DAY 1! (OCTOBER 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! (OCTOBER 7th)

We know the air travel into Ghana was quite the trip! So let's take it easy on our first full day in our Beautiful African Continent! We will take a 20 minute drive from our hotel in the Aburi Mountains! Here we will visit the great Aburi Botanical Gardens and have a plant-based lunch at the Inity Juice Bar! Empress Imara, the owner, is originally from New York and Atlanta respectively. She has received Ghanaian Citizenship, and has been living in Ghana for over the past 20 years! Lets converse with her wide range of experiences!

 DAY 3! (OCTOBER 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, 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.

After Cape Coast Dungeon lets ride to Elmina, Ghana (20 minute drive) 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! (OCTOBER 9th)

After our cleansing breakfast and listening to the calming ocean waves of West Africa let's 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! 

After the Kakum National Park we will grab lunch and later we will visit the Elmina Dungeon! You can see the structure from our Hotel on the ocean. This is yet another place where our ancestors were held before being shipped to the Western World! Take in all the history!!!!

 DAY 5! (OCTOBER 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!

Sitting on the most fertile farmland of two acres, the My Natural Roots Headquarters building is a three story structure that comes with a Conference Center and a Pan-African Library! We have a videographer coming to shoot a YouTube video of your tour of the site! Enjoy! 

After the My Natural Roots Headquarters Tour, we will take a 10 minute drive down the road to a land that has 66 Acres available for sale! We are aiming to build a Pan-African community where we can be each other's own security and guidance into repatriation into the African Continent! This is also a Real-Estate Tour!

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 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. 

      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!
