EXCELLENT Based on 147 reviews Posted on Latrell H25. October, 2025Verified "Ghana Tour" Ghana: A Cultural Journey from Accra, Kumasi and Cape Coast was, by far, the most emotional and exhilarating experience we've had in all the years we have traveled. The Ashanti African Tours Company, led by Senior Tour Guide, Foster Frimpong, began as we were warmly welcomed "home" by him. Foster immersed us in his rich culture and heritage, OUR heritage, through comprehensive storytelling of historical truths and ancestral lived experiences. Foster's extensive knowledge and delivery throughout the tour were immeasurable. I highly recommend this tour to every single member of the African diaspora. I promise you will leave more grounded and connected to our roots. Jackson Sistahs: Latrell, Diane, Tracey, Janet. Pam & JanellPosted on angela d1. October, 2025Verified Informative, culturally relevant and appropriately adventurous! This was a very educational experience. The tour guides were well informed and extremely attentive. We were well taken care of.Posted on Renato G25. September, 2025Verified Professional led us through Benin, Togo and Ghana Ashanti were excellent in leading this tour. We had a private photography tour and it was superb. We visited three countries, Benin, Togo and Ghana.Posted on Maria B12. September, 2025Verified A fantastic holiday We're back home after our fantastic trip to Benin and Togo, which exceeded our expectations. We had planned the trip over a few months with a great amount of assistance from the Ashanti team. The information pack that was prepared for us was very informative and well balanced between culture and nature. The actual holiday though was so much more - so full of new and diverse experiences that we enjoyed and learned so much from. The places we visited, the different people we met were enriching.Our guides and driver (Valentin, Ben and Ben) were very professional, friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable.We would definitely recommend Ashanti to our family and friends.Posted on Isabel T4. September, 2025Verified Glimpses and tastes of Ghana- Accra and beyond. At short notice I was in Ghana for meetings and I had 2 extra days to explore. As an older female I didn't have time or confidence to travel alone. From my first email Ashanti Tours were quick to respond, came up with great suggestions and were very flexible. My driver Stephen and guide Matteus were excellent. I learnt so much from our conversations. The vehicle was comfortable, I always felt safe and they adapted the plans to my energy level. Bead making, Cocoa farm and experiences in nature parks and a sunset cruise were all great, plus seeing important historical and political Iandmarks in Accra. Thanks so much and if I'm ever back in West Africa I'll be using Ashanti tours again.Posted on Ina B10. August, 2025Verified An amazing experience! I booked a 10 day cultural tour through Ghana, Togo and Benin. From the first email through to my airport drop off, Ashanti Africa Tours was amazing. Everything was well organized to help with paperwork and getting visas. The trip itself was beyond my expectations. The arrangements and efforts of my guide and driver went above and beyond; they kept me safe, ensured that I was able to try all of the foods I wanted, shared their personal stories and cultures, and they answered my endless questions. I will definitely be booking future trips with Ashanti African Tours!Posted on Airlie W1. August, 2025Verified What a great time in Ghana viewing a full range of their wonderful wildlife Had a fantastic trip with Paul Mensah guiding us and Alex our driver. Everything was so well organised and Paul and Alex were excellent. Cant recommend Ashanti highly enough for our wonderful wildlife trip to Ghana.Posted on sconrad11117. July, 2025Verified Highly Recommended! I cannot say enough good things about Ashanti African Tours. We had a fantastic trip, thanks to the attentive staff at Ashanti. Ernestina helped us arrange and prepare for all aspects of the trip with her prompt and informative communication. Oscar was an extraordinary guide, patient and kind and with an endless amount of knowledge about Ghana. And Ben was an ace driver, getting us everywhere safely and calmly, regardless of the conditions! The activities on the itinerary included a great variety, and the team was flexible when we wanted to make a few changes to suit our family. This trip far exceeded expectations and allowed our family to get a sense of the beauty and rich culture of Ghana. 5/5 stars.Posted on Richard B14. July, 2025Verified Custom Togo and Sao Tome Tour with Ashanti It was very easy communicating with the Ashanti administrative team who were extremely helpful in crafting a perfect custom itinerary for me to Togo and Sao Tome based on my specific cultural, nature and birding interests. Both my Togo guide (Valentine) and Sao Tome guide (Laudino) were great and exceeded my expectations. In Togo, Valentine made sure all of my touring including the local guide I used in Togoville and transfers went smooth; he also did a great job selecting a Zangbeto dance for me to watch, which was a lot of fun. My Sao Tome guide Laudino was among the best I have ever had for birding and I have done birding in a lot of places, e.g. in Guyana, Colombia, Borneo, India etc. Laudino and the local spotters helped me to see almost all the endemics despite only having two full days in Sao Tome for birding, which really impressed me. Moreover, it was enjoyable to be around them, as the terrain was difficult but it was still a good hiking experience in their company. Laudino also went above and beyond in helping me spot difficult species in Monte Carmo (e.g. Grosbeak and Fiscal) and around Macambrara / Bom Sucesso and Obo, he helped me to find the Scops Owl in quite challenging conditions, which is normally a nocturnal species. All of my Togo and Sao Tome drivers were polite, professional, very reliable and good at navigating traffic as well as off-roading in more difficult terrain.Posted on Jean J10. July, 2025Verified It was a personal tour and everything I desired to see, taste and do was taken care for me. This was actually my second trip to Ghana with Ashanti African Tours as host. All I can say is EXCELLENT. Kojo and Kwame took great care of me.
