Please I need to know what obtains travelling to ghana now, this was posted in 2015. Please anyone? I want to know what the total budget is like, hotels, services etc. Please help a sister |

damsie: Ok, I don't think traveling to Ghana is hard despite posting this in 2015. Although I heard sometimes ago that Nigeria will need a visa to enter into Ghana, but I don't think it's possible because both Nigeria and Ghana are west African countries, and by virtue of been under a governing body of ECOWAS, all west African countries are VISA FREE for Nigerians. Well, I will advice you get an international passport first to make it easier. Secondly if u are traveling by Air go to MM1, there is a particular Ghanaian airline that fly to Accra daily, from there you can make enquiries of what u needed to fly. If u are going by road check ABC transport at festac area or Efex transport at yaba or iyana Ipaja and make enquiries. Lastly u will need a vaccination card also known as yellow card. With all this above I believe u are good to go. Good luck. 2 Likes |

olystic: cos when u boarded Efex, the bus didn't leave Lagos earlier than u anticipated, the driver having to stop frequently during the trip and delays at the borders doesn't mean their service is poor. if u have been a regular traveler on the west African route u will understand that trips do come with different challenges day by day. I have traveled Lagos to Accra over the years for an average of 16 times yearly since 2006 till date and I patronised transport coys until 2015 before I started driving myself to and from GH. so far, I can recommend Efex, young shall grow, Solomons chariots, and Guo motors ahead of ABC, cross country, chisco, and the rest. 2 Likes 1 Share |

olystic:it depends on the part of Accra u wanna lodge. I know of bed space with shared bath & toilet in Accra that goes for Ghc7 per nite. there are hotels rooms with ac for Ghc 35, 45, 50, 60 per day in asylum down, kanda, mamprobi, kaneshie north, odorkor, mallam junction, weija, nugua, tieshie. just do your search well. if you ask a taxi driver to take u to a moderate hotel in Accra, for the fact that you are a Nigerian he believes u are loaded and mind u, for every guest an Accra taxi driver introduce to any hotel, he gets a % of the room rate so he will definitely take you to one that's pay higher %. as I type right now, am in busua beach resort, busua in western region 3 hours away from elubo border. I just got in from Abidjan last note. 4 Likes |

Re: My Experience Traveling To Ghana By Road. by Otunba4eva: 6:01pm On Dec 10, 2017 |
NaturalNerd: Cos of the immigration and stop over, let say between 10- 12 hours by ABC luxurious buses but let say about 9 hours for smaller buses. |

I am thinking of buying goods from Lagos to supply in Ghana hence 1Cedi is about N80, Though I have not been to Ghana but my mind tells me I can make reasonable gain going by the fact that Cedi is greater than Naira in exchange rate. Honesty I need advice from anyone that goes to Ghana or living in Ghana. Please I need your advice. Thanks. |

Re: My Experience Traveling To Ghana By Road. by Otunba4eva: 12:01pm On Mar 02, 2018 |
Gracely7th: No u can't. U need an international passport because of the immigration at the airport |
Re: My Experience Traveling To Ghana By Road. by Otunba4eva: 12:06pm On Mar 02, 2018 |
Yampotatocarrot: Hmm, as for me who is a low key person , u can budget between 80-100k because to and fro with passport by road should be around 30k or thereabout. Use the remaining for hotels and feeding. U can see moderate hotels for 7k any way. |
Re: My Experience Traveling To Ghana By Road. by Otunba4eva: 12:10pm On Mar 02, 2018 |
Pascallino90:Yes u will need it , otherwise u will pay extra at the POE. So go get urs at ikeja pls to avoid story that touches |
