Big Ben Tours A Must! - We were with Ben (aka Kofi because he was born on a Friday) for two full days! We booked the Kumasi tour. We enjoyed the Kumasi Village and Naming ceremony so much we booked with Ben to visit the Assin Manson Slave River Site where the slaves were given their last bath before heading to the Castles. We then went straight to Elmina and Cape Coast Castles. For both tours Ben never missed a beat and was very accommodating as far as becoming our personal photographer and tending to anything else we needed! He is also very well versed on the history of Ghana and was able to answer any questions that we had. Will definitely use Ben the next time we return. Thanks Ben for making our stay in Ghana a memorable one!!!

Heartfelt Engaging Naming Ceremony - Ben was incredible! The ceremony was an experience unimaginable. We thought it would just be a tap on the head and dressed in garb. It was so much more! We actually engaged with elders from the town to perform traditions.
Another surprise and much appreciated was Ben’s videography and photography skills. Without us asking Ben took over and captured special moments throughout the entire tour.
Will definitely recommend him to any and everyone I know visiting Accra.
Side bar: definitely pack snacks. It’s definitely a road trip.

Amazing - Ben went above and beyond to ensure me and my sister's experience was amazing. We felt very safe with him and his crew. Elisha was also awesome. I highly recommend Big Ben Tours. If you want to experience Ghana on many levels, use Ben's tour guide services. Thank you so much Ben. Good Morning my NEIGHBORS....LOL

Don’t miss this experience. - Ben was a wonderful guide on time both days. The ride is a bit long so bring something to keep you occupied. The whole experience of making Adinkra, Kente, and the naming ceremony was something I’ll never forget. You will not be disappointed.
We also did the Accra day tour. Again worth it. The market was an experience in its own.

Very experienced and professional - I went on the Accra city tour with Ben in January 2020. Our pick up was prompt and Ben had all the knowledge that was expected of a tour guide. Our tour was of the WEB Du Bois center, Kwame Nkrumah national park, Mercola market, Jamestown and we were even able to visit a school in Jamestown which was amazing. Ben was very knowledgeable of all of Ghana’s history and was able to provide a lot of insight to the questions asked. All in all the tour was well worth the money spent and I would recommend Ben to anyone traveling to Ghana who would like to have a more personal approach to the country’s history.
