Cape Coast Castle - Discover the enchantment of Cape Coast Castle by journeying back in time with Best Ghana Tours as they guide you through this historical wonder. A UNESCO World Heritage site, situated on Ghana’s breathtaking coastline, it holds centuries of stories within its whitewashed walls.

Kakum National Park - Kakum National Park, a place with rich history and cultural significance, is home to the Guan people, who have lived in harmony with the forest for centuries. In 1931, the British colonial government established Kakum as a forest reserve, and the Ghanaian government upgraded it to a national park in 1992, protecting 360 square kilometers of rainforest. The park features a 330-meter-long canopy walkway and is home to over 400 bird species, 600 butterfly species, 7 primate species, and various reptiles and insects.
Visit Kakum to experience the beauty and significance of this incredible ecosystem. - Elmina Castle - Where History Meets Living Heritage
Standing proudly against the Atlantic, Elmina Castle tells the story of Ghana’s powerful past. This UNESCO site, built in 1482, is sub-Saharan Africa’s oldest European structure. Its white-washed walls hold tales of gold trade and later, the dark history of slave trading. The castle presents striking contrasts - from the Governor’s opulent quarters to the grim dungeons below.
Below, Elmina’s fishing community thrives. At dawn, hundreds of colorful canoes return with fresh catch, as the harbor bursts into activity. Women negotiate prices while others smoke fish traditionally.
The town showcases coastal Ghanaian culture through its “posuban” shrines and bustling market life. Traditional boat building continues as women balance fish-laden pans through narrow streets. Local eateries serve fresh seafood.
Here, the solemn history of the castle blends with vibrant community life, offering visitors both a journey through time and a glimpse of modern Ghana.
