Day Excursions
Ghana, one day at a time
Only have a day? It is enough to fall for this country. Choose an excursion, or string a few together and we'll handle the rest.
A day well spent
Every excursion below is private to you and your party, with a guide who knows the road and the people along it. All travel by air-conditioned Land Cruiser.
Central Region
Kakum National Park
Walk the tree-top canopy walkway high above the rainforest floor, then come back down for a guided trail through the forest.
Volta Region
Wli Waterfalls & the Volta
A full day in Ghana's greenest corner — the long walk to the falls, the mist at the top, and the markets of Ho on the way back.
Greater Accra
Accra's Story
Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, the Independence Arch and the old quarter, with a guide to place every stop in its proper story.
Ashanti Region
Markets & Kente
The colour and noise of a Ghanaian market, then the weavers' village where kente cloth is still cut by hand on the loom.
Anywhere you're staying
Drumming & Dance
A morning or an evening with local drummers and dancers — arranged at your hotel, or at a village nearby if you'd rather travel.
Greater Accra
Black Star Square & the Coast
The grand square, the ocean road and a long lunch of fresh-grilled fish before the evening.
Also worth a day
Ask us about the Cape Coast and Elmina castles, Aburi and its botanical gardens, the stilt village of Nzulezu, Shai Hills, or the palace museum at Kumasi. If it can be reached in a day, we can arrange it.
Excursions can be added to a tailored tour, or booked on their own for the nights you're already spending in Ghana.
Don't just dream it,
live it with Jata Tours.
