A Impactful Journey through Ghana - My family had the pleasure of having Vince for our entire 10 day trip, and let me just say he was excellent. Vince was very knowledgeable about the history and customs of Ghana. He provided concierge assistance as well, and guided our group through all the customs and courteous of each visited location. Vince made this trip an experience that will last a life time. Vince is down to earth and has a incredible personality which made the trip more personal. I would choose Vince and his company for every guided tour hands down.

Highly recommend! - Vince was so wonderful! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Ghana as well as its current state. He explained the importance and contributions of each village as we passed through them on the way to Cape Coast, and answered so many questions I had. He also made me feel very safe as a solo female traveler. The car was very comfortable and he really went above and beyond on the small details to ensure it was a great day. When I come back to Ghana I hope to be able to have Vince again as a tour to see other areas!

Very memorable day - super helpful, informative and friendly guide - This was a memorable day, made all the better by our new best friend Vince. He planned our day excellently, getting ahead of the crowds and quietly navigating all the logistics while we were able to just take in the sights and be with our thoughts. Vince is every bit as knowledgeable about Elmina and Cape Coast sites as the guides there, and answered so many further questions we had about Ghana history, current events and life in Accra and Ghana. All in all a wonderful experience.

My Ghana Vacation - I was invited to go to Ghana with my daughter and her family. Vince was our tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Ghana. It was 10 of us so we had, a bus, bus driver (Sammy) and 2 tour guides. Vince was the best. Vince met all our needs. If we asked, it was provided. We got more than a guide, we got a friend. I would recommend Vince, to help make your travel to Ghana a most memorable vacation.

There is no one better than Vince! - Vince is AMAZING!! He truly knows his history of Ghana and he makes sure to give you a brief synopsis of the tour prior to getting there so that you know what to expect. He is so kind and helpful and he makes sure that you are comfortable since it's so hot. Truly a 10/10 experience. I would definitely book with him again. You won't be disappointed!

Outstanding day trip to Cape Coast Castle, Elmina Castle and Kakum National Park - We thoroughly enjoyed our excursion with Schubert to Kakum National Lark for an exhilarating canopy walk followed by somber visits to the Cape Coast Castle and Elmina Castle. As a local guide, Schubert’s commentary and responses to our many questions helped educate us on life in Ghana and how history has impacted the area. In addition to the above stops, we enjoyed and excellent lunch with drumming for entertainment and roadside stops to try tiger nuts and coconut water straight from the coconut. We are traveling with Semester at Sea and arranged this trip based on a recommendation from a fellow passenger. I hope this review leads others to do the same. Schubert was very accommodating with our unexpected schedule change (lateness of arrival). Great day!

- I throughly enjoyed our tour of Cape Coast and Elmina. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and gracious. However, the journey was long, about 4 hours. The roads were bumpy and traffic was bad.

Family dream vacations - Last July my family and I were so lucky to have Vince as our guide for two days. I respect him because his is dedications and passion in doing something he love. My family had a great time going to cape coast castle the canopy walk while we were there it was raining my daughter was not wearing the right shoes for the weather and it was very wet and dangerously muddy Vince’s protective nature helped her down and cleaned her feet with a jar of water. As a father I will recommend Vince and give a five stars to his service.
