Local tips for Accra

Tipping, safety, the scams to sidestep and when to hit the busy spots.

Loading local tips
  • Use ride-hailing apps like Uber or Bolt for budget-friendly, hassle-free navigation across Accra.
  • Tipping around 5-10% at sit-down restaurants is customary and warmly appreciated for good service.
  • Visit popular outdoor monuments and parks in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat.
  • Politely decline persistent beach vendors or informal tour guides with a firm and friendly 'No, thank you.'
  • Keep small Ghana Cedi notes handy for small park entry fees, bottled water, and casual street snacks.
