Anyone in Tamale?

You can get out to Larabanga mosque which is on the road to Mole Game Reserve so you can visit that too.

We live in a village a couple hours from Tamale. The best place to visit in Ghana in my opinion is MOLE Game park. It's rustic by some standards, but you can't beat the fact that you are that close to animals and the food/lodging really isn't bad at all. Remember it'll take you 3-6 hours to get there.
Be sure to visit a village. Hopefully you have a contact with somebody, the Northern people here are very hospitable and though it's rustic you might enjoy a night in a village and they can arrange a traditional dance/drumming for you. An unforgettable event.

In Tamale itself there's not much to see. The market as well as the arts n craft place is great place to pick up some stuff. For food, if you don't want street food good restaurants are SWAD fast food and Luxury Catering as well as Mariam and Gariba. let me know if you need directions or anything.

Great, thanks! If I can't track down your recommendations I'll be back on here asking for more info!

We've not got a car, do either of you have recommendations for where we can hire a car and driver to go to Mole?

@teamtamale   Well I don't know a good place to live but I know a guy to avoid.  Goes by the name of Issaka Hamza aka Zarious. Him n his wife play not married n he goes after women online. Especially older ones. He'll romance you and take your money. A teacher also

@zdihs it's a terrible town. Garbage everywhere. A few good restaurants that are. probably owned by foreigners. Chucks makes good pizzas

@teamtamale   Ugh. Not much.
