Hi,

Ghana is very safe and clean, compared to our dearest Nigeria, it is very organised, however hotels can be very expensive too!!!, so make adequate arrangements for ur accomodation. have a safe trip, Are you going by air or by road?, if you are going by road ensure to use ABC transport as it will safe you thro the rigors of the borders.


Have a safe trip

My Friends just went to Ghana today and it was quite easy for them.
They traveled by air though, if you prefer traveling by road ( which is the best for sight seeing) then I suggest ABC like the previous poster said.

If you're traveling by air however, you need your international passport, then you will just have to book the next flight with any airline of your choice and your arrival and departure shall be stamped on your passport at each airport.

Just a cute little hotel to lodge, eat good Ghanaian food and get around the local market for some shopping.
Don't forget to take your camera phone so you can take some snaps! cool

The only way you can cross the Nigerian border is with your Nigerian passport or your Ecowas passport. Please carry one of the aforementioned with you.

Re: I Will Like To Visit Ghana Pls Advice by ayomifull(f): 9:05pm On Feb 22, 2008
I was in Ghana for a week holiday in 2002 and believe me i wish to go again and again and again, you will sure enjoy it, the country is very neat, good roads, security is good, their taxis are so neat and looks well kept, hotels affordable but thing were somehow expensive then i can't say what it is now. At the airport you can book hotel, there are very affordable hotels there and some of their foods are similar to ours so you can survive. Believe me, anyday i will advise an holiday in Ghana.

I stayed a few days in Accra and few days in Tema which is less expensive that Accra, cant remember the names of hotels i stayed now but ask mr know all-google.

Anoda ghana must go saga. See yawa o!

Anyways, I schooled in ghana and those gays that call themselves customs at the airport charged me import duty on every damned thing (from indomie to garri to my laptop and cellphones.) It's a nice country no doubt, but I have my reservations on alot of things. And they fucking took a large amount of money from me for not having a residents permit.

O and if you must travel to ghana and other ecowas countries, use your ecowas passport, they are not worth wasting the pages of your international passport on.

Illiteracy is a disease and I see it has made you terminally ill. Since you are still hungry put maggi cube in hot water and drink it. It will hold you till the next time you go to the bathroom. You know my type because you can read a person through internet connection. What a pity hinger and sheer stupidity has you in disillusion.

You sir are a worthless dumbass, keep entertaining yourself while rupturing your stomach walls.

PS its asshole idiot and bitch asshole just doesn't go well together, better luck next time.

I am not cussing with him, his problem is hunger and poor life decisions. I made a statement of what I encountered in Ghana last year and he flared up like a nasty nostril.

Getting back to the question, you will love Ghana. I have stay in Frankies in OSU oxford st in Accra, It also has resturant downstairs with a ice cream parlour and bakery. You can meet different people at night because everyone comes to hang out at the icecream parlour. Frankies is very clean, i believe it about $50 and up for the room. I also went to Cape Coast to see Elmina Castle that were the slaves were kept before they got transfer to various countries. That was something. Kumasi is also nice.

You will need your Nigerian passport to entry Ghana, but you dont need a Visa because it part of Ecowas, flying time is 55mins from lagos. Aero contractor as some good deals to fly and ver reliable. Bellview is ok,but they always seem to be delayed.

I have never travelled by road but i do hear ABC transport is good to travel with.

Just to say the Ghana custom officers are very friendly and when they ask you what you think are stupid / rude questions they have to do so that part of there job. if they dont t hey will get fired.Please dont take it personally.I have travel all over the place and various custom officer s have ask me questions such as

are you carrying bomb,weapons
why are you travelling alone
are you coming to this country to work illegally
who do you know in this country etc

We are all Africans,please let us unity

One love x

Frankies in Osu is gaddam expensive, about $100 a night now. The entire town hiked the prices of hotels since the nations cup. The place is cool though but their food aint worth crap. If you must spend money on a hotel, find good one especially on broad street.

Cape Coast is cool. loads of slave things but thats it. No night life, nothing.

Tema is the bomb.

The people are nice, but be careful cos they'll milk you dry with a smile on their face. And dont be decieved by the smiles, cos they dont really like Nigerians.

ESS,

I am sure the prices at Frankies were increased just for the African Nation cup.

It demands on the budget you have the Golden Tulip, Novatel, Labadi Beach Hotel which is about $200 are more expensive

Also Makola Market, is good place to go.
