What people say about Kusum Experience

“Professional, organised, creative, informative”

The travel agency and Nii were professional, organized, creative in the programming and informative. I would no doubt hire them again when we return to West Africa.

“Always generous, calm, and solutions-oriented”

Nii was an incredible support throughout our time in Accra. He assisted with every aspect of the trip logistics, including transportation coordination, local guides, extra helpers, tours, restaurant bookings, studio and institutional visits, and introductions to local contacts. His knowledge of the city and his ability to navigate complex schedules made a huge difference for our group, and he was always generous, calm, and solutions-oriented. One of the things we appreciated most was his flexibility and willingness to adapt in real time to the needs of the group. Having additional local guides and assistants supporting us on the ground was also fantastic and added a lot to the experience.

“Special, once-in-a-lifetime experience”

I went on an Accra Art Tour with Nii in May of 2025 and it was wonderful. Nii was very professional, communicated well and created the perfect itinerary. He is very well-read in Ghanaian history and the local art scene. We visited places most people never knew about, it felt like a special once-in-a-lifetime experience. I will definitely be using his services again.

“Couldn’t see a trip to Ghana without Nii”

I’ve worked with Nii on a few different occasions and it’s always been an incredible experience. He is so knowledgeable of Ghana and its cultural scene, he has contacts in the art world but also in fashion and other creative fields and he is always making connections with people. Both him and his team have been great to work with and I couldn’t see a trip to Ghana possible without Nii organizing it!

“Incredible person, highly recommend”

Ghana offers an incredibly rich and diverse array of cultural experiences, ranging from bustling urban history in the capital of Accra to profound heritage journeys across the country’s historic kingdoms and coastal towns. For me Nii has been an incredible person and resource to experience the rich culture of Ghana. I highly recommend him for families, business persons, and even academics – who are very interested in getting a high quality experience while visiting Ghana.

“… Absolutely fabulous! Very attentive”

My trip was to West Africa(Ghana and Nigeria), Nii and his supporting staff were absolutely FABULOUS! They were very attentive and ensured all requests and needs were met. I experienced both an individual tour as well as a group tour with the Klotley Travel Agency, and both experiences were more than what I expected. I highly recommend the Klotley Travel Agency, and would without hesitation use the Agency again.
