Holiday in Ghana: What to Know | Indigenous Foreigner Show
Ghana has experienced a steep rise in foreign and domestic travel in recent years, peaking with The Year of Return campaign of 2019. After a period of travel unpredictability during the global coronavirus pandemic, the country is now as open as ever to travelers with a few new requirements.
In this episode we cover important things to know about traveling to Ghana and ask visitors what put the country on their radar. We also get to know some Ghanaians and understand how they experience the holidays.
