Maps and navigation for getting around, curated for travelers visiting Ghana.
Google Maps is the best general map for place search, driving directions, saved locations and offline areas in Ghana. It works well for major roads and many urban businesses, but the pin may identify a property without showing the correct gate, lane or pickup side. Save the accommodation, airport terminal, bus office, attraction entrance and meeting point while connected. Send a driver both the pin and a written building name or recognizable landmark. Download the required map areas before leaving dependable Wi-Fi, remembering that offline mode loses live traffic, closures and some place information. GhanaPostGPS is a useful local companion rather than a replacement. It is the official digital-address system and can identify a precise five-metre square with a GhanaPostGPS address, which can help an accommodation, delivery courier or emergency contact locate a property. It is less useful for browsing restaurants, checking road quality or choosing a current route. Ask the property for its digital address before arrival when relevant. Outside major cities, map coverage, road condition and mobile service can become less dependable. Heavy rain and flooding can disrupt roads and public transport. Confirm remote routes, entrances and current conditions with accommodation staff or a reputable local operator, especially before night travel. Do not assume a route is safe or passable merely because either app draws a line to the destination.
