The Limits of Standard Tours
The desire to connect with your African roots is a powerful, sacred calling. But the journey can feel overwhelming and filled with questions. Generic tours offer sightseeing, but they can’t offer soul-sight. They show you the monuments, but they fail to show you yourself.
A Quest for Your Personal Story
You are seeking more than just a vacation; you are on a quest for clarity, connection, and a deeper understanding of your own story. This is about piecing together your history and finding your place within a legacy that is rightfully yours.
A Journey of Profound Discovery
To succeed, you need a guide who understands that this journey is measured not in miles, but in moments. It is a path of profound self-discovery, where each experience is designed to create a lasting connection to your heritage.
Your Story, Your Journey. Co-Created, Never Pre-Packaged.
A Sankofa Journey is a homecoming designed for one person: you. We begin not with a map, but with a conversation. We start with your “why”—your hopes, your questions, your heritage.
From there, we co-create every element. Whether your spirit is drawn to the vibrant markets of West Africa, the ancient histories of the East, or a specific village your ancestors once called home, your itinerary is built from the ground up.

Your Path Home in Three Simple Steps
My name is Obehi Ewanfoh. With over a decade of experience and more than 1,000 in-depth interviews with members of the diaspora, I’ve dedicated my life to the power of our stories. I created Sankofa Journeys because I saw a profound need—not for more tourism, but for more meaningful connection. My purpose is to be the bridge between your longing and your legacy.

Empowerment Through Heritage
Sankofa offers a transformative journey into the heart of African culture, providing participants the opportunity to reconnect with their roots.

Bridging Cultures Through Exchange
At the core of Sankofa is cultural exchange, creating an immersive environment that brings African diasporans back to their ancestral lands while introducing others to the rich diversity of Africa.

The Power of Storytelling
Storytelling is central to the Sankofa experience, bringing the journey to life through the voices of history. Whether it’s exploring historic sites in countries like Ghana, Egypt, Nigeria, or South Africa.
