FANTASTIC!!! H.I.M. Tours were very good hosts!

This was the most amazing trip of my life. I celebrated my 78th birthday in Ghana. Daniel Okoe Okpoti was an incredible guide, protector and negotiator for our sales transactions. Monica, his wife, sent us a questionnaire to ascertain what our interests were, and where we wanted to go. Some of us were there for seven days, some for 11 days and some for three weeks. H.I.M. tours managed to accommodate all of our desires.. we even took an unscheduled day trip to Kumasi, where they make kente cloth and Adinkra symbols. It was a wonderful wonderful day. Daniel got great prices for the exchange rate, which was 11.88 cidis to $1., on our first day. The second day we went to the seamstress to be measured and then to buy fabric. Daniel, made sure that our clothes would be ready by the time we left. We stayed at great hotels. The food at all of the restaurants was delicious. Daniel gave us a true picture of Ghanaian culture and history. He is passionate about sharing Ghanian history with us, which I greatly appreciated. We went to the compounds and visited with real people., not just the usual tourist attractions. My cousins celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary with a Ghanaian renewal ceremony. It was a wonderful experience. Daniel even planned for drummers and dancers as we entered and exited the compound for the wedding ceremony. This was an unexpected surprise to the bride and groom. The people were gracious and hospitable, and even provided lunch for us. We were welcomed warmly, and instructed that we were now family. I’d love to go back for my 80th birthday. H.I.M. Tours went above, and beyond anything we could have imagined. If you’re considering visiting Ghana, I highly recommend H.I.M. Tours. You will not regret it. Daniel’s and Monica, job well done. ❤️ ***Note:: ladies wear, skirts or dresses. Trust me! Phyllis Bell Atlanta, Georgia USA

As the leader of this trip, I am VERY pleased with the caliber of service provided by HIM Tours. While this was my 4th trip to Ghana (2000, 2006, 2019), I worked with HIM Tours diligently for months to ensure that it was a life-transforming experience for the 23 family members, friends and friends of friends who joined me in celebration of my BIG 7-0. Based on comments shared with me throughout the tour and in our What’s App chat even since it ended, the vast majority of the travelers LOVED the trip. Although there were a few missteps when moving 24 people around a large portion of Ghana, I still recommend HIM Tours with enthusiasm! The luxurious Kempinksi Hotel in Accra with its fabulous buffets and the elegant Oak Plaza Suites in Kumasi were outstanding accommodations. The rustic Coconut Grove Beach Resort was beautifully-situated on the shores of the majestic Atlantic Ocean, but we were disappointed with the poor quality of the rooms and HIM Tours will be in touch with the management to share our concerns. HIM Tours was extremely accommodating of our large group and worked overtime to ensure that our expressed needs were met. I am grateful that travelers had life-transforming experiences and made new friends for a lifetime!

My wife and I just returned from Ghana this past weekend. ABEN in Ghana afforded us a great opportunity to see Ghana the ten days we vistied with a group of 22. Our host and guides Monica Utsey and Daniel Okoe Okpoti were really hands on with the group and prepared to give us the best expirence a first timer could expect. The hotel accomodations were great and the food was fresh and tasty. The Botanical gardens in the Eastern region was such beautiful eye opening, informational, and an enlightening expierence. Our guide was so knowledgeable. He shared so much valuable information about every aspect of the natural resources that plants, trees, and flowers which produce so many healing properties. Our guide informed us that he was a graduate of the University of Ghana and that his studies was Bontany. It really showed. We also we visited the home and museum of Dr. W.E. B. Du Bois. We visited Kume Nkrumah museum, we went to Kumasi, we visited the place of our ancestors grave; we walked the path and marched to the river where our ancestors took their last bath before the trecherous and inhumane walk to be sold and transported. We stepped into the same river to bath as free people of the Diaspora. We were able to write our names on the wall of rememberance. We visited in Cape Coast to visit the salve dungeons. We visited Ntonso to deliver school supplies to the children and make our on stoles with Andrinka symbols. We visited the Kente Cloth factory and purchase various items. We visited NaKum National Park. We hiked and walked across seven bridges over the rain forest. Of course we were provided the opportunity to see the largest market in the world. We shopped and also had garments personally prepared by professional seamstress and talior. ABEN in Ghana is the way to see the country in a warm and personable way. Okoe and Monica made us to feel comfortable and confident throughout the tour and visit. Last but not least, we were part of a naming ceremony. My wife Mattie and I also renewed our wedding vows at the ceremony. My new name is Michael Anthony Johnson NII OKPOTI. Thank you ABEN in Ghana.

I recently had the privilege of embarking on a 10-day multi-city tour with HIM Tours Ghana, and I can confidently say that it was a truly life-changing experience. From the moment we set foot in this beautiful country, we were immersed in Ghana's rich culture, and the love and warmth of its people made this journey truly unforgettable. One of the highlights of the tour was the impeccable accommodation in 5-star hotels. It was a luxury to come back to such comfortable and inviting spaces after a day of exploration. The tour itself was carefully curated to provide a holistic view of Ghana, encompassing its past, present, and future. What set this tour apart from others was the flexibility offered to us as tourists to engage and interact with the locals. The tour guides were not just knowledgeable, but they also encouraged us to talk to the people we met along the way. This allowed us to gain insights into the local way of life and forge meaningful connections with the community. A heartwarming and delightful aspect of the trip was the opportunity to dance with the children and decorate Kente scarves at the afterschool program. This experience was both fun and heartwarming, and it gave us a chance to feel connected to the younger generation and their vibrant spirit. However, the most poignant and spiritual moment of the tour was the walk on the trail to the Last Bath. The significance of this historical site left a deep impact on all of us, and it was a moment of reflection and reverence that will remain with me forever. Beyond being an enjoyable trip, this tour was incredibly educational and transformational. I learned so much about Ghana's history, culture, and traditions, and it broadened my perspective in ways I never anticipated. The tour managed to strike a perfect balance between enriching experiences and having a great time. Moreover, the camaraderie among the tour participants was a special aspect of this journey. Getting to know my fellow travelers, especially my sisters, on a deeper level was a unique and cherished experience. I also made new friends during the trip, and I can honestly say that these are friendships that will last a lifetime. In fact, I have already recommended HIM Tours to friends and family, as I believe that this experience should be shared with as many people as possible. The level of care, attention to detail, and genuine passion that the team at HIM Tours invests in their work is evident in every aspect of the journey. In conclusion, HIM Tours Ghana provided an educational, transformational, and incredibly fun journey into the heart of Ghana's culture and its loving people. It was an experience that touched my heart and soul, leaving me with beautiful memories and a newfound appreciation for the world we live in. I cannot thank HIM Tours enough for this life-changing adventure.
