Jay, Nana, Amanuel, Dallas,, Morris, Tony and the rest of the crew were amazing. Maximum Impact deserves a 5 stars rating. Keep up the great work! PS On a final note,, please have a variety of lunch meal options besides buffet. Overall, The trip has been my best experience so far and created Ghana a special place in my heart. Surely, I plan to visit with my family next.

Ghana 2025 🇬🇭 – A Trip We’ll Never Forget This journey was nothing short of amazing! With Bishop RC & First Lady Lisa Blake setting the tone and Jay and Maximum Impact Travel making everything seamless, Ghana 2025 was more than just a vacation — it was a powerful, joyful, and deeply meaningful experience. From the vibrant culture to the dancing, the food, the laughter, and the unforgettable connections — every moment was filled with purpose and passion. Queenology reminded us of the royalty within — that we are truly Queens. And the naming sermon gave us a deeper understanding of where our ancestors came from, grounding us in legacy and identity in the most beautiful way. We came as travelers… but left as family. 💛 Thank you Bishop RC, First Lady Lisa, Jay, and the entire Maximum team for curating a trip that fed our souls and left an imprint on our hearts. #Ghana2025 #MaximumImpactTravel #RCAndLisaBlake #JayTheAnchor #BlackExcellenceAbroad #LegacyAndLaughter #QueenologyInAfrica #TripOfALifetime

We had a great time. Wonderful people, delicious food and comfortable accommodation. Thank you for this fantastic experience!

I had a great time. The service was great from Maximum impact. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because when we paid for lunch and dinner everyday, it got quite expensive. The recommendation of bringing $500 dollars did not fully cover meals. The worry of running out of money made the trip a little stressful. Other than that, the activities were awesome, the people were helpful and just an all around great place to travel. I will be returning to Ghana.

The experience was one of a kind, being that this was my first time with a tour group, I enjoyed it very much. I learned a lot and my knowledge of the continent of Africa grew. I gained some wonderful friendships and enjoyed the tour guides; they were very helpful and courteous. I would most definitely recommend to everyone I know to visit Ghana and tour with Maximum Impact Travel. I am looking forward to many more travel adventures with this company. I was most definitely happy with the experience. It was great meeting with RC & Lisa Blakes who were very kind and down to earth, and Jay Cameron, the owner of Maximum Impact Travel was also very welcoming and amiable. I can't say enough about the tour guides: Morris, Irene, Ana Ama, George, Victoria and Dallas, also the drivers of the bus and all the helpers/assistants, whose names I did not get, they were exceptional. Thank you all for the wonderful experience and I will definitely be telling everyone I know to book with this company.

Thank you for your kind words. We don’t take them lightly and appreciate them. Looking forward to seeing you again in the future.

I had the absolute privilege of joining the Gateway Experience Ghana, July 2022. There's only one word to describe it - TRANSFORMATIVE. Jay has done the work and created a truly phenomenal travel experience. Because of his efforts, I connected with the ancestors, with Ghanaians, with Africans and with myself. I fell in love with Ghana and am now planning to move there. Jay and his local team - the incomparable Morris and the loyal Ernest - took care of every detail and provided a trip that was informative, enjoyable and safe. I don't think I could have that experience with any other tour operator. From now on, I will only travel with Jay and Maximum Impact when I visit any place in Africa. In fact, my group and I are planning to travel together again to Tanzania next year. It's just that deep. If you love Black people and Blackness, then love yourself by booking a trip with Maximum Impact!

Customer service exceptional! What a pleasure to work with Maximum Impact Travel for this trip. They are thorough and very attentive as there are several steps to traveling to Ghana; the entire Maximum Impact team made the booking process seamless with EASY-to-follow instructions. All questions I had were answered promptly and professionally. And, oh my goodness, once you get to Ghana, you will be warmly received by the Maximum Impact team and treated like a V.I.P. Accommodations are clean and super-comfortable and offer all amenities. Don’t hesitate booking the trip if you’re traveling solo as I was. It’s a trip of a lifetime where you will meet wonderful traveling companions, tour the country with knowledgeable guides and wish that the trip was longer. I LOVED IT! A powerful and stirring cultural tour that also includes fun-loving activities. Outstanding job by Maximum Impact. I’m already planning my next tour with you.
