Tribal and Cultural Considerations When Travelling Around Kumasi
Kumasi is culturally diverse, with residents and visitors from different ethnic and regional backgrounds. When arranging a pickup, delivery or meeting, use the exact street, business name and nearby landmark rather than relying on assumptions about someone’s background.
This is particularly useful around busy markets and commercial areas where several roads and landmarks can be close together.
