We bring the car and driver to your hotel, home or office — Osu, East Legon, Cantonments, Spintex, Airport City, Tema or out to Kasoa.
Professional drivers who know the Tetteh Quarshie interchange, Spintex traffic, the embassies and the quickest way to the coast.

Elmina, known locally as Edina, is a historic coastal town in the Central Region, about 12 km west of Cape Coast. Its best-known landmark is St George's Castle, built by the Portuguese in 1482 and widely described as the oldest European building in sub-Saharan Africa. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most important places to understand the Atlantic slave trade, so many visitors plan their morning around it. Fort St Jago stands on the hill opposite the castle, and the walk up is worth it for the view over the town.
Down by the water, the fishing harbour and lagoon are the heart of everyday Elmina, with a lagoon full of colourful wooden pirogues. The town is also known for its posuban, the painted asafo company shrines that reflect its long local traditions, and the Bakatue festival in July brings the whole community out. Cape Coast is about 20 minutes away, and Kakum National Park with its canopy walkway is close enough to fit into the same day. Our car and driver make that loop of castle, harbour, Cape Coast and Kakum simple.

The 1482 Portuguese fortress at the heart of Elmina, with guided tours through its courtyards and dungeons. Allow a few hours to do this UNESCO World Heritage site justice, and let your driver wait while you explore.
Wooden pirogues, nets and the daily bustle of the lagoon make the harbour the most alive part of town. An early walk along the water is a good way to see Elmina before the heat builds.
Elmina sits about 20 minutes from Cape Coast and within easy reach of Kakum National Park and its canopy walkway. We can run the whole coast loop in one day, so you do not have to plan the transport yourself.
