Ghana Travel and Vacation – Good to know

Visas are necessary for most travelers to enter Ghana. There is the option to apply for a visa online through the website of the Ghanaian embassy. Please note that no visa is available on arrival. Plan enough time for processing, and bring all required documents, such as flight tickets and proof of sufficient financial means.
The Kotoka International Airport (ACC) in Accra is the best airport to fly to Ghana. From here, you have access to many destinations in the country and can easily get to the capital. Keep in mind that international flights are often better equipped, while smaller airports only offer domestic flights and have fewer connections.
The local currency in Ghana is the Cedi (GHS). While some stores and larger hotels accept credit cards, it is advisable to bring enough cash. ATMs are available in larger cities, but they may be hard to find on off-road excursions into rural areas. Try to keep small amounts of money ready for local markets and transportation costs.
Vaccinations against hepatitis A, typhoid, and yellow fever are recommended for travel to Ghana. It is important to obtain sufficient travel insurance that covers medical emergencies. Especially in the off-road area, you should check the options for rapid repatriation in case of illness. Also, inform yourself about current health warnings and recommendations!
To drive independently in Ghana, you need a valid international driver's license. This should be carried together with your national driver's license. However, please note that traffic can be unorganized and off-road driving poses particular risks. Therefore, focus on car rentals that have experience in mountainous areas to travel more safely and comfortably.
In Ghana, you can easily buy a SIM card to be reachable on the go. Various providers like MTN and Vodafone have sales points at airports and in larger cities. To ensure that you get the best rates for data and calls, compare the offers. Remember to have your passport and possibly an address in Ghana ready to facilitate registration.
