Visitors from Abroad
Tamale Youth Home Cultural Group has a long tradition of hosting students and other visitors from abroad. We offer workshops and individual teaching in drumming and dance. Our group members are very experienced teachers in drumming and dance. We invite visitors to join our daily rehearsals as well. We also arrange performances for visitors and always try to involve the audience in the dance.
In addition, we provide other services for visitors, including arranging accommodations, travel to Tamale, and tours in Northern Ghana. In September 2017 we started Tamale Cultural Tours which provide guided tours to many destinations. Please look up Tamale Cultural Tours on this homepage.
