Trip to Assin Manso, Kakum and Elmina

Pick up from Accra Mall at 6am for an unforgettable journey to the Central region of Ghana. Our
first stop will be Assin Manso, a historically significant site in Ghana. Here, the remains of two
former slaves, Samuel Carson from the USA and Crystal from Jamaica were re-interred during
Ghana’s first Emancipation Day celebration in August 1998. Assin Manso serves as the final link
in the slavery route from Northern Ghana, and it was the largest slave market for merchants
supplying slaves to the forts and castles along the coast. The river here played a significant role
in cleansing the captured Africans before they were confined the slave castles and shipped to the
Americas and the Carribean.
