Ghana is a gateway to west Africa and beyond. Known for the wonderful, welcoming nature of its people, its golden beaches, vibrant contemporary culture, and extraordinary history of the Ashanti Kingdom, a cultural tour with Active Avifauna Tours will be an unforgettable experience. Ghana is recognised as a UNESCO world heritage site. We will visit the forts and castles dotted along the coastline and explore Ghana’s history as a centre of the slave trade and its experience of colonialism – an overwhelming educational and emotional experience. 

There’s more to see than just what you think! Other attractions include Kakum National Park which offers you a vibrant view of the natural environment by walking on the Canopy Walkway – a series of suspended bridges and Mole National Park, Ghana’s premier wildlife viewing reserve. 

On a cultural tour, we will uncover Ghana’s rich history, diverse customs, the famous traditional KENTE clothes, the ADINKRA symbols, landscape and the incredible waterfalls. Book a tour with us and feel it for yourself.
