Introduction: This a real insight into West Africa. Explore the slave forts and castles on the Slave Coast, walk though the tree tops on the canopy walk in the rainforest of Kakum National Park, and journey through the sands of the Sahara with the Tuareg. See animals on a guided walk in Mole National Park, and discover the amazing world of the Dogon People in Mali. Enjoy chilled out days on the boat trip to Timbuktu, and marvel at the frenetic dancing of the local cultural group on the beach in Ghana. This tour gives you a true taste of the complexity and friendliness of West African and its people. It is a tour of great diversity, taking you from the sand dunes of the Sahara to the beaches on the Atlantic coast.
