Let's go.
Y3nko means “let's go” in Twi. We're building the easiest way to plan a trip to Ghana, whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth: the nights out, the rooms and the tables, all in one plan you share with the people coming with you.
Ghana trips are planned in DMs.
Today a trip to Ghana gets pieced together across Instagram DMs, WhatsApp groups and a friend who knows a guy. The festival, the guesthouse, the restaurant big enough for twenty: none of it lives in one place, and the people planning it are often thousands of miles away.
Y3NKO puts events, stays and restaurants side by side as equals, starting with the Accra neighbourhoods visitors head for first: East Legon, Osu, Cantonments, Airport Residential, Labone and Ridge.
Find it, plan it, book it with them.
Built by a family.
Y3NKO is a family business, built by Ghanaian-Americans who grew up between two homes. We know the December group chats and the scramble to sort a venue or a table from abroad, because we've been in them. We built Y3NKO for anyone making that trip, whether Ghana is home or somewhere you've always wanted to see. We're small and early, and we're building carefully, one host at a time.
Run a place guests should know about?
If you run a stay, a restaurant, tours or events in Accra, your page on Y3NKO is free. If we've already listed you, claim the page and keep it up to date. If not, ask us to add you.
No open roles, but say hello.
We aren't hiring right now. If you care about Ghana's hospitality scene and want to help, write to contact@y3nko.travel and tell us what you'd bring. We read everything.
Writing about Ghana?
We're happy to talk to journalists and creators covering Ghana, travel and the diaspora. Email contact@y3nko.travel with “Press” in the subject and we'll get back to you.
Y3nko.
December is closer than it looks. Start the plan and bring everyone in.
