• 5A trip we all need to do and learn about

  This was a fascinating insight into the slave trade history and I enjoyed learning about it through the professional guides at the locations. It is a long way from Accra so there is plenty of driving but it is worth it. A special mention for my guide Samuel. What a great guy - he is upbeat, open, professional, engaging and really made my trip even better. If you book this tour, see if you can ask for him. You will have made the right choice.

• 5The Best Cape-Coast & Elmina Tour

  Price: Price was very affordable compared to other websites we searched! Driver: Our Driver was Samuel who was full of laughter and made the drive feel safe and comfortable! He also gave us pointers on how to navigate in Ghana when approaching merchants. Length: Initially picked up around 5:30AM and got back to Accra around 6PM. Ghana traffic is no joke. Overall each stop of the castle took approximately an hour-hour 30 minutes. Experience: I liked how each tour of the castles gave us our own private tour guide. Crowd Size: There were other tours happening but since it was only 2 of us & our tour guide it felt very close and personal to ask questions. Overall: Experience and atmosphere was 10/10! Be prepared to walk so wear comfy shoes/sneakers!

  I liked having the guided tour of the Elmina and Cape Coast castles. I appreciated that the guides were well versed on the history of the castles. They provided information on the architecture, religious and cultural implications, experiences of the enslaved Africans, and plans for the future of the structure. Be prepared to be aggressively approached by local merchants selling their goods upon entry to the castle. They are not trying to hurt you in any way but if you are not used to being approached by many people quickly or are not a fan of crowds, this can be intimidating. THEY DO NOT MEAN ANY HARM!! They are simply earning a living. They are not permitted inside the museum. Lastly, there are gift shops inside the museum for you to purchase books, art, etc.

  I am giving this a 5 because of Moses the driver. This trip deserves a 1 because of the deception around the time it takes to/from travel between the attraction and Accra. It took us 7 hours to get there and 6 hours to return home. The traffic and poor road conditions have been a fact of life since 2023 when the construction started. There are hotels in the area of the attractions if you would rather not spend 13 hours in a car in one day.

About Accra

Accra, Ghana's capital on the Gulf of Guinea, mixes colonial forts, independence monuments, busy markets, beach bars and a famed music scene.

Accra lines the Atlantic coast, and its older districts keep the character of a trading port. In Jamestown, an old fishing quarter, a lighthouse stands beside Dutch and British forts, and boxing gyms spill onto the lanes. Black Star Square, with its Independence Arch, and the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park honour Ghana's first president and independence in 1957, while the W. E. B. Du Bois Centre remembers the writer who spent his final years here.

Top-ranked sights in Accra: Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and Memorial Park, W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Pan-African Culture, Makola Market.
