The trick with fufu is to swallow, not chew. Club and Star. Both are strong, flavorful and widely available. Getting around can be difficult. You can rent a car in Accra, and many rental agencies include drivers in the cost.
Taxis are widely available, but be ready to negotiate the price.
You can also get around by tro-tro, vans that serve as public transportation, but the ride is pretty bumpy. The greater Accra area has a range of hotels and guest houses. The luxury Labadi Beach Hotel is the pride and joy of the tourist board. The oceanfront resort is Accra's only five-star hotel. The Golden Tulip is another spot favored by the luxury crowd, while the Novotel, in the heart of downtown, is air-conditioned, pleasant, comfortable and cheaper.
