On Sunday, March 3, over 200 enthusiastic ‘Caravanites’ embarked on the highly-anticipated Citi FM/Citi TV Heritage Caravan 2024, a transformative journey spanning 8 days to explore 14 regions.
The first day, coined ‘Ghana Tourism Day,’ will take the ‘Caravanites’ through the Volta Region.
Their itinerary includes a visit to Agotime Kpetoe, where they will participate in a vibrant Kente Durbar and indulge in Totokpakpa at the Volta Food Bazaar.
The day will conclude with a visit to the Volta Serene Hotel in Ho, where a lavish dinner awaits, accompanied by electrifying music from the Nkyinkyim Band.
Day 2, themed ‘Belpak and Beverages Day’ on Monday, March 4, 2024, will see the ‘Caravanites’ transition from the Volta Region to the Eastern Region.
After breakfast at the Volta Serene Hotel, they will journey to the Rock City Hotel in the Eastern Region.
A noteworthy stopover includes a lunch at the residence of the Eastern Regional Minister, complemented by an afternoon of music by the Legon Palmwine Band.
As evening approaches, the ‘Caravanites’ will depart from the Minister’s residence in Koforidua, making their way to the Rock City Hotel at Abetifi. The night promises entertainment at the Night Club with the vibrant beats of ‘Experience DJ Mingle.’
