Our destinations
Our main destinations are Ghana, Togo and Benin. We can organize a single country tour and of course combination tours are also possible. Since 2007, we include Burkina Faso and occasionally Mali within our combination tours.
Read about the highlights of the various destinations, the examples of possible tours you could undertake, the many interesting eco-tourism projects that Ghana has to offer, and get inspired by watching the pictures of the various destinations in the photo albums.
The region in general
The West-African countries we offer, bundle a rich variety of activities and sights. Worth to visit are the colonial and memorial history of castles and forts along the coast
, the richness of the various ethnic cultures throughout the region, including the Voodoo culture in Benin. The Sahelian-style mud-and-pole architecture in the sub-Saharan and semi-desert and the humble thatched huts in villages throughout the region are also a must see. Combine the busy nightlife in the capitals with the idyllic palmlined beaches or adventurous biking or hiking through the thick tropical forest with waterfalls for refreshing showers. Watch elephants gather around waterholes in the National Nature reserves or see the hippo's and many species of birds during a canoe trip through the well preserved habitat along the banks of the rivers and mangrove forests.
Get under the surface with Jolinaiko
The main interest of West Africa however, is its variety of people and culture. Travelling with Jolinaiko is meeting Africa, meeting the people on the crowded, colourful markets and the vibrancy on the streets,
the wisdom of the people in the remote areas where life goes on as it has for centuries. Feel your muscles after dancing or drumming with ethnic groups, elegantly dressed in their traditional embroidered grand boubou or help a local lady pounding fufu for a delicious supper.
Jolinaiko Eco Tours can be your key to get under the surface, to understand what the region is really about and start seeing West Africa through West African eyes.
