Our Ghana Cultural, Wildlife & Coast itinerary gives you a perfect introduction to this wonderful country. Enjoy meeting the welcoming resident people, learn about significant cultural and historically significant sites, seek the fascinating wildlife of the Upper Guinea Forests and experience the Ghanaian coast. You'll be travelling around the country with your experienced, dedicated, private, professional, expert guide who'll enable for you to understand, rather than just seeing. Our guides have expert knowledge when it comes to culture, history and wildlife (including mammals, birds and butterflies) of all the locations you'll be exploring.
You can also rest assured that your visit will be responsibly operated and that it'll be contributing directly to admirable local initiatives. To date, our exemplary local agent has constructed two schools in different locations, offering creche, kindergarten and primary school education to more than 400 children who previously had no access to education. Your visit will also benefit habitat and wildlife conservation as our representatives have founded an eco-tourism project protecting tracts of Upper Guinea rainforest and its resident wildlife.
Please note that this recommended sample itinerary can easily be extended for those keen to stay longer in Ghana. We can, for example, recommend a three or four-night beach extension at the lovely Lou Moon Lodge on the West Coast, or, for those wanting to see some dry-country natural history, we can arrange an extension to Mole National Park in the far North. Do contact us for details.
