You’ve felt it too, haven’t you?
That quiet pull toward Africa—the curiosity, the questions, the longing to reconnect with something deeper. I created BRAAFIË Tours for people just like you.

My name is Niadi E. and I started BRAAFIË Tours after answering that call for myself. Born and raised in Durham, North Carolina in a household where conversations about Africa were not discussed because parents needed to focus on more pressing matters, I still felt that “call” to the continent. In 2021, I visited for the very first time in June for one month. I visited again that same December of 2021. In 2022, I packed my bags and spent three months living in Ghana. I needed to see if I could live in this country I’d fallen in love with. I didn’t know exactly what I was looking for—but what I found was clarity, healing, joy, and a sense of home I never knew I needed. That journey changed everything. I knew more of us needed access to this experience—and the confidence to take that first step.

BRAAFIË Tours was born from that moment. We don’t just curate trip to the African contient. We create life-changing experiences for members of the African diaspora who are ready to rediscover themselves through Africa. We are not exclusive to the African diaspora; however, you are our target audience as we hope to ignite something amongst our community that is necessary for forward progression, unity and upward mobility.

Whether you’ve never been or you’ve always dreamed of going, we guide you every step of the way—from your first “yes” to your first step on African soil.

What We Believe

We build every trip around 4 core pillars:

• 🌍 Cultural Reconnection – You deserve to experience Africa beyond the stereotypes. We focus on authentic stories, traditions, and shared history.

• ✈️ Ease & Accessibility – No stress, no overwhelm. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the moment.

• 📚 Education & Exchange – You’ll learn with local communities, not just about them. We support meaningful dialogue and shared growth. The transformation our service provides for our young scholars is exactly WHY we do this work.

• 💛 Community Impact – We partner with local guides, artisans, and businesses so that we are not only consuming the beauty of Ghana, but intentionally pouring in to the country as well. We also offer optional service collaboration opportunities with local NGO’s as a part of your tours.

Our Vision

We imagine a world where the African diaspora feels rooted, reconnected, and powerful. Through travel, we help rewrite the narrative—showing Africa as the vibrant, diverse, and beautiful continent it truly is. We also connect two very different, yet similar worlds - the continent and her diaspora. Our favorite part is witnessing how each trip transforms guests internally when they are finished with us!

This is more than a vacation.
It’s a return. A homecoming. A beginning. A reclamation.
