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

Brooke Theron has booked 3 trips for us, France and Tunisia in 2025 and we have just returned from a 2 week trip from China. The entire trip was flawless, from the research to the booking Brooke is always soo helpful in whole process. Brooke always works with us to answer any questions and make sure any request we have can be added. Our tour guides James, Helen, Felicity and Keira and drivers were all top notch with lots of information on each stop and sent us onto our next stop with no problems. The hotels, trains and tours were all excellent. We couldn't have asked for more I look forward to working with Brooke and Goway tours on our next vacation.Maddie

Bijal and Martin (tour guide in Kenya) made this the trip of a lifetime. I felt safe every minute of the trip. I did not care for the travel from the Serengeti to Ngorogoro Crater. I felt the last hotel was too far from the crater i was exhausted not wanted to travel to the crater. The travel was absolutely brutal for 6 hoursKathie Becker

Our safari in Tanzania was excellent. Brooke Theron, our Goway representative, was easy to work with, responsive and knowledgeable. Our guide in Tanzania, Anwar Razak, was outstanding. His knowledge and his driving ability was impressive. He was also engaging. We enjoyed our time with Anwar. The camps that Goway recommended were comfortable, welcoming and surprisingly luxurious while capturing the essence of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We had a wonderful trip. Jack B.

I am so happy to use Goway for my tour experience while visiting Vietnam during Oct 15 through October 29, 2026. We had 3 very good, thoughtful, and caring guides in Hanoi, Danang, and Ho Chi Minh City. They were very knowledgeable for each of their respective areas. they all fulfilled every part of our itinerary. I wish to give an extra acknowledgment to my guide in Danang and Hoi An. Mr. Phung Van Hung was very friendly and caring for me. During my stay in Hoi An, I became sick and required a visit to the local hospital in Hoi An. I contacted Mr. Phung, and he graciously offered to take me and stay with me to interpret during my visit for medical care even though he was not working that day. I really appreciate his extra above and beyond service he provided. I really must let Goway know, he is a wonderful guide!George C.

Suzzette and her team provided exceptional support throughout our year‑long planning process for our Bali group. Despite multiple changes, updates, and last‑minute cancellations, she remained organized, responsive, and solution‑focused. Asia Trails Indonesia delivered a seamless experience from arrival to departure, and our guides, Dayu and Adit, were outstanding; prompt, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. The coordination across multiple departure cities, the curated excursions, and the overall flow of the itinerary were executed beautifully. My group thoroughly enjoyed the trip and is already asking about returning. I highly recommend Suzzette as a group coordinator for her professionalism, dedication, and high‑quality service.Anchored Memories Travel

Mike K. graciously provided us with a perfect itinerary, offering us flexible high quality options for our trip. We added in a few complex details and he maneuvered around them creating smooth transitions. Planning an overseas 11 day trip can be overwhelming and Mike made everything feel easy. I highly recommend!Amy Challgren

Goway staff was available to us throughout our entire trip to Costa Rica. Their involvement was seamless and surprisingly smooth between them and all of our hotels and tours. We have been totally impressed with their involvement with our travel agent and their complete resolution of the only problem we had during the 2 different international trips that we have taken.Diana McCrory

Thank you to Goway for a great and enjoyable 7 day tour in China, for our Canadian group of 14! Very special thanks to the local guides in Shanghai, Xi’an and Beijing ( Richard, Richard and James) who were second to none! Each was a knowledgeable ambassador for their home city, working hard to ensure our enjoyment and comfort, and to showcase the beauty of each area and its current and historical sites. They very kindly and patiently assisted everyone, and especially accommodated 2 of our group who encountered unexpected wellness challenges. The local bus drivers for our group were experts too, keeping us on time and safe on the roads and highways. Hotels were beautiful, welcoming, well located and appointed, quiet, comfortable and clean. Additional travel arrangements by air and high speed train went off without a hitch. KATHLEEN LLOYD
