Description:

Pick up a true slice of African culture at Accra’s colorful, open-air markets. With a knowledgeable, local guide by your side, weave through these vibrant centers of commerce and learn why they remain such an important cornerstone to the lives of the Ghanaian people.

Kick off the afternoon by greeting your guide in Old Accra. From here, head towards the Makol and Salaga markets. Gain some haggling tips and pointers on the way before confidently taking off into the crowds to test out your new skills. Towers of hand-woven baskets, rainbow-hued spice displays, and tantalizing street food beckon you at every turn for a closer look.

Next, walk to Arena Accra’s timber market, where a vast variety of wood is sourced from local forests and plantations. Then swing by an herbal market to see a fascinating selection of roots, leaves, and herbs being showcased. Learn about their uses in traditional Ghanaian medicine and first-aid, as well as how they are utilized in the country's voodoo religion.
