Visit Cape Coast, the capital of the Central Region in Southern Ghana and known for its role in the transatlantic slave trade. Begin with a visit to the Kakum National Park, home to endangered mammals. The park is rich in butterflies and birds, and also has a suspended canopy walkway 30 meters above the ground. Take a transfer in an air-conditioned 4x4 cross country. Stay refreshed en route with water and snacks and chat to your experienced, friendly, and helpful guide. Visit Elmina Castle, which was erected by the Portuguese in 1482. It was the first trading post built on the Gulf of Guinea and is the oldest European building in existence south of the Sahara. Then, depart for Cape Castle. Cape Coast Castle is one of about forty "slaves castles," or large commercial forts, built on the Gold Coast of West Africa by European traders. It was originally a Portuguese feitoria or trading post, established in 1555. At the end of your tour, return to Accra.

Start with pickup from your accommodation in Accra. Meet your friendly and experienced guide before traveling to the Shai Hills Resource Reserve located within the city. Once at the Reserve, embark on a safari drive. See a variety of wildlife species in one of the most easily accessible nature reserves in the region. Try to spot native animals including zebras, antelopes, baboons, and many bird species. Sit back and relax in a 4x4 as your professional driver drives you through the serene landscape. You'll also feast on an inclusive lunch and refreshments. Enjoy a cruise on the man-made Volta Lake. Travel by boat to Ghana's prime hydro-electric plant, set in lush, green tropical vegetation.
