Assin Manso Slave River was the final place where our ancestors took their last bath on African soil before being marched onward to the slave castles and dungeons, where they were held captive and prepared for shipment to the so-called New World. This deeply moving experience offers a unique opportunity to visit the slave castles, dungeons, and the sacred Slave River that formed part of the brutal system used to enslave Africans and send them into the unknown. More importantly, it gives us the chance to reconnect, reflect, and pay our respects to those who endured this inhumane enterprise with strength and resilience.
This tour is a powerful homecoming experience that reconnects and reunites you with your brothers and sisters. It is a journey filled with history, culture, and remembrance, offering a renewed sense of identity, belonging, and spiritual connection to the land and the people from whom you descend.
