Our Story
The inspiration behind Purpose Mission Tours was sparked over 20 years ago, when my mother, Abigail, brought a group of her friends to her homeland of Ghana. That journey left a profound impact on everyone who participated, forging lifelong memories and deep, lasting friendships. Over the years, our team has had the privilege of organizing transformative travel experiences for diverse groups from all walks of life. Our tours go beyond simply showcasing the beauty of the places you visit; they create meaningful connections and unforgettable moments that leave a lasting impression—not only on you, but also on the incredible people you meet along the way. With every journey, we strive to inspire, uplift, and bring people closer together.
