Guided by Afrocentric principles, this tour takes you across the country of Ghana, through the different ecological, ethnic, and political zones.

Encounters with lives and livelihoods of locals will present Ghana in historical and contemporary contexts through perspectives, oral traditions and oral histories of the people of Ghana themselves. This stands as an authentic counter narrative to Western-based written images of what is Ghanaian and African that usually contain significant distortions. Whether your first or further visit to Ghana, you will encounter new lives, nerves, and narratives for firsthand experiences you will cherish and be enriched by.
