Ghana by car


Ghana by car

The border at Aflao with Togo is an entertaining scene. It appears very disorderly and human traffic seems to flow freely. However it is unlikely that a caucasian person can pass through without all the formalities. The process of filling out forms and checking visas can take quite a while for non-diplomats. Soldiers on the Togo side are likely to ask for a bribe but need not be paid if all of your documents are in order. Border officials on the Ghanaian side in contrast are much more difficult to bribe. A visa into Ghana can be bought at the border at double the normal cost (because of the speedy delivery) for some GH₵110. One thing to keep in mind while at the border crossings is to keep your cameras stowed in your packs, taking pictures while at the border crossings is very discouraged. Additionally, both Ghanian and Togolese border guards are sure to take your camera if they spot you snapping a photo or at the least chide you. The border with Cote d'Ivoire at Elubo takes less time to cross but Ivorian guards seem much more keen on the rules.
