Top Kumasi Outdoor Activities

Travelers who value authentically relating to other cultures will enjoy the intimacy of this tour. Starting off at Kwame University, your guide will drive your party to Bonwire village where you can try your hand at weaving your very own. After this soothing time of craft, you will participate in an Akan naming ceremony, where the chief and leaders designate you with a traditional name of soul and family. Afterwards, you may leave with a certificate and a stronger understanding of the culture of Ghana.

A naming ceremony is a big part of Ghanaian culture and usually takes place within the first few days of birth. But for African-American and Caribbean diasporas, you can participate in a private naming ceremony with the Adawomase tribe in Kumasi. You receive a traditional name based on your date of birth while adorned in Ghanaian cloth and enjoy other cultural activities like visiting a cocoa farm and kente weaving workshop.
