Great Trip - It was a great trip with very good communication. There was no water in the Boti Waterfalls due to the dry season, but we knew that in advance because the guide informed us about it. We added a stop at tetteh quarshie cocoa farm which was a great addition to the trip.

Amazing experience - Superb. I felt that we discovered a hidden gem in Boti Waterfall. Our guide George was brilliant throughout. Will absolutely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing day away from the bustling city that is Accra!

Decent, but description was not accurate. - It was okay. We went with 4 adults (incl 1 senior) and 2 children. The positive aspects were, the van was nice and also air conditioned, so that was good. The guide was polite as well. The garden was nice, too, and the tour of it was not overly long. The rest of the trip was not worth it. It was advertised as 3-6 hours, but it ended up being 8 hours, and I would not have booked it had I known it was going to be that long. At least 5 of those hours were spent in the van, and other than the gardens, what we saw was not worth being in a van for that long. A lot of the path was super bumpy, bumpy enough and went on long enough that I started to get nauseous. It was not well-planned in terms of breaks, and I had to complain loudly that we needed a break after 4 1/2 hours of nothing to eat, drink, and no restroom break. We had been asking about a break, but our guide just kept telling us a few more minutes as they got lost and looked around for a substitute for the waterfalls. I wasn't even upset that we couldn't see the waterfall, that was a function of nature and it being too dry, but I was annoyed at spending what must have been an extra 90 minutes in the van to see a tree (even if it was a really cool one). Just, not worth it in my opinion. Also, they advertised snacks and wi-fi in the bus. No wi-fi in the bus, no snacks, but they did buy us drinks at the gas station after we stopped there for the bathroom (after my complaint). I feel it was not advertised accurately.
