Ghana

With 12 of the 15 West African Upper Guinea endemic species occurring in Ghana and a total avifauna of over 755 species of birds plus a good variety of mammals and an absolutely amazing butterfly fauna, Ghana is a must visit destination for any birding and nature enthusiast. With birds such as the White-necked (Yellow-headed) Picathartes and the Egyptian Plover amongst its avifauna it is not difficult to see why it is fast becoming a popular destination amongst birders.

Ghana Tours

Location : Ghana

This 15 day bird & wildlife tour visits Ghana, a West African country has only recently become popular with birders. It is one of the easiest places to see the rare White-necked Picathartes, and has a supporting case of a good number of Upper Guinea endemics.

While most of the birding will be in the bird rich forest areas of the south, we do visit other habitats including savanna grasslands and wetland areas for water birds. This itinerary also covers the northern dry areas including the Egyptian Plover site and the southern forest, but a shorter tour which concentrates on the south part of the country including the Picathartes only can be arranged if required.
