Drumming and Dancing Tour for Students, Family and Friends
Come and experience African drumming and dancing at its finest. Ghana is well known for its music, and the dancing that accompanies it. Participate in these wonderful arts that have been performed for centuries. Learn how villages use “talking drums” to communicate within the village and between different villages—a technique that is still in use today. Learn some traditional songs, history and dance performed at outdoorings, weddings, funerals, festivals, and other celebrations. Join OGVO Drumming and Dancing Trips and experience the excitement of exploring a few of Africa’s undiscovered jewels! Witness an African hippo on a river safari, see a large collection of butterflies, and catch an African elephant herd passing right in front of you! Get the chance to sit on an African crocodile at Paga—if you dare! Gain wonderful and amazing experiences by diving into Ghana’s culture, ecology, and history. A Drumming and Dancing trip is ideal for university students, alumni groups, religious groups, fraternities and sororities, friends, families, or community service groups—in short, everyone!
