Your Travel Experience with Finest Journeys
Explore the Ashanti Region
Embarking on an early start, we bid farewell to our hotel and head northwards toward Ghana's Ashanti Region. Our journey unveils the picturesque Akuapem hills, offering panoramic views of Accra and Tema in the distance. Atop this range lies the serene Aburi botanical gardens, established by the British in 1890. Rich in indigenous and exotic flora, the gardens showcase medicinal plants explained by our guide, offering stunning vistas of Accra. Adjacent to the gardens lies the inviting Aburi craft village, a hub of traditional craftsmanship where artisans carve African drums and sculptures. Delight in observing skilled craftsmen at work and seize the opportunity to purchase souvenirs at remarkably low prices. Explore the sculptures' cultural significance, intricately linked to local beliefs and traditions. After lunch in Koforidua, the Eastern Region's capital, our journey proceeds to Kumasi, the Ashanti Region's hub. Following check-in at our accommodation, the evening is free for leisure, allowing relaxation after an eventful day.
