Description


Accra's Day Tour Thrill

Get ready to plunge into the electric heart of Ghana! This is more than just a sightseeing trip; it’s a high-energy, fun, and deeply informative day that blends Ghana's powerful past with its vibrant, modern-day pulse.

1. NATIONAL MUSEUM OF GHANA ( Roots of Ghana: Ancient to Modern)

We kick off at Ghana’s premier museum, the oldest and largest in the country. Forget dusty exhibits—this is where you connect with the soul of the nation! We’ll explore everything from Stone Age tools and powerful chief's regalia to vibrant contemporary Ghanaian art. See ancient treasures, traditional textiles, and unique artifacts from all over the African continent.

2. MAKOLA MARKET (The Colour & Chaos of the Capital)

Brace yourself for Accra's ultimate sensory experience! We'll dive into Makola Market, the largest open-air market, where you'll witness the incredible energy and joyful hustle of the legendary market women. It’s a photographer’s dream and the perfect spot to try your hand at friendly bargaining for a quick local souvenir while enjoying the colourful, joyful life of the city.

3. BLACK STAR SQUARE (Black Star Power )

Stand beneath the iconic Black Star and the towering Independence Arch. This is hallowed ground—the physical symbol of Ghana's freedom and pride. We’ll capture some amazing photos and talk about the powerful moment in history when Ghana led the charge for African independence.

4.ART CENTER (Bargain & Beats)

It’s time to shop! This massive craft market is the best place to find genuine Ghanaian souvenirs—from hand-carved masks, African jewellery, Art and Paintings and statues to vibrant fabrics.

5. James Town Lighthouse (Old Accra's Grit & Glory)

We'll take a compelling walk through historic Jamestown, one of the oldest districts. See the iconic red-and-white Lighthouse and get up close to the two major colonial-era prisons, James Fort and Ussher Fort, giving you a powerful, visceral sense of Accra’s layered history.

6. OSU CASTLE (Power & Politics)

Witness the history of Osu Castle (formerly Christiansborg Castle) . Originally built as a Danish fort for the transatlantic slave trade, it later became the seat of Government for centuries, including Ghana’s former Presidential office. It’s a powerful viewpoint where we’ll discuss the transition from colonial power to independent democracy.

7.KWAME NKRUMAH MEMORIAL PARK (The First President's Legacy)

Pay your respects at the majestic final resting place of Ghana's first President and Pan-African hero, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. This beautiful park and mausoleum are dedicated to the visionary who declared, "Ghana, your beloved country, is free forever!"

8.LABADI BEACH( Beach Chill & Farewell)

After an epic, sweaty day, it's time to unwind! We end the tour at Accra's most popular beach. Dig your toes into the sand, grab a cool drink, and choose from an incredible selection of local seafood, continental meals, and other treats as we celebrate a fantastic day.
