Citi 97.3 FM and Citi TV‘s 4th edition of the Heritage Caravan, is scheduled to take place from March 2, 2019, to March 9, 2019.
The caravan is an initiative which takes participants around the beautiful regions of Ghana as part of events marking Ghana’s independence anniversary in the month of March.
This year, the tour will start from the Greater Accra Region, and continue to the Volta Region, Ashanti Region, Northern Region, Upper East Region, Eastern Region, Brong Ahafo, Western and the Central Region.
All this will be done in 8 days.
The heritage caravan started in March 2016 as part of the station’s Heritage Month in the month of March.
Since its inception in 2016, the caravan has been to all regions of the country, visiting tour sites like the Mole National Park, the Military Museum in Ashanti Region, the Slave Memorial at Assin Manso, Elmina Castle, the Larabanga Mosque – one of Ghana’s architectural masterpieces, the village on stilts, Nzulezu and the crocodile pond at Paga among others.
This year’s heritage Caravan promises to be more exhilarating as compared to the previous editions.
This is because this year’s Caravan will visit some interesting tourist sites in Ghana as well as experience some rich culture through durbars.
One of such is the Kakum National Park; a reserve which protects an area of rainforest, home to endangered mammals such as forest elephants, bongo antelopes and primates like the Diana monkey.
The park is rich in butterflies and birds, including African grey parrots and hornbills. The Canopy Walkway, suspended 30 meters above the ground, provides treetop views of the forest.
Aside from the education, exploration and adventure anticipated for this year’s road trip, patrons will also be thrilled with a lineup of amazing activities like a Bonfire Night, Boboobo display, a mini durbar with lots of local dishes and drinks.
This year’s Heritage Caravan will also see the involvement of Diasporan descendants of Africa.
This is in relation to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s declaration of the “Year of Return”.
Interested participants are expected to pay an affordable fee of GhC2,500.
This discounted fee covers, transportation, accommodation, breakfast, dinner, tour site fees and all special activities.
