Free walking tours in Accra

Emmanuel was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the Ga people and the history of the neighborhood. We really got to go through lots of interesting areas in the neighborhood and met many sweet people, and got to try some kenkey with fried fish and shito at the end. He knows a lot of history and is a great teacher!

Emmanuel is a great guide and has a lot of knowledge of his culture and history. It was very interesting to see James Town with a local. I recommend this tour to understand more about daily life in Accra and learn about Ga traditions.

Amazing walking tour around old Accra with lots of history and information! The guide is from that community so you get a lot of interesting information on the Ga people and the culture. Also a chance to see parts of the city you’d never otherwise see. Thank you!

Emmanuel shared a lot of knowledge with us. It was very interesting and he brought us to unexpected places. We learned so much about the Ga culture. Thanks again!

Great Tour and and Emmanuel is a great a guide! Very knowledgeable, respectful, friendly and shows you very interesting spots and shares his insights and present and historical Jamestown. Highly recommend!

This tour was excellent, Emmanuel was great and took me to areas of Accras that I never would have considered going to by myself. He also is very knowledgeable about local history and I learned a lot during this tour. Highly recommend for anyone interested in local history and day to day life in local areas of Accra.

This was the best free walking tour we did in Africa so far! Emmanuel took us to many great and historic places, adjusted the tour according to our needs, and was able to provide a lot of historic facts about each place. We loved it and can definitely recommend it!!

Had a great morning with Kweku and got a good feel of the city, its people, and the history.

It was a super nice time, Emmanuel was super knowledgeable about the everthing, Area, Hirstory and Culture. Showed me every litle corner and thought me all about the different Tribes and rules. Even took me back to my place, really open and fun Person. Highly recommended 😀

Our tour with Emmanuel was absolutely brilliant. We wouldn't have felt comfortable doing this walk on our own, and we absolutely would have got lost. Emmanuel led us through the busy streets seamlessly, imparting local historical knowledge whenever there was something of interest. It was great to speak to the locals and understand their daily lives. Emmanuel was fantastic and I'd recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the real Accra !

Emmanuel had a deep and personal knowledge of the community and it was such a pleasure to learn more about Jamestown from him. The information he shared with us was so interesting, and we felt very safe as he took us through the area. I really loved being able to interact with the community along the way. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking to get an up close and personal experience with this historically important and vibrant community.

Nice walk through the history of the old Accra with a very friendly and competent guide Emmanuel who told us a lot of stories and curiosities…and eventually brought us to try the best Kenkey! highly recommended

such a great tour! Emmanual was very knowledgeable of history, local culture and current affairs. He wa fun to be with and kept us all on pace but with a flexible manner. I would highly recommend him and his tour!

Ofrece una visita muy completa por la capital, vale la pena dejarse guiar y sumergirse en la ciudad. Una experiencia muy enriquecedora.

This was a fantastic! Kweku was very knowledgeable and was able to make accommodations for my party of 14 and it was greatly appreciated. If ever in Accra you must do a tour with Kweku

Excellent tour that provided significant insight into the history and culture of Ghana. In addition, you learn about the daily life of ordinary people who live in the Jamestown neighborhood.

I learned so much from Emmanual. About the history of Accra and Ghana, and about the Ga people and the clans. Very interesting. To see the places where slaves were sold was devastating, but a part of the history.

Excellent tour, very informative and eye opening, great guide!

I did not expect the tour to go right in the heart of the local Ghanaian community. We have walked through small streets and even saw a wedding (not part of the tour). The guide knows a lot about the community and tries to share the vibes through both teaching you some local customs and telling many stories. What I would do differently if I were to do this tour again? I would get enough water, wear a hat, wear a long sleeved white light shirt and avoid coming early. There is not a good place to wait for the tour to start. Good shoes are also a must but thankfully I had good shoes on :)

Amazing tour, full of insightful info. The best way of discovering Jamestown. Highly recommended.

He was punctual, nice and informative! Sometimes it is not easy to understand what he says, if you are not used to the accent (not his fault of course), but he is ready to repeat himself and answer every time you ask something! Very patient! The Makola market is in the list of things to be visited, but not in the description, so we asked about it when we met him and he took us there after the tour, because it was not really included.. So he was really nice! We definitely recommend this tour is you have a good knowledge of English! It gives you a lot of useful and interesting info!

Nicely getting to know the local people and the history of the district.

Danke für die tolle Tour. Ich konnte viel über die Ga lernen. Ich hätte alleine nie solchen Einblicke in die Viertel Dutch Accra und British Accra erhalten.😁

Emmanuel was a great guide around Jamestown. He taught us some local expressions and historical facts and took us around the communities. We also got to try a local drink and were able to see how local food was made. It was also nice and unique among other things to go down to the sea and see how fish was being smoked and to see also the new harbour that was built there. We can only recommend Emmanuel’s tour, but make sure to also bring water.

Emmanuel was excellent from start to finish. 10/10. Communication with him, once booked, was easy. Very approachable and knowledgeable throughout the tour. Highly recommend this tour, should you go to Accra, Ghana !
