Cheryl Bard, a woman originally from the hustle and bustle of New York, now living in the quiet suburbs of Concord, North Carolina, had long dreamed of visiting Africa. Growing up, she’d heard countless stories about the continent—some of them positive, many of them based on myths and misconceptions. When the opportunity to travel with AfricaTravellers.com came along, Cheryl decided it was finally time to see Africa for herself.
“I chose Ghana,” she recalls, “because family members who had visited told me what a wonderful place it was. They said if I’m going to visit Africa, Ghana should be my first stop. I’m so glad I listened.”
The trip turned out to be everything Cheryl had hoped for—and more. From the moment she set foot in Ghana, she felt a sense of excitement and curiosity. But what truly struck her were the things she learned. Many of the myths she had grown up with were dispelled, replaced by a deeper understanding of the country’s rich history and vibrant culture. “It has been inspirational, powerful, and informative,” she explains. “The things I thought I knew about Africa were challenged, and I left with a completely different perspective.”
Cheryl also couldn’t stop raving about the care she received from AfricaTravellers.com. “They made sure we understood everything we were doing and everywhere we were going,” she says. “It wasn’t just about seeing the sights. They explained every step of the way. I knew exactly what I was looking at and why it mattered. It made the experience so much more meaningful.”
For Cheryl, the decision to trust AfricaTravellers.com was solidified by their flexible payment plan. “It wasn’t just convenient for me to pay over time,” she notes. “It also gave me peace of mind. When you find a company online, there’s always that worry—’Is this for real?’—but the payment plan reassured me that they were legitimate, and it helped me manage my finances without stress.”
Now back in North Carolina, Cheryl reflects on her decision to visit Ghana with nothing but gratitude and excitement. “It was the perfect first stop in Africa. I’d do it again in a heartbeat, and I’d definitely recommend AfricaTravellers.com. They care. It’s not just about getting you from point A to point B—they make sure you understand every part of the journey. It’s an experience I’ll never forget.”
Her trip to Ghana wasn’t just a vacation—it was a transformative experience. Cheryl left Africa not only with memories but with a renewed understanding of the world and her place in it
