Let Away to Africa show you the hidden gems of Ghana on this culturally-rich and musically-motivated tour featuring Afrochella!

Away to Africa will kick off this cultural experience in Accra and lead you throughout Cape Coast, Aburi Mountain and many other jewels of Ghana. With Afrochella just a few days before the New Year, the festival showcases the vibrant culture of Africa with fashion, art installations and music. Relax and dance your heart out on Accra’s beautiful beaches while creating the experience of a lifetime with new friends.

The better version of the Coachella experience, Afrochella is the way to experience the last of the Year of Remembrance – focused on the music, culture and art of Africa.

If you are interested in learning more about the Diaspora with an authentic experience in an innovative way, then this trip is especially for you!

Looking to make the best of you time? Consider adding on Nigeria and/or Benin & Togo to your experience.

We had an amazing trip visiting the West Coast of Africa. Our tour guides in every country was so passionate and knowledgeable about thier country's history. The choice accommadastions were all first class. The choice of activities we did and visited in ech country was so beautifully designed with attention to detail. I can't wait to travel with Away to Africa on our next journey!

I traveled with Away to Africa for my second time in December 2023, that time to Nigeria. Some highlights of the trip included attending streetwear festival Street Souk and visiting Nike Art Gallery, Lekki Conservation Centre, Kalakuta Museum, Badagry, and Olumo Rock and the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta. I stayed at the Lagos Continental, a five-star hotel that in the past hosted the continental premiere of Black Panther 2. The best restaurant I went to is called 343 Degrees North, a Nigerian-South Asian fusion cuisine spot. There were a few challenges on the trip—traffic impacted the itinerary (that’s a given in Lagos); there was a cash shortage in the country at the time that made it difficult to exchange currency, plus I should have brought USD denominations of $50 or $100 instead of $20; we didn’t have a cooler of cold water bottles in the vehicle; and airport staff could have been more helpful and less troublesome, but overall it was a great and enjoyable introduction to Naija 🇳🇬 Shout out to my tour guide Motley!

Wow. This has been #1 on my bucket list since I was a small child. Choosing to book with Away to Africa helped make my dreams a reality! As for my experience, it was hands down the best time of life. I cried tears of joy every day, and every day was better than the last- from exploring Nairobi, to traveling through the Great Rift Valley to see Maasai Mara and the incredible wildlife, to the beautiful coastal region for the Lamu Yoga Festival. Away to Africa staff were available every step of the way, my guides were knowledgeable and pleasant to spend time with, and the staff at every stop were welcoming and friendly. I couldn't have planned this trip better myself, and have fallen in love with the country, the people, and the spirit. If you haven't been and are looking to change your life, choose Away to Africa.

This trip was life changing! It was well planned and executed. My husband and I felt like we were with family from beginning to end.

We celebrated my cousin’s 50th birthday in Ghana and we had a wonderful time! The people were amazing from the tour group to the staff at the venues we visited. The accommodations were great and the activities were exciting and educational. I highly recommend Away To Africa tours and a trip to Accra , Ghana.
