Ideas for a Family Vacation In Ghana by 40manlappy: 11:29pm On Jul 16, 2016
I would have preferred a family vacation to any of the following island locations: Zanzibar, Seychelles or Mauritius. However, due to the current state of the naira in relation to forex, my wife and I are considering Ghana to conserve scarce resources.

I am fiddling with the thought of booking a beachside hotel to "compensate" for the inability to go to the above-mentioned locations but I would like to ask frequent/recent travellers to the country for their recommendations on good beach hotels in Accra/Ghana that are affordable and nice.

Also, what places of interest would make our vacation worthwhile in Accra/Ghana generally? I have searched for information online but it would be nice to get practical insights.

Also, is it better to use travel agencies for packaged tours?

Thank you.

Mr Oga, you don't have to say anything here if you have nothing useful to say. Nobody forced you to come here.

What do you know about Obudu or Tinapa? Nobody is stopping you from staying permanently in your Sambisa.

Swerve!

All hail thee the blind that seeth the truth but taketh no action
We all want a buoyant naira yet you are going to crash it more. If you think you know all I urge you to expand your horizon as at this moment your view Is bleak. If you feel you got bucks you should know I made that same bucks far younger than you did. I should stay in my sambisa see talk. Remember these words WHERE YOURS ENDS IS JUST AN INTRO TO ANOTHER'S. What you drink don't make me piss. Have a great trip. I would suggest the Gambia for your vacation. English speaking,beautiful and better than Ghana. Have a good night. No hard feelings

There are lots of exotic places to visit while in Ghana such as the following

1. Nkurumah Mausoleum in Accra
2. Akosombo Dam in Volta Region
3. The Cape Coast and Elmina Castle
4. Kakum National Park with the longest canopy walk in Africa
5. Shia Hills for a walk with Nature
6. Several Forts highlighting the throes of slave trade
7. Exotic beaches
8. Many more

The people are receptive and welcoming. If you got access to package tour, might be cheaper than coming down and chartering a cab or minivan. It all depends on your bargaining power though.

Thanks for the Gambia suggestion. I wouldn't have come here if I thought I knew it all. Nobody is an island of knowledge.

You can actually contribute on a thread without being insultive or provocative, you know. Good day.

Being "common" is far better than being "useless".
This coming out from someone from the most useless country on earth(i.e nigeria) sounds funny.

Ghana is like England to most Africans including u idiots.
GHANA is far better than the zoo u hail from.
Who would even wish to come for a vacation in a useless zoo like nigeria?
Animals will even reject a free flight to nigeria.

Thanks

I believe you have gotten some good information from some people here who make reasonable comments. I do arrange special travel packages in these manner.
However, being that you are being mindful of expenses I will suggest that you consider the beautiful peaceful small city of Lome in Togo. I can give you a great vacation package to suit you and fit your budget. You will get a beautiful hotel by the beach, and you will get information of various fun activities and places to visit around the city.
