“First-Class Travel Support”

We appreciate your hard work and diligence in planning our first African adventure. You were thorough in advising us of all the steps needed to get us to Ghana. You were under time constraints, considering we wanted to travel within 30 days of contacting you, but you rose to the occasion. Also, it was quite a surprise for you to greet us at the airport with gift bags.

“Perfectly Planned Honeymoon”

From day one of planning Ms Dankyi (Travel Advisor) was very responsive to our requests and vision for our honeymoon. The accommodations and vendors selected for our itinerary were great. We could not be happier about the level of service and the results of Lab USA Travel planning our trip.

“Seamless African Adventure”

I embarked on my first trip to Africa (Ghana and Kenya) with LABUSA Travel and they were very helpful and professional. They kept me informed on every aspect of the process and things could not have gone smoother. My experience in Africa was an opportunity to explore, learn, connect and a chance for cultural exchange with diverse traditions.
