Prince was great! As a... - Prince was great! As a solo traveler I was on the fence about getting a guide, and I’m SO thankful I did. It would be very difficult to navigate alone. Prince taught me about different things at the market and knew exactly where to go. I felt very safe with him.

Go on a Makola Market Tour - Ben was so good at explaining things at the market. He took us to areas we were unaware of and he was very patient making sure we saw what we wanted. The market can be very overwhelming and Ben made it doable.

Makola Market - Prince, was an AMAZING tour guide! I really enjoyed the tour. He was very knowledgeable and knew the layout of the market very well (it felt like we were navigating a huge human maze) and he helped me find and bargain for the things I wanted. I had a wonderful experience and will definitely book again. THANK YOU!

Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - This was definitely a highlight of my trip to Accra. I loved how throughly the tour guide, Prince, answered all of my questions and pointed out things that he thought would be of particular interest to me personally. He checked in both at the start of the tour and regularly throughout to make sure we were traveling at a speed and distance that was comfortable for me. If I’d visited Makola Market without a local, I’m sure I would’ve felt overwhelmed by the traffic and crowds and would have worried about getting lost. Instead, with Prince, it felt comfortable and easy to experience so much more than I’d have ever done without him. He was very warm, professional, and profoundly knowledgeable and the tour itself was a feast for the eyes, ears, and taste buds. I will never forget this experience and would recommend it to anyone.
