Best West African tour Hands down! - "Continent Tours provided an unforgettable journey throughout Ghana, reconnecting me deeply with my roots as a Black diasporan. Our guide, Josh, was exceptional—knowledgeable and passionate about Ghana's history and culture. From vibrant markets to delicious local cuisine and enriching historical sites, Josh ensured we experienced the best of Ghana's vast cultural offerings. I can't wait to return and explore more with Continent Tours!"

My Pilgrimage to Ghana 2024 - Nias Travel coordinated people from various states into a tour group of 17. Nicole Gaskin-Laniyan did a fantastic job, along with Isaac, our phenomenal tour guide! Besides having my father's & brother's names, which warmed my heart, his high level of professional knowledge of his country made this vacay an actual pilgrimage to the Motherland. Hans, our adept bus driver, safely navigated us through the urban streets & country roads. Elvis provided a unique level of protection from the swarms of vendors as well as shopping safeguards. The information imparted to us was priceless, as was the countless new experiences. My new African name and Kente stole with the "Change Forever" Adinkra symbols are indeed true...

A Nice Welcome Home Experience! - I recently returned from Ghana and what an amazing welcome home experience given by Continent Tours! George was our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. I learned so much from George and Doris…about Ghana, our history, and the different cultures in different regions.. Asante was our very safe driver, I appreciate his focus in keeping us safe. I am returning to Ghana soon and I will be partnering with Continent Tours again as my tour operator. Thanks so much for a great experience!

Bena Nhyira - Returning Home - I’ve returned home from an unforgettable journey through Ghana. This trip has been an extraordinary adventure, deeply touching and profoundly inspiring. From the rich history of the Ashanti people in Kumasi to the vibrant streets of Accra, every moment was a treasure. This would not have been made possible without the expertise from the best guides on this side of creation, George and Doris. Continent Tours far exceeded my expectations and I am looking forward to my next venture with them.

5 star Ghana Experience - I just returned from an absolutely amazing experience to Ghana with Continent Tours. From the time they picked us up from the airport to dropping us back off at the airport, we felt safe and every detail was carefully planned and executed. George was our guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and just a great person. I cannot say enough about the extreme care taken when dealing with our group.

Fantastic 8 Day Tour - I was fortunate enough to be apart of an 8 day ABTP FAM trip to Ghana. Continent Tours was awesome from beginning to end. Our tour guide George was the absolute best and so was Doris. We learned so much about Accra, Kumasi, Cape Coast and the Ghanian people. Continent Tours was with us the entire time and we were safe and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Continent Tours to anyone looking to book a trip to Ghana.

Wonderful 8 day stay in Ghana - I would highly recommend booking this tour for your stay in Ghana. George Benson and Mr Richard were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, organized, and all around excellent tour guides and drivers. They made my stay in Ghana enjoyable, comfortable, and completely safe. They ensure that myself and my group had everything we needed and all of our concerns were met. During the stay we visited Accra, Kumasi, and Cape Coast. We saw many sights and historical locations. It was an amazing trip!
