Touring the Most Beautiful Part of Mother Africa

Since the dawn of the Bronze Age, the earliest of humankind were found living in what is now known as the Republic of Ghana.  Europeans called it the Gold Coast for its rich precious metal but for those generations that have lived there, been kidnapped, sold and displaced to the many corners of the world, Ghana remains a special part of the heart and soul and Mother Africa. 

With a democratic parliamentary government, West Africa Ghana has flourished and their economy is listed by the research group, Economy Watch as The World’s Fastest Growing Economy of 2011.  The Republic of Ghana’s constant prices for its national currency, one that is not converted to US dollars, is perhaps one of the reason’s this jewel of Africa is predicted to experience an almost 20% growth rate in the coming year. With its abundance of natural resources such as timber, oil, cocoa, diamonds and gold, Ghana has one resource above all others that have remained its most prominent asset – the people. 

The soul of Ghana can be found in the bright eyes of her inhabitants.  With a labor force of over 11 million people, the glittering landscape of humanity in West Africa thrives on the industrious population that continues to move forward to the future.  As the Ghanaian government encourages more local native businesses are taking hold.  Because of the passage of Act 734 in 2007 which is a 3% VAT Flat Tax Scheme, retailers are allowed to charge the marginal sales tax for goods. This translates into a great advantage for visitors and travelers to experience all that Ghana has to offer and very low prices. 

The advent of a growing tourism industry has fostered keen interest in Ghana and as many Europeans, Americans and other seasoned globe trekkers have discovered, there is so much to discover. Located on the Gulf of Guinea and just a little above the Equator, Ghana offers a warm climate and a wide variety of environments. The white sandy shores are prized as some of the best and still mostly untouched beaches in the world.  With almost every kind of terrain from the low hilly country sides to flat planes and dense rain forests, this is a land of beautiful sights, historical landmarks and surprises around every corner. 

Home to the world’s largest artificial lake, Lake Volta, Ghana is one of the few treasures left where travelers can still experience remote scenic bliss and then turn around and hit the hottest cosmopolitan clubs this side of New York City.  Vacationers have a multitude of choices; they can frolic on the pristine white sandy beaches, walk on a suspension bridge hung high above a rainforest canopy or seek out its rich history and architecture influenced by the Portuguese, English and Dutch.  The collection of buildings and their residual stylistic inspirations continue to touch aspects of many contemporary edifices that scrape the West African skies. 

Taking an all inclusive guided tour is perhaps the best way to see the country.  The ultimate in escapist travel, these pampered excursions offer those seeking total relaxation and entertainment by having all your travel arrangements from flights, ground transport, accommodations and sight itinerary reserved well in advance.  For example a 10-day, all inclusive travel and tour of Ghana obtainable through Tours of Ghana (www.adomghanatravelandtours.com),  will ease the tension of traveling to an unknown country by providing your full travel package, lunch and dinner, exciting visits to known and off the beaten track adventures full of breathtaking sights, serene exotic environments, legendary locations, mouth watering food and infused with the spirit of a people that have broken the chains of confinement to fully embrace the sheer joy of freedom.  The land is rich in the positive aspect of what the future will bring and it’s an infectious feeling that will last you a lifetime. 

Conducted by English speaking professional guide and tour company owner E Alex Amponsah, a native Ghanaian living in the United States, leads his travelers through a very personal journey giving his group a vision of West Africa few outsiders have experienced.  From the moment you step off the plane you will be shepherded through 10 glorious days and 9 stellar nights of all the wonders, flavors and thrills that is Ghana.
