Cultural Tours

West Africa offers an abundance of non-safari tour options for travelers who like to dig into the history, culture, art, architecture, food, and music of the countries they visit. With several UNESCO World Heritage sites across West Africa that preserve the history of slavery and colonialism, West Africa is a natural destination for vacationers, students, historians, and researchers alike.

At Uprise, we strive to go beyond the big cultural tourist sites to provide authentic, immersive experiences that allow our guests to experience a new place to its fullest.
