After picking you up from your location in Accra, we will travel to Kumasi, the capital city of the Ashanti region, a very important and historical Centre for Ghana. Tradition is held very high in Kumasi and blends very well with modernity. There is a wide range of attractions in Kumasi. Manhyia Palace is the seat of the Ashanti Kingdom, which also served as the residence of the 13th & 14th Kings of the Ashanti Kingdom as well as the present King Otumfour Osei Tutu II. The palace museum holds numerous historical artefacts, war amulets, and more to help you learn more about the history of the country. You will also be able to visit the mysterious Okomfo Anokye Sword site, which serves as the symbol of unity of the Ashanti Empire. Nightlife in Kumasi is a different experience all together and one you do not want to miss out on. We will conclude the excursion by visiting one of the foremost cultural institutions in Ghana, the Kumasi Cultural Centre where you will discover top artisans in the business of craft such as Kente weaving, wood carving, pottery and much more!
