I registered for a historical sites tour with Kweku in Accra. As a part of the tour he provided a background on the colonial legacy of British rule both positive and negative and linked that to some of the observations throughout the day. He helped us navigate the impressive Makola Market and find the things that we had our hearts set on. We took a stroll through historic areas and visited Independence Square. Not only was Kweku knowledgeable and fun. We had a great time. A five star event!

Kweku was very nice and helpful, he knew many historical facts and was able to show us various landmarks. He gave us recommendations outside of the tour that will help us during our time in Ghana.

I had a great day with Kweku! We covered a lot of ground. He made a big city and complex history accessible. I would do it again!
