    Meet original makers crafting traditional Ashanti stools and weaving colourful fabrics. Learn the art of polite, good-humored haggling so you can secure beautiful Kente cloth, glass beads, or Bolgatanga grass baskets at local prices.

Sit down for a complimentary tasting of premium Ghanaian artisanal chocolate and local herbal tea to recharge.
