tours. Cycling tours. Group tours and private tours. Toufic went above and beyond. I felt like I was on a ride with my brother. He is easy to talk to, knowledgable about his country and a gentleman. I recommend this company and tour to anyone coming to Ghana.
Now for the details about the tour. You see as much as you can of all the sites in a small amount of time. Just 4 hours. Entry fees inclusive. Tour guides inclusive. Takes away all the hassle. I was touring with my 20 month son. You can imagine that’s a recipe for disaster normally. But Toufic paid such attention to us both that we had a tour of a lifetime. Thank you Brother Toufic. God bless you

For an experience unlike any others - Toufic is a star! He takes pride in his country and heritage, and will do everything to ensure your visit to Accra is exactly what you need to fall in love with this city. Toufic has unlocked doors so we could have an impressive experience discovering many aspects of the city.
This very professional guide is well-spoken, owns his company and demonstrates a high level of knowledge of Ghana and its rich culture. All COVID-19 precautions were carefully observed, including frequent hand sanitation and mask-wearing.
We had an incredible day.

A great tour of Accra from an excellent tour guide - We spent an interesting and fun morning with Toufic, our local guide, enjoying the tour of Accra. Toufic is a lovely guy who we felt totally at ease with right from the off. He knows the city really well and drives carefully in what can be quite exciting traffic at times! Toufic's knowledge was outstanding as he took us to the attractions listed.
I especially loved the visit to Makola market which was fascinating, a buzz for all the senses. It was difficult to choose from the gorgeous and colourful fabrics for sale, but Toufic helped direct us to some great stalls. It was also great to visit the Centre for National Culture, this houses a diverse range of traditional Ghanaian art pieces, pictures and clothing; so many beautiful things to see.
I'm so glad the Du Bois Center was also on this tour although I didn't know much about the man prior to our visit; his home in Accra is fascinating and well worth seeing. All in all a very enjoyable tour made even better by our superb and friendly guide Toufic, thank you.

Accra City Tour - This was a fabulous trip around Accra. Not only was it really good seeing all the important bits of Accra in one day, but I felt really comfortable with Toufic, he is a really friendly guide, very knowledgeable and a good driver. I liked that the tour was flexible in that I could take my time at the bits I wanted to see the most and nothing was too much trouble for him. Worth every penny!
