Photo albums | Volta Region - Xofa village and the Volta Lake ( 22 images)

Xofa village is a beautiful eco village run by a friendly Rastafarian on the shores of the Volta Lake. The founders are very active in the reforestation of the area with mainly fruit trees. Accommodation is provided in basic but tidy huts. You can take a canoe trip to some of the small islands in the Volta Lake and to the various villages on the shore line.

I travelled with Apollo for two weeks throughout Ghana, Togo, and Benin. I had the freedom to go where I wanted, when I wanted, as fast as I wanted, and change plans daily, all with the security of a knowledgeable guide.

Through Apollo’s professionalism, excellent conversation, courtesy, open mindedness, tolerance and enthusiasm I was able to learn and live Africa more so than many of my other trips combined. Africa is no longer a distant place on a map, or a show on T.V. but many faces, smiles, songs, smells, colors and friends to me. Travel needs to be experienced in this way.

The world needs more Apollo’s to bring us all a little closer together, understand each other better, break barriers and live and breathe a country that is not our own. Thank you for the fantastic memories, daily experiences, conversation, trust, comfort, laughs and friendship.

Can’t think of anything I would have changed.
