We will be visiting either Cape Coast Castle or Elmina Castle and Kakum Canopy walk. City or highway traffic can sometimes affect the travel times, so we can only visit one or both castles ( if you don't fancy hikes and heights then we can skip the Kakum canopy park as this hike can be challenging and not ideal for seniors and those with mobility challenges,) we aim to head back to Accra before night falls.
If you have an extra day to spare we encourage you book our overnight stay package that will allow you the leisure of time and pace at a great beach resort and explore all 3 major activities.

The canopy tour was tones of fun and a work out going up the hill. However, the view once you reach the top was absolutely stunning! Then we went to the cape coast castle which was insightful and heartbreaking at the same time. The castle tour of where the transatlantic slave trade began was emotional but extremely informative.
All in all, it was a great experience that I recommend that you participate in. And our tour guide Amara was fun, helpful, accommodating and he was very knowledgeable about the Ghana and the various cultural experiences.

We had a great and memorable trip to the Cape Coast. About a 3 hour drive from Accra.
Our guide (Kapito) was amazing. Super personable and informative. My friend and I opted out of the Kakum Canopy/National Park, so we started our time on the Coast with beachside breakfast. We first visited Elmina and then Cape Coast Castle. The two castles differ essentially only by the countries that claimed historical possession. But their common history lies in the horrendous history that was slavery. Visiting the former slave dungeons provides an opportunity to briefly relieve this horror. It is a necessary experience, not just for Africans and descendants of the African Diaspora. This is an important experience for all humans that believe knowing our past helps us to not repeat it!
We ended our time with another beachside meal and then returned to Accra.
