Who are we?
Jolinaiko Eco Tours is a Ghana-based travel agency offering personally tailored guided tours to Ghana, Togo, Benin and Burkina Faso. We also have related services available such as car rental and volunteering projects.
Jolinaiko Eco Tours was started in 1999 by Apollo Panou. It was, and remains, his wish to share his interest, curiosity and pride in his beautiful region with others.
Our mission: to let visitors experience the real Africa
We encourage our visitors to fully experience West Africa and understand what it is really about. Our mission is to bring our visitors into close contact with the local people and their lifestyle in order to give them both the opportunity to learn from each other in a friendly, respectful way. Our tourism and volunteering activities are therefore small scale and personal, with respect for local lifestyle and traditions.
We are proud of our country, culture and people. We strive to contribute to local communities with our tourism, volunteering and community activities in the twin villages of Atsiekpoe-Vume in Ghana’s Volta Region. We hope to expand this contribution even more in the future by realising our own community-based project: the Jolinaiko Eco Village.
Flexibility and reasonable prices
Jolinaiko Eco Tours is an extremely flexible travel agency. Our travellers have their own say in the way they want to travel, which countries they want to visit and what they want to experience in the way of cultural heritage, nature and wild life, music and dancing etc. Each tour is based on the visitor’s personal interests, background and budget.
Jolinaiko Eco Tours has reasonable prices. We offer tours to suit any budget, but our specialty lies in organising low- and moderate-budget travelling. We can organise low budget tours with public transport – using “trotro” (local buses), comfortable public bus companies or one of the periodic ferries across the vast Volta lake – all combined with simple yet adequate accommodation.
For those of you looking for more comfortable travel means, we can arrange tours with our own Landrover Defenders or other (air-conditioned) saloon cars, four-wheel drive vehicles or vans. And, to suit a more discerning traveller, we can book your stay in more comfortable hotels. The choice is completely up to you. Best of all, we make it possible for you to adjust the travel standards at anytime during your trip.
