Experience the rich history, vibrant culture and warm hospitality of Ghana. This journey connects you to your roots while creating lasting impact in local communities.
Eight days in Ghana, moving from Accra to Cape Coast and on to Kumasi.
We begin in Accra with a welcome dinner and a day to find our feet — the city, the markets, the Independence Arch, and time with the local partners who will host us through the week.
From there we travel to Cape Coast. The castles are difficult and necessary. We go slowly, with a guide who knows how to hold the weight of the place, and we leave time afterwards to sit with it rather than rushing on.
Kumasi brings the crafts and the kingdom: kente weaving at Bonwire, the Manhyia Palace, the largest market in West Africa. We finish back in Accra with a service, a meal and an evening to say what the week has been.
Group size is capped at forty so that everyone is known by name.
