Wonderful experience and great environment.
But tour guide was somewhat rude at some point. I and my sibs had to leave before tour was completed.
But all in all it was great!
Know your roots as an African. Nana Yaw the tour guide was very insightful. Thumbs up!
Just like the Cape coast castle, entry fees are very inexpensive and there are tour guides who ran sessions throughout the day. Remember to carry an extra bag of bravery as the stories are devastating.
I think I now have a fair idea what those people went through. In fact, I got scared at a point to the extent that I have to be forced to enter into the "room of no return".
One of the three castles built in west Africa and the biggest amongst them. Three castles are Christian bourg castle in Accra, cape coast castle and Elimina Castle.
