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

This is an excellent tour agency that provides an excellent, all inclusive safari experience in South Africa, especially in the renown Kruger National Park. The agency will provide a very detailed, day-by-day itinerary of the trip, which, for the most part, describes exactly the order of activities that a customer will experience from start to end of the reserved trip. Our safari trip included a hotel pick-up in Cape Town in the beginning of the safari trip and drop-off at the end of the trip. Flights to and from either Johannesburg or Mpumalanga airport are included. We reserved a 3-day safari trip which included an afternoon safari the first day, a full day safari the 2nd day, and a morning safari the 3rd day. The lodge where we stayed was very clean with modern and convenient accommodations, including WIFI and breakfast. The guides are well trained and very knowledgeable about all animals we came across during our trip, and were also very courteous, polite and easy to engage in conversation. They made our safari trip exciting but safe! I would highly recommend this safari tour agency. Christos Patriotis

I had an amazing trip. It was more than I could have expected. I got to see everything I wished to see while I was abroad. All the guides were lovely and provided me with excellent knowledge on their cities/tours. Especially in China where it was their holiday week and they all took time away from their families to make me around their cities. The tour company in Japan made sure I got to every tour destination and knew what the plan was for each day. This is the second time I have used Goway for traveling and it has exceeded my expectations. katieahotmail.com

We just returned from a 2 week tour of South Africa, Zimbabwe(Victoria Falls) and Botswana, and had a fabulous time! This was the third tour I've used Goway, and as usual, it was such a positive experience! The accommodations that were booked were awesome! The hotels were luxurious, clean and the staff, all so warm and welcoming! Our travel agent, Vanessa Lloyd, did a fabulous job arranging everything, and was always available to answer my many questions! We'll be using them again, next year when we take a family trip to the Greek Islands and Turkey! They are always consistent in the quality of the hotels and experiences, and I highly recommend them for your travel needs!Fran Nitta Barnes

We are still on our journey in Italy. At Capri now and heading to the Amalfi Coast. So far, we can’t thank Goway enough for putting our itinerary together so quickly. Everything is going well and hope the next 10 days are perfect too. Gladys Vivian

Can't say enough good things about Goway Travel. From the very start, our travel rep, Harpreet, listened carefully to what we were hoping to see and do on our first trip to Japan. She asked great questions and then came back to us with a detailed itinerary packed with adventure and fun, and all within our travel budget. From the moment we took off from LAX, Harpreet had made sure we had every tour voucher, hotel voucher, plane ticket, train ticket, literally every detail covered. All we had to do was follow our itinerary. Also, Harpreet booked us into terrific hotels. Each one was spotlessly clean, comfortable, included a full (and delicious) breakfast and, most importantly, was centrally located to all of the activities she had planned for us. So everything was a 5 or 10-minute walk away. In three weeks' time we were able to visit six cities and so many fascinating shrines, temples, castles, imperial palaces - most of which were World Heritage sites. Harpreet also tucked in fabulous "experiences" like learning how to make sushi with a professional chef, enjoying a tea ceremony and watching graceful Geishas dance. My husband and I are seasoned travelers. But we don't speak Japanese and we really knew very little about the country. There is no way we would have been able to see and do all of the fascinating things we did in Japan if we hadn't chosen Goway Travel to be our guide. Many thanks for an unforgettable trip!

Great country (Italy), great people and love the feel you get by just being you. Ingrid Aird did a great job with a pair of tours one private and one group. Organizing pickup from airport and flights. Hotel, Enterprise Hotel, after a bit of a rough start getting us into a proper room, was more than excellent.Thomas Helps

We were looking forward to a magical vacation in Greece, and Goway Travel delivered on all fronts. This is the second time that we have booked with them (the first being an incredible excursion in Thailand), and everything went along swimmingly. Only on one occasion did a tour go sideways, but our Goway specialist (Patrick) took care of it for us. When your tour involves many flights, numerous hotels, various tours, ferries, and transfers, it is nice to know that your travel specialist can handle it all. Goway (from Patrick to all the other staff involved) handled everything in such a professional manner. Thanks Goway for such an incredible experience in Greece. I look forward to another adventure in the near future!Jenny Friess

We recently returned from France - three cities in two weeks - and our trip was fantastic! Jacqueline helped us with a return to France with no worries and concerns. Drivers met us at every destination- hotels were superb and the individual tours memorable. This is a return vacation with Goway and we could not be more pleased. The customer service is top notch and all questions answered promptly. For us seniors, we appreciate all the thoughtfulness and consideration.ElizaGray

While researching suppliers for a clients Thailand honeymoon, I remembered being referred to GoWay by a longterm TA ….because they “get it right and get it done!” I had already started their training modules, so I put in a quote. Immediately, Taylor responded with a very thorough email and we decided to chat. I gave him my specifics and he again responded immediately and matched my client’s travel needs 100%. I found it comforting to speak with a country expert with the knowledge I needed. My clients booked their vacation and are very excited about their itinerary! Thank you Taylor for making this process seamless.Karla B
