Flexible group sizes from 1 to 8 travelers work well for solo travelers or families on this 10-day Ghana trip. Smaller groups allow for more personal interactions at Manhyia Palace in Kumasi and better wildlife viewing during morning game drives at Mole National Park when searching for elephants. Travel between destinations happens in a private air-conditioned van, visiting places like Cape Coast Castle, Elmina Castle, and Kakum National Park. Your guide adjusts the pace based on your group's interests, especially at craft villages including Ahwiaa for woodcarving and Bonwire for Kente cloth weaving.

It is well planned and well coordinated, with hotels and tours. We were very much looked after with guide, Prince and driver. It was very interesting; we saw and enjoyed all the highlights.
