Trip to SEEGHANA

Welcome to Accra!

Once you have arrived at Kotoka International airport you will be met by one of our partnering drivers waiting to escort you to the hotel. Once unpacked and settle in we’ll leave you to get accustom to Accra. Depending on when you arrive, you will have a few hours to nap, swim, meet fellow travelers or even explore the city!

We will call all on the tour downstairs at 8pm (no Ghana timing) for our welcome dinner.

If you miss this dinner, due to late flights, we’ll save you some snacks

Being a Local

On this day we’ll show all the unique attractions that make this country one of a kind! You’ll visit cultural sites such as the National Museum of Ghana, St James Town, “Mini Brazil” and Makola Market to get a historical context to Ghanaian culture before ending the afternoon with a sweet treat! Did you know; Ghana is the largest importer of Cacao? As one of the largest producers of cocoa in the world, it’s a wonder there aren’t more chocolate companies in Ghana. All that is changing, with new brands springing up and we will invite you to experience a unique chocolate tasting session. We can either leave you in the city or drop you back at the hotel where we will regroup in the evening for an outdoor movie under the stars at Hannawi’s Beach Cinema Bar Grill and watch a movie with the locals on the beach

Rest and Rave

Today we will drive to the Aburi botanical gardens, one of the most fascinating places in Ghana which opened in March, 1890. Here we will spend the morning so feel free to bring a picnic basket! After the relaxing breeze at Aburi, we will head to the Asiafo Amanfro region where we will stop off at the Umbrella Rock and Boti Waterfalls where we can swim and relax for the day.

In the evening we will hit the town! Accra’s nightlife is not to be missed with people partying everyday of the week, we will guarantee that we give you the most memorable countdown you’ve ever had!

Exploring Elmina

We’re starting off this day on a high! No literally, the first adventurous activity today will be visiting the Kakum national park; one of the only canopies walkways in the world!

After which we will head to our next destination Elmina. Elmina is a fishing port area located further southwest of the country in the Cape Coast region. It’s known for its beaches and for its unforgettable role in the former transatlantic slave trade.

We will then continue new year off strong by remembering those who came before us before heading to Elmina Castle. You’ve probably seen pictures of the of this huge castle, but within the walls of the castle lies a very gruesome history which you will learn all about with our guided tour. Similarly, to this castle, we will then visit Cape Coast Castle.

After visiting the palace, we will visit the chief palace where we will pay homage to the chief and his elders. We will learn about the true traditions and culture of the people before the arrival of the Europeans including their naming ceremony rituals. We will end the day on with some dinner and drinks on Oasis beach.

Last Day

From Cape Coast, we will travel back to Accra. Today we will have a farewell meal, we will allow you time to say goodbye to other travellers and grab any last-minute souvenirs. Based on your departure time, we will drop you off in time so you can catch your flight in time.
