This was a great tour of Kumasi and Maclean did a good job.

This was a great tour of Kumasi and Maclean did a good job. We toured on a Sunday which resulted in some museums having delayed opening times (Ghana time) but the order of visits was adjusted to accommodate these changes. Overall, the Prempeh museum was informative and the Okomfo Anokye sword site was interesting. The Manhyia museum was worthwhile and the Kejetia market was amazing. The tour may benefit from a scheduled lunch at a great local restaurant.
