Hi guys,
My wife and I are heading to Ghana in January 2017 for 3 weeks. We are planning on doing some independent birding amongst other things. Our rough itinerary is to fly from Accra to Tamale, then 4 nights at Mole Motel in the park. Do you have any recommendations for guides or safaris at Mole?
After Mole, we'll take public transport down to Kumasi for a couple of days. While in Kumasi we might spend a few days checking out Owabi wildlife sanctuary and Lake Bosumtwi, before heading onto Kakum National Park for a few more days. Would be keen to camp within Kakum itself and explore the park. Again, any recommendations for guides?
Following Kakum we'll head down to Cape Coast, where we'll have 7 days in Busua surfing. In between the surfing we'd love to keep birding, so any tips for around this area? The Amansuri wetlands sound great. I've been reading the Bradt Ghana guide but would be grateful for any additional information or trip reports you could provide.
Thanks!
John
