Through this expedition, Wanderlust Ghana aims to highlight Africa’s potential as a tourism and investment hub, sharing Ghana’s rich culture, vibrant history, and tourism potential with the world.
The team will travel across Cote d’Ivoire, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Spain, France, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Namibia, Angola, DRC, Congo, Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Togo and back to Ghana.
