Your Own Person in Ghana

A trusted local assistant for visitors arranging their own trip — not a tour group, not a package holiday. Just someone who knows the city, and is on your side while you are here.

Book a Travel Assistant

A travel assistant is more than a guide. They are a local person who spends the day with you — helping you find your way around Accra and other approved parts of Ghana, going with you to the places you want to see, sorting out the restaurant, the market stall, the taxi, the price and the language, and quietly explaining how things work here.

It is for people arranging their own visit. You do not need to be booked on one of our tours, and nothing here will ask you to join one. If you are traveling with us, you can add a travel assistant to the trip you already have.

Who it is for

  • First-time visitors to Ghana
  • Couples and families
  • Business travelers
  • Ministry leaders and church groups
  • People exploring relocation
  • Repeat visitors who want the day handled

What they help with

  • Getting around the city
  • Attractions and heritage sites
  • Restaurants, markets and shopping
  • Local communication
  • Coordinating transportation
  • Understanding local customs

How it works

  1. Tell us your dates and what you want from your visit.
  2. We check who is free and come back with a price.
  3. You pay, and we assign your assistant.
  4. You meet them on your first morning.
