Loved the trip and tour experience planned by Citizen Tours. Learned alot about Ghana's history and saw historic and present places of interest I knew nothing about. I enjoyed interacting with local citizens, visiting a school, the waterfalls, local villages, and traveling to different regions of the country. Our tour guides were outstanding in customer service, sharing their knowledge of the country, and making special efforts to make our visit memorable and special.
