The tour will focus on promoting health care and education programmes run by US foreign aid organisation USAID.
She will also visit Kenya, Malawi and Egypt to foster diplomatic relations.
In February, a row broke out after President Donald Trump allegedly used the word "shithole" to describe African nations.
Mrs Trump's week-long trip to the continent is seen as helping to heal some of the divisions.
She will also promote her Be Best initiative which aims to tackle issues such as cyberbullying and boost healthy living. She tweeted that the campaign was going "international".
Ahead of her trip Mrs Trump said that she was looking forward to visiting "four beautiful and very different countries in Africa".
"She is interested in Africa because she has never been before and knows that each country will have its own unique history and culture." Stephanie Grisham, her communications director, said.
She said that she was looking forward to better understand how the US can continue working together with Malawi to support a USAid program that is focussed on children's education.
Mrs Trump also highlighted the work the US was doing in Kenya to support early-childhood education, wildlife conservation, and HIV prevention.
"My final stop, which is Egypt, will focus on the country's tourism and conservation projects, but I know that through USAid, we have worked with the people of Egypt to promote an environment in which all groups of society - including women and religious minorities - can lead productive and healthy lives," she said.
The US first lady was welcomed by traditional drummers and dancers at the Kotoka International Airport in the capital, Accra.
However, according to Ghanaian journalist Elizabeth Ohene, there is not an atmosphere of Trump-mania in Ghana.
"I think Melania is a great woman. Her story is particularly inspiring," one resident of Accra told the BBC.
But another compared her unfavourably to former First Lady Michelle Obama who was warmly received with her husband on a trip in 2009.
Ahead of his wife's trip to Africa President Trump told reporters: "We both love Africa. Africa is so beautiful. The most beautiful part of the world, in many ways."
This view is at odds with comments he allegedly made in a private discussion in February,
Mr Trump was accused of racism, after he was reported to have used the word "shithole" to refer to African nations when talking about immigration policy.
The African Union asked him to apologise over the comment.
He later told reporters: "I am not a racist. I'm the least racist person you have ever interviewed."
Gerard Pique,welcomed their first child into the world last year January.Shakira told the magazine that ''I think it takes two to keep it passionate in relationships,a lot of laughter and a lot of fun moments together,that's essential but also affinity,you know.You have to be compatible.I'm really happy where i am right now,with the person that i'm with right now.He seems to want the same things i want,and that's very important''.More pictures below.
According to the Araba of Osogboland Chief Yemi Elebuibon,debunk the rumors that the new Ooni will eat the heart of the late Ooni of Ife as custom demands,so he cleared the air when he recently said that ''The heart of the late king would not be fed to the next Ooni.The eating of the heart of a departed King by an incoming one belonged to the past.It no longer exists.People still make this insinuation because many are barred from witnessing the burial of a king.What the incoming king will eat is the heart of an animal and not that of a human.Nobody will be buried with the Ooni.Nobody would be killed for any form o sacrifice''.Thank God he clarified the part that no one will be buried with the Ooni,because the rumors going round is that the Sarun,otherwise known as Abobakun,is on the run,to escape being buried with the late Ooni of Ife.Lowa Adimula of Ife,Oba Joseph Ijaodola,who is the Head o...
