Welcome to Katsina, a city with deep-rooted history and culture. We're kickstarting our tour at the Emir's Palace, one of the oldest traditional institutions in Nigeria. Post that, you'll be immersing yourself in the region's rich history at the Katsina City Walls and Gates including the remarkable Kofar Kwaya, Kofar Soro and Kofar Yandaka. After lunch, get a glimpse of local craft and pottery at the famous Gobarau Minaret. Then as the sun sets, we'll take a leisure stroll in the serene environments of Katsina National Park – a perfect end to your first day in the vibrant city!

Day 2 - Deep into the Katsina Culture

It’s day two and a visit to Kusugu Well is on the cards. A historical site where locals traditionally fetched water for centuries. Following this, we'll take you to enjoy the display of centuries-old architecture at the Gobarau Minaret. Post lunch, you'll have the opportunity to explore the National Museum displaying a range of archaeological and ethnographic artifacts. To end the day, let’s dip our toes in the colorful and bustling Central Market. Experience the vibrant local market scene and perhaps pick up a souvenir or two!

Day 3 - Wrapping up with Nature's Touch

For the final day, brace yourself for an exciting visit to the Kusugu well and a stroll through the peaceful Dutsin-Ma garden. Once we've taken in the peace and tranquillity, we'll head off to an interactive session at the Katsina Teacher's College known for being the alma mater of Nigeria's former President, Umaru Yar'Adua. As we step towards the end of our adventure, there’s a final culinary stop as we relish local Katsina dishes for lunch.
