Phenomenal Experience - The traditional naming ceremony was a wonderful and unforgettable experience. The members of the village greets us with warm smiles as we danced and celebrated together as a family. It was heart-warming to see the excitement and joy in the eyes of all of the children when we arrived and during our visit. This was an amazing and life changing event.

Once in a lifetime experience! - I kind of knew what to expect but it far exceeded my expectations. From the moment we were picked up at the hotel to all of the learning and teaching moments shared along the ride. Witnessing the children so alive and the ceremony was more than I ever imagined it would be. After the ceremony the lunch and boat ride was lovely. I’m so that I was blessed to get this experience.

Once in a lifetime! - Only my teenage daughter and I participated but the foremost feeling for us was safety. We were picked up at our hotel by Freedom and Jeff who are very knowledgeable about the area so it felt like a tour on our way to the village. Once there, we were warmly greeted with dancing and drumming. Daniel, the village leader, explained the entire process to us before they began. Freedom also served as our interpreter when it was time for us to give a speech or say thanks. The added bonus is that it was on my birthday so everyone exuberantly sang happy birthday! I value the level of customer service provided by Foster, the owner.

A Unique Experience - This ceremony exceeded our expectations and was the highlight of our entire trip to Ghana. They went all out. First we got saged, cleansed then dressed in white garments in preparation for the ceremony. The ceremony consisted of dancing, sipping of wine, drummers along with special words from the chief. The villagers (including the king) came out to support and they were friendly and made us feel safe.

AH-MAZING ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - The ceremony was exuberant!!!!! Simply breathtaking. Left us all in awe. Definitely more than what we expected. There was a lot of work put into this. You not only get a name but also a family. Not only can we say Ghana gave us a home but also a family. The tours were great and very educational. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Keta Beach experience - The tour guide was very friendly as guiding. Picked us up on the pick up location and dropped us off at home. Explained a lot also about the places during the route to the beach. The beach was beautifull with nice food.
