Praise for Africana
‘It is a glorious book: an education and an invitation. There is such life in its pages, and such food!’

"Leaf through Africana and you’ll be sticking Post-it notes everywhere … There isn’t a dish I don’t want to cook."
Diana Henry, the Saturday Telegraph~

"With careful attention and love on Africana Cookery Retreat, the variety of food prepared by Lerato and her team was scrumptious, and the accommodation was excellent, tucked in a secluded breathtaking location with awesome scenery. I highly recommend this cookery retreat to all. Go and explore the beauty that Africa has to offer."
Emily, from London
"Ghana, the food, the company all made for a great time. Everyone loved their gifts. They are asking about the food. They want me to cook some of your recipes. I loved that you chose such a beautiful and tranquil lodge. I loved the food! There wasn't anything I didn't like. The excursions gave me a good insight into the diversity of Ghana.”
Marilyn, from Bermuda
Our social & economic impact
Through our travels, we will endeavour to give back to our host country, by empowering local people from our tour guides, cooks, and drivers to local producers such as chocolate makers, shea butter producers, organic growers and all who we work with to provide you an enriching experience. A percentage of profits will be donated to a chosen charity after each trip. And time permitting, we will endeavour to visit an impactful social enterprise that is making a difference in the community.
