Departure
Enter the heart of one of Africa’s greatest kingdoms. The Ashanti Kingdom of Ghana is a living royal culture — its king still reigns, its traditions still pulse through daily life, and its gold and kente cloth remain symbols of power and identity across the African world. Kumasi, the Ashanti capital, is a city of markets, palaces, and craft villages where ancient skills are passed from generation to generation.
This 8-day journey takes you inside the Ashanti world — the Manhyia Palace, seat of the Asantehene; the kente weaving village of Bonwire; the vast Kejetia Market; the sacred meteor crater lake of Bosomtwe; and the gold and craft traditions that made the Ashanti legendary. Verified local Ambassadors guide every step.
The Ashanti are one of the most powerful kingdoms in African history — renowned for their gold, their kente cloth, their military prowess, and a royal tradition that continues to this day.
