About this trip
The best gifts don’t break, don’t get old and cannot be lost. A tour of Ghana, West Africa is one gift that will last for a lifetime for any age. An experience such as this tour will be ingrained in the participants memory and burn in their hearts forever. We will arrive in Accra and explore the inspiration behind the independence movement of the country lead by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. We will keep the exact details flexible to make room for holiday celebrations, the many music festivals and set nights, but you will experience the spirit of freedom that nudged the civil rights movement in the U.S. and called for the unification of the diaspora. We will also take two days to visit Cape Coast to complete a mini Sankofa Return experience. Then, we will hop back on the Detty December train till we bring in the new year!
Understand, this heavily discounted rate is temporary. It is for a limited time as the itinerary cannot be solidified until we are 10 months out. This offer will close at midnight on Feb 23.
