Good to know
Easy Track Ghana is an Accra-based tour operator licensed by the Ghana Tourism Authority and registered as a limited company in Ghana. Its office is in Dome-Kwabenya in the north of the city, about 15 to 20 minutes from Kotoka International Airport, and it describes itself as a licensed operator since 2008. The company runs everything from half-day experiences in Accra to multi-day tours of Ghana, Togo and Benin, and most trips can be adjusted to suit each group.
Its best-known Accra experience is the Old Accra Historic Walking Tour, a half-day walk of around three hours through Jamestown, the oldest part of the city. The tour begins at the Jamestown Community Theatre in the afternoon and visits a spiritual shrine and a family compound, the Mantse Palace, home of Jamestown's paramount chief, the old colonial post office and Franklin House, with James Fort and Ussher Fort seen from outside. A certified guide and entry fees at the scheduled stops are included. The company also offers a food-tasting experience in Accra and a range of day trips from the city.
Beyond Accra, Easy Track's range covers festivals and cultural events, wildlife tours including elephant safaris, birding trips, the Ashanti kingdom around Kumasi, northern Ghana, beach holidays and overnight or weekend trips. Tailor-made tours are a speciality, and the company is a good choice for travellers who want a private guide and vehicle and a flexible itinerary.
Tours are booked through a request form on the company's website: you request a tour, approve the final itinerary, review the terms and pay. The company advertises no rescheduling fees. Prices are quoted per person in US dollars, and walking tours do not run on Sundays. Wear comfortable shoes and a hat for the Jamestown walk, carry water and small notes for tips, and ask before photographing people in the community.
Because the Jamestown walk includes a family compound and a chief's palace, it gives a more personal view of the old town than wandering alone.
Easy Track can be contacted by phone or WhatsApp on its Ghanaian number, and it also lists a US phone number for overseas callers. For longer tours, contact the company several weeks ahead, particularly for festival dates and the busy December season.
