Ghana responsible tourism holidays
The word Ghana means "Warrior King," and was the source of the name "Guinea" (via French Guinoye) that is used to refer to the West African coast (as in Gulf of Guinea). Often considered as the friendliest country in West Africa, this country was the seat of the Royal Court of the once powerful Ashanti empire, whose vestiges are still visible today, not only in the archeoleogical sites, museums, libraries and university archives, but also still present in the Ghanaian culture. Festivals, ceremonies and social values are a testimony to the propsperous past of this amazing country. Discover these, as well as beautiful rainforests and glistening waterfalls, by browsing through our selection of Sustainable Tourism projects based in Ghana found below.
