TOUR TO BOLGATANGA AND SURROUNDINGS

ONE OR TWO DAYS

​

We go north to Bolga, historically the hub for trade and travelling. In Bolga you

will experience the market, the painted houses and the library designed by an

award-winning African American architect.

​

Outside Bolga we visit the Picworo slave camp and take a guided tour. The area

is very famous for the production of Bolga baskets, sold worldwide. In a village

where they are produced, the women who make them will introduce you to the

process.

​

We pass by or stop at several other places of interest, including Paga Crocodile

Pond, Novrongo with the interestingly decorated minor Catholic cathedral

and Sirigo, a scenic village with beautifully painted houses
