If you’ve lived in Ghana for a while, you’ve probably heard someone mention Mole National Park. Elephants walking past your lodge, sunsets over the savanna, and the peaceful rhythm of Ghana’s wild north. Yet, for many people, it remains one of those places they plan to visit “one day.”
So why haven’t you been to Mole yet? Let’s be honest, it’s not because you don’t want to go. It’s because getting there often feels complicated. But here’s the truth: it doesn’t have to be.
You think it’s too far
Yes, Mole National Park is in the Northern Region, about 12 hours from Accra by road. That sounds like a lot, until you realize the journey itself is part of the adventure.
As you travel north, Ghana slowly changes. The air feels lighter, the colours warmer, and the landscapes wider. Out of Accra there’s a whole different world. The drive is filled with moments that make you forget the hours. Laughter on the bus, music, and new friendships forming.
With a well-planned trip, it’s comfortable and full of life, not long and tiring. And when you finally see your first elephant walking by the waterhole at Mole, every kilometre will feel worth it.
You think it’s expensive
Many travellers assume that a safari must be a luxury experience. Private jeeps, fancy lodges, and high prices. But Mole offers something beautifully different. It’s wild, authentic, and much more affordable than you think.
Still, when you start looking into it on your own (renting a car, finding accommodation, arranging entrance fees and guides) the costs add up quickly. That’s exactly why we created our Safari Weekend: to make it easy, budget-friendly, and stress-free.
When you travel with Language Café Accra, everything is organized for you. Transport from Accra, comfortable accommodation, guided safaris, and stops at beautiful spots along the way. You get the full experience for a fair price, without having to plan every detail yourself.
You think it’s a trip for tourists
Mole isn’t just for international visitors. It’s for anyone who loves nature, wildlife, and Ghana’s rich diversity. And our trips are definitely not only for tourists. The north has a completely different energy from the south. It’s calm, friendly, and full of hidden beauty.
From the ancient Larabanga Mosque, one of West Africa’s oldest, to the wide-open views from Mole Motel’s poolside, there’s something deeply grounding about being there. It’s a reminder that Ghana’s beauty isn’t only in its beaches and cities.
You keep waiting for “the right time”
We all do this. We wait for a less busy weekend, for the right travel partner, or for a bit more money saved up. But the truth is, there’s never a perfect time. There’s just now.
December is the best time to go. The dry season makes it easier to spot wildlife, the evenings are cool, and the Farmer’s Day holiday (Friday, 5 December) gives you the perfect long weekend to travel.
If you’ve been saying, “One day, I’ll go to Mole,” this is that day.
You haven’t found the right group
Traveling long distances is always better with good company. Our Safari Weekend is not just about where we go. It’s about who you go with. It’s a small, friendly group where everyone is welcome. Whether you join solo or with friends, you’ll quickly feel part of something bigger.
By the time you’re watching elephants at sunset, you’ll be sharing the moment with people who started as strangers and ended up as travel companions. Maybe even friends.
So you might have not been to Mole yet because it seemed far, expensive, or complicated. But now, it’s simple: we’ve organized everything for you.
This 4–7 December, join us for a journey that’s full of wildlife, warmth, and wonder. Don’t let another year pass with Mole still on your list. Pack light, come curious, and let Ghana surprise you.
Mole is waiting: are you coming?
