Descrição
Discover the vibrant Makola Market in Accra on a guided tour. Taste local snacks, meet the "Market Queens," and take home a souvenir.
Begin your journey with a private chauffeur pickup from your stay in Central Accra. As you approach the city center, feel the energy in the air. Makola Market is a lively place where you'll find everything from rare glass beads and colorful African wax prints to fresh land snails and car parts.
Guided through the vibrant chaos, learn about the market's history, from its start in 1924 to its resilient rebuilding after 1979. Stop for three snacks included in the tour, such as Kelewele (spicy fried plantains), Tiger Nuts, or Peanut Brittle.
For those seeking more adventure, there’s a taste of Bourdain’s Favorites: condensed milk toffee and a sip of Akpeteshie. The tour ends with a visit to a bead artisan, where you’ll receive a free souvenir, followed by an optional traditional lunch at a local chop bar.
