A Blackpacking organisation growing a conscious community of Black travelers through culturally thoughtful programs designed to immerse Blackpackers into the communities, organizations and people we work with. Abibikwantuo is a travel organization that provides a safe space within travel for the interrogation of our Black=Afrikan identities for Blackpackers in intimate groups through carefully des

igned and culturally thoughtful travel programs and itineraries.

‘Abibikwantuo’ (ay-bi-bi-quan-to-o) is a concept derived from the merging of two words in Akan, ‘Abibi’ meaning ‘of Black people’ and ‘Kwantuo’ translating to ‘Journey or Travel’ which put together describes a Black People Journey or Travel. Our vision is to grow a socially conscious and united Blackpacking community while increasing travel desirability in Black Afrika. We acknowledge intersectionality but we choose to come together based on the one thing we have in common, Blackness=Afrikaness. Our programs are designed for Black=Afrikan peoples intent on (re)writing and (re)righting our narratives through travel.

The northern part of Ghana is a very special place for us because it affords us the opportunity for deeper immersion through homestays. We are welcomed with open arms as we live with the community and be a part of the community. We do this to inspire new ways of thinking, connections brought forth from relationships.

Come on our trips, to experience this rarely told story which abounds in the north.

At abibikwantuo, we allow for a symphony of wanderlust and wonder letting the road be our eternal teacher. Every program becomes a whispered verse in the profound narrative of learning, where the paths etch lessons that linger in the heart.

We do not merely traverse the miles; we immerse ourselves in the stories of diverse landscapes and cultures, allowing the very path we tread to impart wisdom and leave an indelible mark upon the participants' soul. With every turn, every encounter, and every horizon encountered, we aspire to submit to the road's silent tutelage, humbly learning the secrets of the world while nurturing the participants' spirit with knowledge beyond measure.

We also supported putting together the 2023 Black Solidarity Conference which brought to the Kweku Andoh Sustainability Institute various movements and organisations in the US and Ghana geared towards cooperatives to share what they do.

At AK, providing the space for such connections to happen amongst our people is paramount. We do not travel for travel sake. We travel to connect.

Offerings and feelings of lightness after visiting the enslaved river in Assin Manso.

Assin Manso served as the place where enslaved Afrikans had their last bath. It also has the site where the returned remains of 2 diasporans (Nana Crystal from Jamaica and Nana Carson from New York) were re-buried here also.

Ganvie, the city on stilts. The city of Ganvie came into being in the 1700s as people in the region fled to the lake to avoid enslavers. The lake, now the biggest in Afrika is home to about 35000 people and for a night on our Greener Pastures (Togo + Benin) program, we visit to learn about its history while giving gratitude for the sunset and sunrise from this mesmerising place. #blackpacking #blacktravel #blackwomentraveltoo #blackpassportstamps #visitghana #exploreghana #travelafrica #travelghana #ghanalife #travelnoire #visitghana #blacktraveler #beyondthereturn #ghana #melanatedpassports #travelwestafrica #blackpackers #abibikwantuo #visitafrica #exploreafrica #blackwanderlust #blackwanderer #blackpeopletraveltoo #blackandabroad #blackpeopletravel #blacktravelgram #yearofreturn #coloursofbenin #AKinBenin # #greenerpastures
