What I love most about is that they don’t stop at the usual tourist attractions. They allow you to discover the real, authentic Ghana, and to look beyond all the destinations you typically see on Instagram. They choose their destinations and partners with great care, prioritizing local experiences, NGOs, and sustainability as much as possible in Ghana.

This September, you have the chance to join a truly special weekend, a weekend where you’ll go off the beaten path. You’ll learn all about life in rural Ghana, search through the jungle for palm wine tappers, witness the Ashantis' trading spirit in full glory, and understand how traditional beliefs and religion come together. You’ll get to practice your Twi lessons in real-life settings, learn to make the most delicious peanut soup ever, and so much more!
