3-Day Central & Western Ghana Attractions Tour

Overview

A Journey Over Water and Through Time

Your 3-day cultural and historical adventure begins in Ghana’s enchanting Western Region with a visit to Nzulezu, the iconic village on stilts. Glide through lush wetlands in a canoe as you approach this one-of-a-kind settlement built entirely over water—a living testament to resilience and tradition. From there, step into history at Fort St. Antonio in Axim, one of the oldest European-built structures in Ghana, where echoes of the past whisper through its coastal walls.

A Day at the Museum and Castles 

Day 2 begins at the modern and inspiring Bisa Aberwa Museum in Sekondi-Takoradi, which celebrates African heroes and history through powerful exhibits. From there we will continue to the hauntingly beautiful Elmina Castle, the oldest European building in sub-Saharan Africa. Walk through its dark dungeons and towering battlements, imagining the lives of those who passed through its doors. Just a short drive away, explore the equally powerful Cape Coast Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site rich with stories of endurance and tragedy. These sites offer a profound glimpse into the transatlantic slave trade and the strength of the human spirit.

Nature, Reflection, and Homecoming

Your final day brings a blend of nature and deep reflection. Start with a thrilling treetop adventure at Kakum National Park, where the canopy walkway offers breathtaking views of the rainforest below—an exhilarating experience for nature lovers. Next, visit Assin Manso, the site of the “Last Bath,” where enslaved Africans had their final wash before being taken to the coast. It’s a deeply moving space for remembrance and reconnection.

This journey through Ghana’s Central and Western regions isn’t just a tour—it’s a powerful exploration of heritage, resilience, and beauty. Book now to walk where history lives.
