Why visit

About Emo Tour & Guiding

Emo Tour & Guiding is a tour-guiding and excursion service based in Kpando, in the Volta Region of Ghana. It operates in connection with the Emo Foundation, an NGO, and Emo Guesthouse, and presents Kpando as the gateway to attractions of the North Volta Region. For visitors, its main value is practical: it arranges transportation and guiding rather than being a single site you turn up to visit.

The excursions it lists cover a wide spread of the region. These include Wli Waterfalls in the Agumatsa Wildlife Sanctuary, the Tafi Atome monkey sanctuary, Lake Volta boat trips and island hopping from Kpando Torkor, Mount Afadjato and Tagbo Falls, Amedzofe with Mount Gemi and Ote Falls, Logba Tota, Aflabo Falls at Leklebi, the Likpe Todome caves, and hikes in the Avatime hills. The range suggests a service suited to visitors who want several North Volta destinations organised around a Kpando base.

It also runs the Akpini Walk, a guided tour of Kpando township. The route covers the Akpini Chiefs Palace, old German colonial buildings, a Roman Catholic church and a mosque, the market, and a woodcarver. This is the operator's own township-focused offering, and it is the part of the programme that stays within Kpando itself.

Transport arrangements are part of the service. The operator works with transport partners for tuktuk trips around Kpando and for airport pick-up and transfers. It is linked to Emo Guesthouse, which offers rooms and breakfast, and to Wizzy's Emo Restaurant; guesthouse profit supports Emo Foundation scholarships.

The office address given is Kpomedine Street L389, Kpando Tsakpe Newtown, Kpando, in the Kpando Municipal District. Contact details listed are the website emofoundation.com, email [email protected], a Facebook page for Emo Guesthouse, and phone numbers 050 030 00 51 and 055 323 27 70 (MTN, WhatsApp). Prices, opening hours, tour durations, group sizes and booking conditions are not stated in the available material, so visitors should confirm these directly before planning.
