Slave River • Castle Tour
Bursting with history and pride, Cape Coast is one of Ghana’s most significant spots. Discover the city as we revisit some of the country’s most painful memories.
Get knee-deep into Ghana’s slavery past by stepping on the path of thousands of the enslaved people.
Our journey begins in the Assin Manso Ancestral Slave River, which served as the final link in the slavery route from Northern Ghana.
The river was were prisoners had the chance to bathe before a 3-week naked trek through the dense forest.
Then, we’ll go back to the city and visit Elmina Castle, in the bowels of the dungeon is where enslaved Africans were held before being transported to destinations throughout the world.
Listen to first-hand accounts of the country’s grueling slavery route and go up to the Door of Return, also known as ‘door of no return’, the last frontier between the dungeons and the huge slave ships waiting on the port.
Afterwards, we’ll return to a local beach where you’ll have the time to dine, ride horses, and relax.
