Tailor-Made Tours
Eco Volta Adventure
Whether it is conquering the heights of Mount Afadjato, the highest mountain in Ghana; viewing the verdant terrain below or swimming in the sparkling stream and viewing the breathtaking Wli Waterfall cascading from above, Ghana has got the eco bite! Your Eco Volta tour will take you to Kakum National Park, the most noted rainforest in West Africa. Experience the spectacular views of the rainforest as you cross the 100 feet high canopy walkway. This walkway is one of only five of its kind in the world. The park is a prime location to view birds such as the African hornbill.
 In 1993 a butterfly hitherto unknown to the world of science was discovered at the park. As you travel north you will be delighted by a festival of butterflies at Bobiri Butterfly sanctuary, so have your cameras ready to capture this exciting scene.
