PDF Travel Guide to Ghana for sale


What is it?
It is a 278-page, instantly downloadable PDF guide to travel in Ghana.

This is a travel guide that lets visitors benefit from our inside knowledge and experience. A guide that is:

  • Up-to-date on prices, names and numbers (Updated versions and separate pages showing specific changes will be emailed to you free for 12 months from the date of your purchase.)

  • Written by a Ghanaian and a foreigner who lives and travels extensively in Ghana (we got lost so you don’t need to—but it’s often a fun learning experience if you do)

  • Explains clearly how to get from A-to-B (or C and D and E if you like)

  • Includes the best attractions and accommodation (so you can save time and money)

  • That also explains what Ghana and Ghanaians are really like (so you’re not completely in the dark when you find yourself without a toilet, for instance)

  • With extended culture, costs, health, preparation and dangers sections (to put you in the most prepared and confident position before you leave)

  • And includes our “insider’s” tips throughout every section (so you can visit “hot” spots in your first week, instead of taking months to accidentally discover them)

  • With an audio file of basic greetings and words in Twi and Hausa (by Godwin!) so you can learn to say “hello,” “I’m fine,” “How much is it?” and other useful every day phrases in the two major language groups in Ghana. You can even listen to it on your I-pod before touching down to prepare for your first encounter with a taxi driver! Don’t worry—it’s not difficult and Ghanaians really admire your attempts to speak their languages, even if you’re trying to reduce a price.

  • Godwin (our Ghana half of the team) and I (Aussie half) will also add some words of advice about how to haggle with a couple of examples (we are going to role play this one in English) so you can hear what to expect when you buy souvenirs or any products in the markets. He’ll be the trader, me the buyer. (*Note: These two audio files are “in production” now. You, and existing wonderful customers, will receive this as a separate update via email shortly if we haven’t already zipped it with the guide when you buy it.)


Who it’s for: The Insider’s Guide to Ghana is most suited to
  • First-time visitors

  • Second- or third-time visitors who may have spent limited time in Ghana previously

  • Visitors whose last trip to Ghana was more than two years ago

  • Anyone who lives principally in one area, e.g. Accra or Cape Coast or Kumasi, and who will travel to other parts of Ghana but may be unfamiliar with those areas.


The guide is not suited to
  • Anyone with extensive travel experience in Ghana

  • Anyone who has a guide that they’re already content with using


Reality check:
The guide won’t solve all your Ghana problems, but it will make life and travel a whole lot easier, especially regarding transport, health, accommodation, culture, and how to get from A to B.
