I so enjoyed the full day with Stellar tours. He knew so much about Ghana history. We went to the bead market, checked out the three palm trees, walked 250 steps down to see the twim boti waterfalls (which we had to walk back up...????I have to get back in the gym????) sat under the umbrella stone for a spell while sipping on some refreshing palm wine (I could have taken a nap). Great experience and I would definitely recommend Stellar tours????

If you are looking to reconnect with your roots or are just curious about the history and Culture you MUST experience this tour. Thank You Kweku for all.

I traveled to Ghana during July & August on a 14 day trip with the Global Africans group for Ghana's "Year of Return" and Emancipation Day activities. Hausa Tours and Fuseini coordinated our on the ground experience. The trip was well planned and we'll coordinated. The Hausa staff were friendly & resourceful. They were hand on and put forth tremendous efforts to make sure that our group had a meaningful travel experience. I was a first time visitor to the country and the trip provided a good learning experience. I believe that the tour gave me a very good overview of the lives of the people and their culture over the brief time we were in the Country. I highly recommend Hausa Tours and the wonderful staff.
