Imagine venturing into a country where vivid cities harmonize with tranquil landscapes, where culture pulses with ancient pride, and where every meal is a celebration of flavours. Ghana, the heart of West Africa, beckons with a promise of adventure and unforgettable experiences. Custom holiday trips to Ghana have never been more enticing, and creating your own Ghana travel packages is a dream for those seeking a blend of comfort and authenticity.

The Charm of Accra

Your journey might begin in Accra, the vibrant capital, where the air is alive with a mix of modernity and tradition. Here, bustling markets contrast with serene beaches, offering a perfect introduction to Ghanaian life. Stroll through the Makola Market, where vendors display everything from colourful textiles to handcrafted artifacts. The rhythm of the city beats strongest at the Oxford Street, a culinary and cultural hub that's home to lively bars, eateries, and art galleries.

Immerse Yourself in History

Ghana's history is as rich as its landscape. Cape Coast and Elmina castles stand as solemn reminders of the transatlantic slave trade. These UNESCO heritage sites provide a profound glimpse into a world that once was, urging reflection and reverence. As you explore these fortresses, the stories etched in their walls will transport you to another era, making these visits essential in any custom travel packages to Ghana.

Experience the Wildlife

For the nature enthusiast, Mole National Park is a paradise waiting to be discovered. Imagine spotting elephants roaming freely in their natural habitat, or observing antelope grazing gracefully against the backdrop of savanna landscapes. Guided safaris offer opportunities to witness these magnificent creatures up close. Enrich your experience further by staying overnight in nearby lodges, where the sounds of the wild provide a unique symphony under the African sky.

A Cultural Mosaic

Venture north to experience the mystique of the Ashanti region, where tradition is woven into the very fabric of daily life. The city of Kumasi, Ghana’s second-largest city, is renowned for its vibrant markets such as the Kejetia Market, and the revered Manhyia Palace Museum, offering insights into the illustrious Ashanti Kingdom. This cultural dive is a highlight of personalized Ghana travel packages, allowing travellers to tailor experiences that resonate personally.

Gastronomic Adventures

No trip to Ghana is complete without indulging in its culinary delights. The dishes are a testament to the warmth and hospitality of its people. Whether devouring jollof rice, savouring the smoky flavours of suya (grilled kebabs), or trying your hands at preparing fufu with a local family, these experiences add layers to any custom holiday trips to Ghana. Food tours and cooking classes can be the perfect additions to your travel agenda.

Coastal Serenity

For those seeking relaxation, the coastline offers breathtaking beaches and tranquil escapes. Resorts along the Gulf of Guinea provide idyllic spots for unwinding, soaking in the sun, and enjoying the serene sounds of the ocean. From bustling spots like Labadi Beach to secluded stretches near Takoradi, each location can be woven into bespoke Ghana travel packages tailored to your desires.

Ghana invites exploration with open arms and vibrant spirit. Whether you’re crafting custom holiday trips to Ghana or selecting curated Ghana travel packages, the possibilities here are endless and diverse. The country’s rich tapestry of experiences awaits your discovery, ready to leave you with memories that last a lifetime.

Globetrotters might not know that one of Ghana's traditions is to name their children based on the day of the week they were born. This custom, where each day of the week has specific male and female names, is still widely practiced. Clients can actually do a naming ceremony in Ghana where they get a name based on the day they were born and an Ghanaians name based on what the chief decides on the day he meets you

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
