Visitors should dress modestly, remove shoes before entering, and present a small gift (like alcohol or money) as a sign of respect. Always ask permission before taking photos.

Trotros (shared taxis) do not have fixed schedules; they depart when full. Always confirm the fare before boarding, as prices are not fixed.

The rainy season (April-June) can make roads muddy and difficult to navigate. Festivals are more frequent during the dry seasons.

Try fufu with light soup, banku with tilapia, and kokonte with groundnut soup. Street food like kelewele (spicy fried plantains) is also popular.

The Ashanti people revere the Golden Stool, a symbol of unity. Avoid disrespectful comments about it. Libation pouring is a common ritual during ceremonies.

Eat at local chop bars (small eateries), use trotros instead of private taxis, and bargain at markets. Avoid touristy areas for shopping.

Always ask for permission before photographing people or sacred sites. Some ceremonies may prohibit photography altogether.

Indirect communication is preferred; avoid being overly blunt. Politeness and patience are valued in conversations.

Support local artisans by buying handmade crafts, avoid single-use plastics, and respect wildlife in natural reserves like Bobiri Forest.

Tipping is not mandatory but appreciated for good service. A small amount (5-10% in restaurants) is sufficient.
