Your Ghana trip from the UAE, planned by a team on the ground

Emirates flies nonstop from Dubai to Accra, and travellers in Abu Dhabi can usually connect on Etihad. Ghana Travel & Tour plans the rest for two kinds of trip: business visits that use Dubai as a bridge to Ghana, and family journeys home for Ghanaians working in the UAE. We arrange visa support, verified hotels, meetings and airport pickup, with a driver who waits inside arrivals at Kotoka.

Nonstop from Dubai, connecting from Abu Dhabi

Emirates flies nonstop from Dubai International (DXB) to Kotoka International in Accra, often daily, which makes it one of the simplest links between the Gulf and West Africa. Schedules and fares move, so treat any timing you read online as provisional until the airline confirms it. Travellers based in Abu Dhabi usually reach Accra from Abu Dhabi International (AUH) on Etihad, and that routing can run through Etihad's own network or through Dubai. Ask us to compare the options for your dates, because the shortest total journey is not always the one that suits your schedule or your budget.

Once a flight is booked, we handle the rest of the trip. Payment is by Visa, Mastercard, PayPal or Mobile Money, and every booking comes with an itemised breakdown and a written confirmation. Ghana currently requires a yellow fever certificate for entry, and visa rules for UAE residents change, so we reserve visa support only after checking the current position with the Ghana Immigration Service or the nearest Ghana embassy. On arrival, our driver meets you inside arrivals at Kotoka, and the pickup is free if they are not there. Airport fast-track and meeting logistics can be arranged where they are available. Before payment, we also check that the name on your passport matches the name on the ticket, so a small mismatch does not stop you at check-in. You can see how we book flights on our flights page.

For business, investment & the Ghanaian community in the UAE

Dubai is the main trade bridge between the Gulf and Ghana, and many Ghanaian traders source goods there before taking them home. We plan the Ghana side of that work: meetings in Accra and Kasoa, verified hotels, a car with a driver for site visits, and a written itinerary you can share with partners before you leave. For company travel, every invoice is itemised so your accounts team can match it to the trip. We cannot promise the outcome of a deal, but we can make sure the logistics around it do not slow it down. If a visit includes a factory or farm, tell us early so the driver can plan the route and the working hours around it.

Ghanaians living and working in Dubai and Abu Dhabi travel home often, usually for a funeral, a wedding or a child's outdooring, and the dates are rarely flexible once the family has fixed them. We can book the flight, a furnished home near Kasoa or a verified hotel, and a driver who takes relatives from Kotoka to the house. Kasoa is about an hour west of Accra, so we plan the transfer around the timing of the event. Our Monday to Saturday hours run from 12:00 to 23:00 in Dubai, which covers the afternoon and evening after most working days, so you can get answers without leaving your shift.

What you’ll actually see — planned around real roads

Fifteen private, guided tours: the castles at Cape Coast and Elmina, the Kakum canopy walk at its quiet morning best, Kumasi and the Ashanti heartland, the Mole elephants in the north, and the waterfalls of the Volta. Each one comes with a licensed guide, entry fees and meals, planned around honest drive times and the heat.

We’ll tell you plainly what fits in a day and what doesn’t, so you spend the trip seeing Ghana rather than sitting in a vehicle. See the full set on our tours page.

Where you’ll stay & how you’ll get around

Choose a verified hotel, or a fully furnished 3, 4 or 5‑bedroom private home in a gated compound near Kasoa — safer than a hotel for a family or church group, with housekeeping, backup power, Wi‑Fi and security. On the ground, we arrange airport pickup and car rental with or without a driver, so you’re never bargaining with a stranger after a long flight.

A sample week, the way we’d run it

A typical trip from the UAE follows the same sequence, from the first enquiry to the return flight, and each step is confirmed in writing.

1

Arrive at Kotoka

Met inside arrivals, SIM and cold water in the car, driven to your home or hotel.

2–3

Cape Coast & Kakum

The castles at Cape Coast and Elmina, then the Kakum canopy walk at its quiet best.

4

Accra at your pace

Markets, Jamestown, Independence Square and the museums, planned around the traffic.

5–6

Kumasi & the Ashanti heartland

Manhyia Palace, Kejetia market and the kente villages, with a night in Kumasi.

7

Rest, beach or fly home

A slow last day on the coast, or an early run to the airport — your driver handles it.

When to visit Ghana

Ghana’s year turns on rain, not cold. The month you pick changes crowds, price and the roads up north more than the temperature.

Nov–Mar · dry season

The most popular window. December is festive but busy; the north can be dusty in harmattan.

Apr–Jun · first rains

Greener, quieter and cheaper. Showers are short but roads in the north get harder.

Jul–Aug · dry spell

A calmer break in the south, good for the coast and the castles.

Sep–Nov · second rains

Fewer crowds; we plan around the wetter days and keep the north flexible.

Investing, building or moving to Ghana

Many people in the UAE look at Ghana for property, a business or a plot of land, and some of those plans work well. The ones that lose money usually skipped a basic check, most often the land title, so resist any pressure to pay before the paperwork is clear. Commission a Ghanaian lawyer to search the title, and confirm the plot with the Lands Commission before any deposit. Our guide to buying land in Ghana safely sets out the checks in order. We provide travel and site-visit logistics, not legal advice, so the title search itself must come from a qualified professional.

If you plan to register a company, the steps usually start with the Registrar General's Department, and bank accounts often follow. Plan the trip around those appointments rather than the other way round, and allow spare days in case a document takes longer than expected. We can arrange meetings, a driver and verified hotels for each stage, and we will check current requirements with you before you travel.

Business & trade visitors

Traders and procurement teams visiting Accra or Kasoa for a few days. We book hotels close to the meetings, arrange a driver for each appointment, and keep a written and itemised record that helps with expenses when you return to Dubai. You get one point of contact for the whole trip, so changes go to one person rather than several.

Companies operating in Ghana

Firms with staff, suppliers or a project in Ghana that need dependable travel for people moving in and out. We handle flights, verified hotels, furnished homes for longer stays, and airport fast-track on arrival where it is available. For repeat staff travel, we can keep the same hotel and driver on each visit, so your team knows what to expect.

Ghanaians working in the UAE

Dubai and Abu Dhabi residents going home for a family event or a few weeks of leave. We find a home or hotel that suits the family, meet you at Kotoka, and coordinate the transport you need on the days that matter most. If relatives are spread across Accra and Kasoa, we plan the route so the schedule holds.

Investors & returnees

People buying land or property, or moving back to Ghana for good. A relocation concierge can help with the practical first weeks while you decide where to settle, and a furnished home lets you test an area before you commit. We also keep the costs of each stage itemised, so you can see what each step cost as you go.

Questions, answered honestly

What is the easiest way to fly to Ghana from the UAE?

From Dubai, Emirates flies nonstop to Kotoka International in Accra, often daily, which is usually the simplest option for most trips. From Abu Dhabi, Etihad can connect you, often through Dubai. Schedules and fares change, so check the current timetable with the airline, and ask us to compare the routings that fit your dates and your budget.

Do I need a visa for Ghana if I live in the UAE?

Many UAE residents, particularly those on non-African passports, currently need a visa for Ghana. The answer depends on your nationality and passport, so confirm your position with the Ghana Immigration Service or the nearest Ghana embassy before you book. We can prepare visa support alongside your flight, but we cannot guarantee the outcome of any application, because the decision rests with the immigration authorities.

Do I need a yellow fever certificate?

Yes. Ghana currently requires a yellow fever certificate for entry, so carry a valid certificate with your passport when you fly. Check the requirement and any exemptions with the Ghana Immigration Service or your nearest Ghana embassy before travel, because rules can change. If you are not sure your vaccination record will be accepted, ask a travel clinic in the UAE before you leave.

Can you arrange airport pickup and a driver at Kotoka?

Yes. Our driver meets you inside arrivals at Kotoka International in Accra, and the pickup is free if they are not there. We can also arrange a car with a driver for the length of your stay, transfers to Kasoa, which is about an hour west of Accra depending on traffic, and guided tours. Our arrivals desk runs 24/7, so a delayed flight or a change after landing can still be handled.

When is the best time to travel to Ghana from the UAE?

Ghana's weather varies by region and by month. Kasoa generally has a longer rainy season in the middle of the year and a shorter one in autumn, so check the month before you set dates. Many UAE residents travel around school holidays or a family event, which often fixes the dates. For business, we suggest leaving a day or two between your last meeting and your flight, so a delay does not cost you an appointment.

How can I pay from the UAE?

You can pay by Visa, Mastercard or PayPal. Mobile Money is also accepted, but it needs a Ghanaian wallet, so a card or PayPal is usually easier for UAE-based clients. Every payment is itemised, and you receive a written confirmation for each booking. If a comparable booking is cheaper elsewhere, we match the price, so ask us to check before you pay anyone else.

Is Ghana safe to visit?

Ghana is generally stable, and most visits pass without incident. Like any destination, it has situations that need care, such as travelling at night, crowded markets and unfamiliar roads. Check your government's current travel advice before you go, and use a booked driver for airport transfers and longer journeys. We can keep one driver on call for the whole trip, which is often the simplest way to avoid unfamiliar transport.

Can you help plan a funeral, wedding or outdooring trip?

Yes. We book the flight, a furnished home or a verified hotel near the family, and a driver who can take relatives to the event on the day. For a funeral, we can coordinate travel around the family's timing, and for a wedding or outdooring we can plan the stay around the programme. We do not organise the ceremony itself, but we keep the travel side in order, so you can focus on your family.

Can you help with company setup, investment or land?

We handle the travel side of these steps, including meetings, hotels, drivers and site visits. Company registration runs through the Registrar General's Department, and land must be checked by a Ghanaian lawyer and confirmed with the Lands Commission before any payment. We are not a law firm and do not give legal or financial advice, so use qualified professionals for those steps and let us build the travel around them.

How quickly will you reply, and what time zone are you in?

Ghana is on GMT all year, which is four hours behind the UAE. We answer during office hours, Monday to Saturday from 8:00 to 19:00 GMT, which is 12:00 to 23:00 in Dubai. Message us on WhatsApp at +233 24 915 1503 or email support@ghanatravelandtour.com. A message sent at 18:00 in Dubai reaches us at 14:00 in Accra, and our arrivals desk runs 24/7 for anything that happens at the airport.
