An advocate for the black community and women’s suffrage, Du Bois spent much his life and career focused on Pan-Africanism and became an organizer of several Pan-African congresses leading the charge to free many African colonies from European control. While in Ghana, a country where he was a champion for independence, Du Bois, planned his final project, the Encyclopedia Africana. Styled similarly to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the proposed Encyclopedia Africana was an ambitious undertaking that Du Bois hoped would connect the entire African diaspora. Although Du Bois died in 1963 without completing Encyclopedia Africana, his contributions to the African American experience as a historian, civil rights activist, writer, sociologist and intellectual are vast. The Museum celebrates the influential life he lived, his activism and the scholarly works that continue to serve as essential references regarding racism in America.

5 Stars!!!

Ebenesa was a brilliantly knowledgable tour guide. He speaks great English and has deep knowledge of Ghana and it's history. We didn't want a surface level tour and wanted to learn the real history of colonialism, the slave trade and more. The best part of the tour was not the locations he took us to but his knowledge, point of view and conversations had while driving us to locations. We would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone visiting Ghana! Don't just go to all the typical tourist spots, go with someone who can teach you about them.

Amazing!

This was really well worth the money! Eben picked me up from my hotel at 9 am and dropped me back off at 5 pm. The tour was thorough, amazingly in depth, and insightful. I also felt completely safe as a solo woman traveler. After this tour, I ended up booking Eben for two more things while I was in Ghana and they didn’t disappoint either.

Outstanding Service, Knowledge and Hospitality

Our experience with Eben was exceptional from start to finish. What sets him apart from many tour guides is that the tour begins the moment you step into the car, not just when you arrive at the first attraction. He welcomed us warmly, walked us through our itinerary for the day and shared fascinating insights and previews of what to expect at each destination, making the journey itself just as engaging as the sites we visited. Eben was professional, knowledgeable, incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the day. He also has some talent for photography and captured beautiful moments for us that we’ll treasure. If you’re looking for a guide who goes above and beyond to create a memorable experience, Eben is just that tour guide. We will absolutely book him again anytime we’re in town. Highly recommended!!
