Whether you’re on a layover, spending your first day in Ghana, or just want the city decoded fast, this guided half-day hits the four landmarks that matter, skips the guesswork, and ends with a sit-down Ghanaian lunch.

Want to go deeper?

Four hours is best spent on four landmarks — done properly, not rushed. If you’d like to add the W.E.B. Du Bois Centre and the National Museum of Ghana, take the Accra Full-Day instead ($149.99, 7–8 hours, all six landmarks). Or turn it into a hands-on afternoon with a kente weaving class or a pottery & batik workshop — and explore beyond the capital with a full Ghana tour package.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the tour?

Four hours — an unhurried half-day covering four of Accra’s most important landmarks with real time at each, ending with a sit-down lunch.
