Useful Information

Visas
Visas are required by most non-residents except ECOWAS nationals. Ghana Missions and Embassies abroad will assist in issuing individual as well as group visas.
Weather
Ghana is a tropical country. The South Western part is located within the warm wet forest zone similar to the Amazon. Accra, the capital, is located in the dry equatorial zones. Kumasi is in the wet savanna.
Vaccinations
Yellow fever vaccination required by all except infants under one year. Please do not forget to bring your health Certificate which shows that you have a yellow fever vaccination. You are also advised to consult your doctor well in advance of your visit so that you may begin the usual anti-malaria treatment.
Money
Ghana’s currency is the cedi which comes in denominations of GHC 200, 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1. Coins come in denominations of GHC 2 and 1 and also 50p, 20p, 10p, 5p & 1 pesewas. Foreign currency can be freely exchanged at any Bank or Forex Bureaux in the country.
Water
Tap water is safe but it is advisable for visitors to use bottled drinking water which is available for sale in hotels and supermarkets.
Packing
Since the climate is warm and tropical all year round be sure to pack light washable cotton clothing and casual wear. Do not forget your sunglasses and comfortable walking shoes.
If heritage and history are what you are looking for, experiencing the now silent memorials to the tragic slave trade era found across Ghana is educational and an emotional event for many people.
Ancient mosques and traditional Islamic communities of the drier less-populated north are a stark contrast to the more developed, lush tropical climate of southern Ghana. Nature lovers will revel at the prospect of walking with elephants in Mole National Park or searching for primates and pangolin in the rainforest of Kakum National Park. There truly is something for everyone and Ghana offers exceptional hiking, biking, and eco-tourism opportunities. In fact it is impossible to fit all of Ghana into one webpage so contact us today to create your own bespoke trip to Ghana
