Below is a comprehensive day-by-day break down of where we will be journeying!

DAY 1! (May 6th)

Akwaaba, in the Ghanaian language of Twi means Welcome! 

The group will arrive at Kotoka Airport, and we will get settled in hotel. Once everyone is settled, we will sit down, reason, and become acquainted with each other!

DAY 2! (May 7th)

We know you have traveled a great way to have your feet walk on the land of our Ancestors!!! So let's relax a bit today, as we have much ahead of us!

We will take a light trip to the Pan African Village of Our Natural Roots located in Nsawam, Ghana! The group can experience first hand all the works we are fulfilling! This village will serve partly as a Repatriation Village which aids the Diaspora with transitioning from the Western World (or Europe) to the African Continent! Repatriates will have access to housing, fresh organic produce from our farm, and a solid network of other Repatriates that are already living in Ghana!

 DAY 3! (May 8th)

CAPE COAST!!!!!

On Day 3 we will all take the trip down to Cape Coast, a space that is home to a growing community of Africans from the Diaspora who feel an intense connection to this place. 

On our way to the Cape Coast, we will first stop at Assin Manso, also known as "The Last Bath". This is a river where Africans were taken to wash their bodies for the last time, then they were branded with a hot iron, and tragically sent to Cape Coast Dungeon or other Dungeons along the West African Coast.

After Assin Manso, let's drive straight to the coast and check in to our guesthouse named Mable's Table established by none other than our great Brother Mr. Rabbi and his wife who has repatriated to Ghana many years ago! We will rest here for the night.

 DAY 4! (May 9th)

After a great night's rest and a cleansing breakfast, we will continue journeying deeper into Cape Coast and visit the Cape Coast Dungeon. This dungeon is a space where countless Africans were held awaiting to be perilously shipped from West Africa to the Western World. A history guide will journey with us through the dungeons to enlighten us on what exactly took place during the time the Dungeon was operating.

Ok let's lighten it up a bit! Let's change out of our all-white, and then head to Kakum National Park! It is known for its walkable canopies that are many feet above the ground! Take in the nature sounds, and conquer your courage concerning heights! 

 DAY 5! (May 10th)

Ok family, Cape Coast was a blast! There is more to see! We are heading back up to Accra, and rest a bit before moving on! 

     ---

As we reach Accra, we will stop at West Hills Mall to pick up all necessary items to take back with you to your hotel rooms! Use this time to shop, look around, and enjoy a Ghanaian Mall!!!

After the fun at West Hills Mall, lets head on over to one of the most AMAZING beaches in Accra....KOKOROBITE BEACH!!! After our fun in the setting sun, let's eat dinner near the beach and then head to our cozy hotel!

DAY 6! (May 11TH)

Today we have a couple of places to visit, as they are all close in proximity! First we visit the W.E.B. Dubois Center to learn about the life, works, and intelligence of Dubois. He was the first African-American ever to receive a PhD from Harvard University. He spent his later years here in Ghana and created a Pan-African Library right here in Accra that still stands to this very day!

Next, let's experience the Memorial of the First President of Ghana! The Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park and Mausoleum!!!! Ghana regained its Independence in the year 1957, and Pan-African Kwame Nkrumah worked diligently for the progression of the newly founded African Nation of Ghana!

We have all worked up a bit of an appetite, right?! Lets head on over to Asaase Pa Vegan Restaurant! A popular Plant-Based restaurant that is not far at all from the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial. 

After, we will relax back at our hotel before the BIG day tomorrow! We are on our way to the VOLTA REGION!!!!!!!

DAY 7! (May 12th)

We have rested very well! Now we set off early to see what the Volta Region has to offer!

First, as we arrive, we will arrive at the KASI (Kweku Andoh Sustainability Institute) Project! This is a space that is being developed by the HABESHA (Helping Africa By Establishing Schools At Home and Abroad) Organization! Its intention is to host classes on Organic Agriculture, Herbal Medicines, Solar Panels, and MORE! 

DAY 8! (May 13th)

We've gotten great rest....now....it is time.....WE ARE CLIMBING THE TALLEST mountain in Ghana! Mt. Afadjato!! Do you have what it takes to make it to the top?! Let's do it!

 Next we will descend the mountain, rest, and head over to Tagbo Falls!!!! One of the most gorgeous waterfalls in the Volta Region!!! The bottom of the waterfall resides inside of a cooling rainforest!

We take it in to our hotel/guest home, eat a great dinner and rest!!!! Enjoy the Volta Region!

DAY 9! (May 14th)

All Aboard!!! Volta Region, you have been AMAZING!!! Now let's take the journey back into Accra! 

On our way to Accra, we will stop by the Monkey Sanctuary!!!! The monkeys in this area have close contact with humans! You will be given bananas to feed them, and they will cautiously walk right up to you! If you are skilled enough, you may can even have a monkey sitting on your shoulder happily eating!

When settled in Accra, we will use this day to rest, reflect, and give thanks!

DAY 10! (May 15th)

The tour is winding down a bit! Last but not least we will journey over to the Arts Center for the purchasing of gifts, arts, crafts, and Ghana souvenirs to take back with you to your country of residence! 

This will also be a rest day to commune, gather belongings in preparation for airplane travel, and reflecting on your trip to our Mother Continent! 

 DAY 11! (May 16th)

We awake and reflect on the tour. Say our see ya laters and guests will return to their country of residence. Thank you so much for participating! Africa Awaits Her Creators and Her Creation!!!!
