Tours & Activities in Accra

Walk the commercial part of Accra central visiting the Makola market. See some still standing colonial structures such as the General Post Office and the Holy Trinity Cathedral Church. Continue to the Independence Square and visit the Eternal Flame of African Liberation, lit by Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah.

Experience a memorable walking tour of the Makola Market that stood at the heart of the urban city.

The market is the main wholesale and retail marketplace in Accra, the epicenter of trade in Ghana. See the various commodities of the market ranging from fresh vegetables to textiles. It offers a variety of products both local and exotic which some of you would want to see and buy.

This market is the largest in Accra, is close to some tourist sites such as Jamestown fishing village, The National Theatre, Kwame Nkrumah Museum, and the Independence Square. It also offers a good old architectural structure and this is where both, new and second hand used clothing are bought before people buy the on their boutiques and shops. It might be a local market but trading activities here feel exciting seeing the crowd moving in all directions with each one trying to find what he or she came to buy.

We will start from Tudu, a line of old story buildings where brand-new clothes are wholesales, visit Kantamanto where imported second hand clothing are sold at wholesale and retail. We will enter Okaishie where the women vendors stand on the busy streets to sell their products. Continue to the African fabric and textiles shops.

We will finish at Rawlings Park, a well-maintained car park for both traders and visitors to the market.

Accra is the capital of GHANA and it has very high historical places that I usually take my guests to and I can say that it is an amazing place. First of all, we start at the Nationalism Park, which has the memory of the shooting of the soldiers of the Second World War, the Independence Square, where Freedom was declared, and we move on to an artistic center in Accra where they are made and they sell local handicrafts, such as Beads, drums, traditional clothing and any other local clothing you can think of, from there to the Dr. Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park where the mortal body of the first president of Ghana is kept with all its logistics and belongings. Later, in the Fort Ussher built in the 17th century and also in the Jamestown Prison, after touring the city of Jamestown, the British city of the Gold Coast, we find many wonderful places such as the lighthouse and the only waterfall in the heart of the dodowa forest.
