We had a great time touring Kumasi with Bilson. We saw places we wouldn’t have been able to see on our own and really experienced a side to Kumasi that most tourists might miss. Bilson worked hard to ensure we had a great experience and I’d recommend anyone to take the tour like a local trip to see the real Kumasi.We saw the important museums and sights and the market. In each museum we had a employee of the place explaining everything. Bilson was very flexible with the timing of the tour and super nice and accommodating.

I spent the entire day with Isaac on my solo tour. We walked, taxied, and tuk-tuked around town. He took me to the major sites to ensure I got a feel for the city, but my favorite part of the day was eating where locals eat. I had a special request to eat fufu and Isaac knew exactly where to take me. Isaac was able to accommodate my arrival and departure time from the airport. He went out of his way to ensure I had a great experience. He is quite personable and someone I now consider a friend. I had such a great time that I hired Isaac for another tour in another region of Ghana. You will not be disappointed.Bike on was great. Friendly, informative, and attentive. I felt safe and felt like I truly learned about Kumasi from a local. He made sure I was good and could keep up. He was also very generous and attentive. I’d recommend him and do this tour again. Be prepared to walk but it was all worth it!

Our tour guide was amazing. He made is feel and experience the city in a simple but beautiful way. We visited the Kejetia market where he assisted us with bargaining. He made sure the locals did not try to over charge us. He was so considerate of the fact that my mom could not walk as fast as we did so he made sure to take his time to accommodate her. I would 100% recommend anyone visiting Kumasi or Ghana as a whole to book a tour with him.
