Worth agreeing on before you meet

Respect Ashanti Royalty

The Ashanti Kingdom is a living institution. The Asantehene (king) is a figure of real power and respect. References to the Golden Stool or royal customs should be made with reverence. Never sit on someone else's stool.

Dress for Respect

Kumasi is more conservative than Accra, so dress modestly when visiting the palace, villages, and cultural sites. Covering shoulders and knees shows respect. Many Ghanaians dress beautifully and take pride in appearance.

Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Kumasi travel guide.
