Best of Ghana was a very interesting trip. Lots to see and do, it’s a “full on” experience. Our guide, Oscar, was knowledgeable and patient. The tour wasn’t a 5 star luxury / perfect tour, but I would absolutely recommend it.

Start to finish this was a fantastic trip. Our guide Clifford shared his deep knowledge of everything: animals and birds, trees and flowers, South African history and culture, hiking trail specifics and the smallest details about life in South Africa and Eswatini. Plus he was caring and kind and fun to be with. I really feel like I gained an understanding of the real South Africa because of Clifford and also the variety of experiences on this trip. We saw all the animals we had hoped to see, the hiking was challenging and extremely rewarding. The Drackensburg hikes were exceptional - scenery that is so beautiful that words and pictures cannot capture it. Even being there, on top of the "Amphitheatre", the grandeur, the immensity of the views, were impossible to truly fathom. Wow.

Good personal hygiene (like client hand washing facilities) was provided frequently on Kilimanjaro trek. Good food was provided for all diet choices. I would have liked an extra day between the Kilimanjaro trek and the 3 day safari.
Jane | Traveled in October
Holiday was brilliant. Tour guide was great, food was good and walks were interesting. A couple of improvements however. Trip notes need updating for last walk. It was not flat or easy! Lots of uphills and tiring sand dune walking. Loved it but not all of group enjoyed it. Transport from airport very poor. Had to wait 1.5 hrs when we arrived - in end had to ask a local to ring local number for us as we couldn’t get through. Transport picking us up for the airport was 35 mins late. Very stressful pickups 😕
