During a recent large sporting event hosted in Ghana, we as organizers made use of Landtours for all the transport requirements - including chauffeur-driven coaches, coasters, mini-vans, SUV's and sedan.... read more I've been in the MICE industry for 25-years and have worked with many a good operator/supplier worldwide - but I can honestly say that none come close to Landtours! The entire team is passionate, professional, genuinely hospitable, friendly, creative and think on their feet - all of which are crucial for successfully delivering an event of such magnitude. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to travel professionals, as well as individual travelers. Thank you Landtours - I salute you!

  General: Successful expedition, reaching the 3 highpoints of the countries

Car: Good car, we could have managed with a smaller one. Some of the roads could have been difficult... read more if we had rain, but we managed without 4WD

Hotels: Trouble at all places. They did not have 3 beds at any of the places, but it was fixed after some waiting tme. Swimming pool only available in Accra. In Abomey they only have one room with one bed and no aircondition. We refused to stay there, and after a while they had fixed another hotel. In Kara and Abomey we ended up with 2 of us in beds and one sleeping on a madrass on the floor.

Guide in Ghana: Average. It was a great experience for him to get to the highpoint of Ghana, so I think he is happy

Guide in Togo/Benin: Poor. He did not meet up at the Togo border, then he was in Lome. We met him at Agou. He did not know the route, and had trouble finding the way. No map, only a phone with GPS, that did not work at all locations. I also had a feeling that he was not able to read the GPS map on his phone properly. Luckily I had downloaded a map for most of the route to my Garmin GPS, and that helped us. In some areas I did not have a good map on my GPS. In these situations they had to stop and ask people along the road. The guide misleaded us several times, and I had to check and correct. His english was not the best, even if he was an english teacher.

Driver: Excellent. He really did the job for us on this trip. Very good driving on all type of roads at any time. Day 3 was very long. We started early and had a long drive on difficult roads up to the Ghana peak. Then some trouble with wrong navigation around Agou due to mistakes from the guide. Very long drive up to Kara, ending up in the dark just before Kara. There the guide leaded us to a road with oneway traffic coming against us over a bridge. We got stuck on the bridge and had to reverse with traffic coming towards us, and a lot of motorbikes coming from behind on this narrow bridge. I admire the driver for staying calm in such a situation, especially after 12 hours on the road with very small breaks. He also had to cover up for the mistakes done by the guide in Togo/Benin. Actually he was the guy that fixed everything in Togo/Benin, and we would have done better without the guide.

Value for money: I think the trip was very expensive, and we had expected more quality, especially regarding the hotels. When arriving at a hotel after a long day, hungry and tired, we no not want trouble with the rooms.

  My trip to Ghana was an unforgettable experience that I will be processing for months, perhaps years, to come, but undoubtedly two of the key players who contributed to its... read more excellence were our tour guide, Elvis Wallace-Bruce, and our driver, Steven. Elvis was the most accommodating, positive, congenial, comforting and knowledgeable guide we could have possibly had. I can't think of a thing that he didn't do to try to make our trip as wonderful as possible--and he succeeded! We had a magical time. We were well fed, saw many historical sites with extremely knowledgeable docents at each site, had wonderful shopping opportunities, some "chill time," and great accommodations. It's difficult for me to fit everything into words but, suffice it to say, if I'm fortunate enough to return to Ghana, I'll be booking with Landtours again.

  I booked a weekend retreat at Pestana Sao Tome and Pestana Equador with Land Tours, from Thu, 31st Aug to Sun, 3rd Sept, and I must say that, I was... read more very happy with the package that was offered and very pleased with the services rendered by the Land Tour team.
I was given options to choose from but each option had all the required information for me to decide on which package I want to choose.
They were very fast in their answers and happy to accommodate and answer to all my questions.
I finally choose the package that included one night stay at Pestana Sao Tome and 2 nights stay at Pestana Equador. I didn't regret it!
The package had full board at Pestana Equador plus, all the services included: airport transfers from Sao Tome airport to Pestana Sao Tome and back; breakfast at Pestana Sao Tome, use of all the facilities at Pestana Sao Tome on my last day, on Sun, 3rd Sept. The hotel is very nice and clean. I had a great evening at the restaurant, the food was very good. I didn't use the pool but is very nice and very clean. The beach is amazing and the view from the terrace of the restaurant is amazing too. Great place to be and recharge!
The trip from Pestana Sao Tome to Pestana Equador was also included in the package offered by Land Tours, which included transfer by bus and boat. The place is absolutely stunning with amazing villas and the restaurant has a very pleasant ambiance. The pool has salty water and the beach is stunning!
The staff is very helpful and accommodating. On my last evening, on Sat, the restaurant had a live local band which entertain all of us for about 1 hour and half. The show was amazing.
There is also scuba diving (which I did and enjoyed), snorkeling, boat trips. Is a small Island but is Paradise on Earth. The scenery is amazing and is a very good place to recharge.
Overall, I had an amazing weekend and I would like again to thank the team from Land Tours for making my trip so easy and without headaches of needing to organize something.
Thank You Mawuli and Jemima, the 2 STARS from Land Tours.
Well done!
Will definitely use your services again!
