Itinerary
Take an extensive guided tour of this UNESCO World Heritage Castle. You will discover on this tour aspects of the castles such as the male and female dungeons, condemn cells, "door of no return" among several others. Learn on this tour how enslaved Africans were kept in cells prior to their "shipment" across the Atlantic and inhumane punishments meted out to "recalcitrant" ones who fought whiles in incarceration or ladies who resisted rape by the governor or the soldiers.
Take a guided tour through the underground dungeons of this castle which remains the meanest of the slave castles. Visited by the Obamas in 2009 and Melania Trump in 2018, this former English castle from 1665 has a very interesting story to offer you.

About Accra
Accra, Ghana's capital on the Gulf of Guinea, mixes colonial forts, independence monuments, busy markets, beach bars and a famed music scene.
Accra lines the Atlantic coast, and its older districts keep the character of a trading port. In Jamestown, an old fishing quarter, a lighthouse stands beside Dutch and British forts, and boxing gyms spill onto the lanes. Black Star Square, with its Independence Arch, and the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park honour Ghana's first president and independence in 1957, while the W. E. B. Du Bois Centre remembers the writer who spent his final years here.
Top-ranked sights in Accra: Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and Memorial Park, W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Pan-African Culture, Makola Market.
