27th Annual Sankɔfa Journey to ghana and burkina faso

Return, Reclaim, Reconnect.

Why the Sankɔfa Journey is Voted the Best Cultural Reconnection Immersion Experience to Ghana and Burkina Faso for Black Travelers

I’ve been following the Kambons for years

I’ve been following Mama Mawiyah, Nana Kwame, Baba Kamau Kambon, and the Kambon family for years. Being on this journey was better than anything I could ever have dreamed of. I felt like I was home with family. They know everybody, and everybody knows them so the whole trip was so personal and blacknificent. This changed my life. I came by myself but next time I’m bringing my whole family.

I’ve been on the Sankofa Journey 11 different times

I’ve been on the Sankofa Journey 11 times. I feel like myself when in Ghana and on the Journey. When I come back to Baltimore, I feel the weight of what I left behind—but also the fire to keep pushing forward. My reset happens every year on the journey, every year it’s different, and every time, it changes me to make me a better man and a better African.

I accidently signed up and…

I’ve been to Ghana three times. My second time going to Ghana, I accidentally signed up for another tour using the same name as the Sankofa Journey. It was nice, but this year I finally came on the real Sankofa Journey. I should have come here with the Kambons the first time. This was undeniably the best life-changing experience I could have.

About Sankɔfa Journey

Interacting with the people of Ghana and Burkina Faso. Be prepared for a multitude of BlackNificent experiences as you come to interact and know your family on the other side of the waters as well as your facilitators. Nana Efia Nsia Asantewaa (Mawiyah Kambon) has been back and forth to Ghana since 1972.

Nana Kwame (Obadele Kambon) moved to Ghana in 2008 and is now a citizen. Thus we will introduce you to our friends and family here in Ghana who will assist in making your Sankɔfa Journey MOST BlackTastic! No one can or will give it to you straight like Afrikans who have repatriated and now permanently live in Ghana. We invite such Afrikans to talk to Sankɔfa Sojourners about the realities of repatriation, investment, day-to-day life and more.
