The Pan African Historical Festival (PANAFEST) is a bi-annual festival which celebrates people of Africa and of African descent in the Diaspora through art, culture, music, dance and theatre. This tour will give you the opportunity to learn the history of great Africans who worked in diverse ways during the fight for African independence from colonial rule and also of people of African descent in the Diaspora who contributed and continue to contribute immensely to the liberation struggle at the various seminars and colloquiums.

Our tour begins in the early European settlements of the 100 year old city of Accra, capital of Ghana, where modernity fuses with the British Colonial section, practice your bargaining skills in Accra’s arts and craft market as you purchase souvenirs for family and friends. A drive through the forest belt and up the Kwahu Mountains takes us to the small village of Aduamoah where we will take part in a traditional naming ceremony and also visit a local school. Continue to Kumasi, capital of the former great Ashanti Empire where we will have a rare chance to see the Ashanti King sitting in state during the Akwasidae festival. A wonderful opportunity to interact with the locals. Travel through to the coast to visit old historical monuments and visit the Slave Dungeons, a stopover at Assin Manso; a town that reminds us of slavery, a dance class where we will learn traditional Ghanaian dance forms, an exciting walk up a canopy 100ft above the forest ground at Kakum National Park, a farewell dinner and then a morning to unwind before your trip back home
