Samuel and his team were AMAZING! Samuel was knowledgeable about the history of Ghana and surrounding areas, he was patient with our group of eight ladies (who loved to shop☺️), and most of all he treated us like family!!! Every place we toured, he provided us with added information so when we got to our specific places, all we had to do was connect the dots. I left with sooo much knowledge about the history and current lifestyles of Ghanaians. Thanks to Samuel, it was the greatest experience of my life. So, if you are looking for professionalism with a personal touch, Samuel and his team are the absolute best!!!Samuel is a great tour guide. His driver and photographer were great as well.

I visited Ghana for my very first time in June 2023. I arrived with a group of friends and was picked up from the airport by our magnificent tour guide Damuel Kofi. From the moment we met, I knew my experience on the continent was going to be amazing. Our week was packed full of educational activities, educational ventures, and our renaming ceremony in the village of Kumasi. This was an experience I could have only dreamed of. The natives were amazing, welcoming, and Kofi was amazing and educated us on most customs and rituals. The renaming ceremony has left a memory on my heart and soul that I will treasure forever. This is a must do when visiting Ghana and touring with Sam Kofi and Goldstar Premier. I definitely will return to Ghana and will only tour the Motherland with Samuel Kofi! He is my far the BEST TOUR GUIDE IN GHANA.Our tour guide, Solomon and driver, Kwame were absolutely amazing! The level of attention, care, professionalism, and knowledge is unmatched.

Our tour guide, Solomon and driver, Kwame were absolutely amazing! The level of attention, care, professionalism, and knowledge is unmatched. We arrived to Kumasi early in the morning, they picked us up from the airport, drove us to our AirBnB, stopped for breakfast, and then onto Bonwire. We didn't feel rushed and were able to take it all in. Due to my Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis I am heat-intolerant and cannot cool down my body. As soon as I mentioned that I was overheating, Kwame immediately escorted me to the van and turned on the AC, no questions asked. On to the experience: Bonwire - beautiful hands on (or feet-on) experience. Cocoa Farm - so informative and tasty. Naming Ceremony - emotional, informative, indescribable. This truly was the answer to our search for belonging as Afrikans in America. To experience this with our children (22 & 14) it was perfect and the professionalism of GoldStar Premier Touring Company was top notch. The owner, Mr. Samuel has trained the staff to uphold professional standards.
