Country highlights
We specialise in organising single country and combination tours to Ghana, Togo and Benin. When desired, we can include Burkina Faso and even Mali within our combination tours.
We invite you to read about the highlights of the various destinations and the examples of possible tours (coming soon) you could undertake. Ghana also has many interesting eco-tourism projects to offer. Get inspired by viewing the photo albums of the various destinations.
The region in general
The West-African country tours we offer bundle a rich variety of activities and sights. Worthwhile to visit are the historical castles and forts from colonial times along the coast.
Experience 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 located in villages throughout the region are also a ‘must see’.
Combine the busy nightlife in the capitals with the idyllic palm lined 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. Witness the hippos 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 is its variety of people and culture. Travelling with Jolinaiko means meeting West Africa. Meet the people at the crowded, colourful markets and on the vibrant streets.
Observe the wisdom of the villagers in 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. Help a local lady pounding fufu for a delicious supper.
