Ghana Travel Guide

Flights to Ghana travel to a West African country of smiling faces and close-up wildlife encounters. Begin your Ghana holiday in the bustling capital Accra. Wander Independence Square, admire the energy of women traders at Makola Market and pick up Djembe drums and vibrant textiles at the Art Centre. Ghana flights reveal Langma's secluded beaches, perfect for catching Atlantic waves and slurping coconut juice. The UNESCO-protected castles at Elmina and Cape Coast are a grim reminder of the slave trade. Nature lovers book airline tickets to Ghana to stroll the palm-fringed avenues at Aburi Botanical Gardens or to feed Colobus monkeys at Boaben-Fiema sanctuary. Spot elephants and baboons at Mole National Park, or get dizzy on the 30m-high canopy walk through Kakum National Park.

A ticket to Ghana appeals to adventurous food lovers. Try fufu (mashed cassava) with palmnut soup, or peppery fried fish at the ubiquitous chop bars. After dark, Accra's lively bars boast Afro beats and palm wine. KLM has frequent flights to Ghana. Book airline tickets to experience top events. Ghana celebrates the Homowo Festival in August with drumming and colourful parades. Akwasidae festivals are held every six weeks to honour the ancestors and the Ashanti king.
