9 Absolute BEST Things to Do in Tamale, Ghana - Ultimate Visitor's Guide

Tamale is the capital of Ghana's Northern Region and its 3rd largest city. You can bet there's a lot of cool stuff to do here.

All of these things are within Tamale itself. You could easily fit 2-3 of them in a single day.

The things to do on this list aren't obvious. There aren't flashing signs or marked locations on Google Maps (with a few exceptions). Except for the Top 4, many of these are things that you need a local to help you find. My friend, and guide, Abdullah can arrange custom tours for any size group with any combination of interests.

Tamale is a place where culture and creativity thrive. People make beautiful things, they go about life in a way that's different than what people are used to in the US, and they are quick to kindness.
