A memorable visit to Kumasi - Bilson is a very friendly and caring person. I was picked from my hotel and throughout my tour of Kumasi, I had the experience of travelling in several types of local transports (eg: crotro, tuktuk, cabs and by walk) as we moved from location to location. I really did feel like a local and it was an enjoyable experience. Kumasi has a rich historical heritage and I had great fun learning about the Asante culture. Unfortunately, on the day I had the tour, the Mahahiya Palace Museum was closed , because they were reinstalling the Ghanaian artefacts returned by the British. But luckily, because the proprietor of the gift shop, knew Bilson, he allowed me to do some shopping, which was great for getting gifts for family. The tour ended with me eating a meal of foo foo. This was my first time and the food tasted good. I would really recommend this Tour because Bilson did his very best to make it enjoyable and comfortable for me from the moment I left the hotel till I returned.

A feast for the senses with good local food, interesting history, and a great guide. - Bilson was a great guide and very friendly. We definitely experienced Kumasi in a way we could not on our own. He took very good care of us and we had a great time.

See the real Kumasi with Bilson - We had a great time touring Kumasi with Bilson. We saw places we wouldn’t have been able to see on our own and really experienced a side to Kumasi that most tourists might miss. Bilson worked hard to ensure we had a great experience and I’d recommend anyone to take the tour like a local trip to see the real Kumasi.

Wonderful overview tour - We saw the important museums and sights and the market. In each museum we had a employee of the place explaining everything. Bilson was very flexible with the timing of the tour and super nice and accommodating.

Kumasi- Tour Like A Local - Bilson is a knowledgeable and professional tour guide. He was able to guide us through some of the more historically rich locations in Kumasi and took us to lunch at a restaurant which had the best Jolley Rice we've tasted in our two trips to Ghana 😋. I would highly recommend Bilson and his Tour Services to anyone making the trip to Ghana.

Highly recommend - fantastic guide - I spent the entire day with Isaac on my solo tour. We walked, taxied, and tuk-tuked around town. He took me to the major sites to ensure I got a feel for the city, but my favorite part of the day was eating where locals eat. I had a special request to eat fufu and Isaac knew exactly where to take me. Isaac was able to accommodate my arrival and departure time from the airport. He went out of his way to ensure I had a great experience. He is quite personable and someone I now consider a friend. I had such a great time that I hired Isaac for another tour in another region of Ghana. You will not be disappointed.

Good way to see Kumasi Highlights - 3.5 stars, good way to see Kumasi highlights. Bilson is friendly and pleasant. Would have liked to hear more from our guide about local experiences and inner workings of the market. But overall good way to have a slightly personalized tour of Kumasi's historic attractions.
