Review rated by 16 Ciao members on average: somewhat helpful

For personal reasons my family decided to go to live in Ghana for afew months when i was seven, my sister five, and my little brothers both one. This may seem like a task in itself, but the experiences our stay there left us with are unforgettable. The people are so hospitable, their way of life so humbling, their attitude to life so refreshing. Of course, there are difficulties. It's baking hot for one thing; lovely in the day, but uncomfortable at night if the room is western-built and there is no air conditioning. There is rarely a time when the air conditioning and running water works at the same time, mosquitoes are a bother and it is necessary to use mosquito nets. However, despite all this the experiencewas incredible. Kakum rope bridges, Elmina castle, Cape coast, Ambosko Dam and the incredible beaches, pools and safaris are all must sees. For our family it was the holiday of a lifetime

Perhaps a little more info on the climate; the people; what there is (or isn't), and so on Re-review, and let me know just so that I can come back and re-rate it for you. Dan x.

A good review, a bit more info would get better ratings though, maybe have a flick through some other's reviews and see the info they included and their layout and take some hints and tips from that! If you do edit it, drop me a line in my Guestbook and i'll happily re-rate. Laur x
