Great tours! Easy to organize in advance
Did a waterfalls tour and cooking class. Both were very enjoyable, the cooking class was extra special. Very easy to organize well in advance from out of the country compared to some of the more informal tour operators.

excellent experience with easy track!
words cannot describe the fantastic experience we had with easy track all the way from booking to the end of the tour. let's start with ebenezer. i worked with him to customize a 3 day private tour. he was the most thoughtful, responsive and customer-focused agent i have ever worked with, and i've done tons of international travel. i love that they create a personal tour webpage just for you when you book. and their prices are more than reasonable for everything you get.

let's talk about the tours themselves. for 3 days, we had a private driver / guide named jessie who was fantastic. he accommodated our every need, was very personable, knowledgeable, funny and sharp! the man was dressed like a million dollars every day, even though it was 115+ degrees with the heat index! he was so attentive, that he would recognize when we were getting tired, so he would adjust things on the fly (with our permission) so that we didnt over extend ourselves.

for reference, here's everything we booked / saw with our tours
day 1: Posuban Shrine, Cape Coast Castle, Door Of Return, Assin Manso
day 2: Elmina Castle, Fishing Village, Kakum National Park & Canopy Walk
day 3: Aburi Gardens, Craft Market, Durbar of Chiefs

if you are going to ghana, you absolutely MUST book with easy track!!!

Accra City Tour, La Beach
We visited Kwame Nkrumah Monument (climbed to the top), Independence Square (massive and impressive), Jamestown (very sad history through a walking tour), WEB DeBois Center (amazing to learn it was his last house and final resting plac)., and ended our day at La Pleasure beach where we enjoyed delicious jumbo pawns.

Coffin Workshop Tour
I took the half day coffin workshop tour on my first day in Ghana. I really appreciated the pickup and drop off at my hotel. My driver Mohammed was friendly with me and careful in his driving. My guide Ebenezer was knowledgeable and accommodating. The tour and carver were fascinating and I had a great time! I also enjoyed (and was surprised at) all the information available on their website on such topics as tipping, communicating with locals, bargaining and handling uncomfortable situations. Great company! I only wish I found them sooner in my trip planning process!!!

Your guiding star in Ghana
I was very impressed with the service and the friendly attitude. Guys are flexible as much as you need. I took a sightseeing tour of Accra and a visit to a shaman and everything was just superb!

Great Tour operator
Loved the team and professionalism of teh tour guides. Was it a perfect 10? No, not always but I don’t expect it to be. I felt safe and taken care of. Tour guides were there to pick us up on time and helpful and friendly. We had a blast and lot of fun during the tours. Will definitely use them again on my next trip to this magnificent country!

Beautiful forest walk
A fantastic walk through the forest with birds and butterflies around you. The birds scan be hard to spot but there are plenty. Walk is lovely. Our guide Kwame was a truly exceptional guide. He knew everything. His identification from bird song was nothing short of amazing and his ability to spot birds in deep foliage nothing short of miraculous.

full service birding trip
I was treated to a fantastic one-day birding trip north of Accra in the Atewa range area. Easy to request, great communication and tailored to my needs. Don was a wonderful companion driver, and Easy Track Ghana got me one of the top local birders Kwame Brown who made the trip a fantastic experience. The incredible heat and the terrible traffic exiting Accra was completely out of their control! I would do this again

Loving Ghana
Our Ghana family was wondeful. friendly, extremely hospitable. This was an experience of a lifetime. We participated in a name changing ceremony. It was fantastic. If you are going to Ghana you don't want to miss this experience! I give it a 10 out of 10 if I had to rate it.

Got a day trip with them. Driver and all tour guides were great. However, last place on the list was rushed due to not being opened. A bit of disappointment at the end as we would have loved to know about it beforehand. It seems that a Ghanaian tradition requiere some professions not to work on a Tuesday. Advice is to check and reconfirm with them to be sure and/or maybe know about the local tradition to pick the right day for your tour. Unfortunately, this last one may be a bit challenging to find out by a tourist.

Accra Trip with Jessie and Thomas
Our trip was amazing!!! I will definitely be coming back to Accra every year! I will always make sure I book with Jessie. Everything was amazing. Jessie takes really good care of the people he takes around. Our driver Thomas was also amazing. They made us feel safe and comfortable.

Traditional Naming Ceremony
What an amazing way to start the new year. After doing my research and speaking regularly with Ebenezer, I booked this trip with a simple deposit. Communication was great from day one.
I chose to organize this ceremony on January 1 because I wanted my group to be “reborn” in a way leading into the new year. We were not disappointed.
From drop off, until the end of the day, Jessie took excellent care of us and provided us with knowledge and blessings we needed to jumpstart 2020.
The village was full of wonderful people, many we met as we walked to the market. Playing table tennis with the young men as we walked was a special bonus!
Between the blessings, the libations, dancing and drumming, and having our lunch with everyone, this “tour” felt like we were visiting family. We never wanted to leave them.
There was even a moment one of my friends got tired and wanted to go to the van to rest. Jessie wanted no parts of that and had the community create a comfortable space for her to lay down. Others joined when she looked so content. That’s what family does.
My group is still talking about this day and how impactful it was for us. I’d recommend it to anyone, and I have.
Thanks for a wonderful day and this wonderful cultural experience. Abena lives in me. I’m thankful I get to share her with others
Best,
Abena

Easy Track Ghana to Cape Coast
Had a great experience with Easy attack Ghana. They were able to book a trip for me last minute and provide excellent service. My drive Jojo did a great job driving us around to Cape Coast, Elmina, Kakum, and other places. He would make sure we are hydrated and looked out for us. As tourists we felt very safe with him. He picked us up from our house and dropped us off there - didn’t need to meet at rendezvous point which was also convenient. I also appreciated ETG checking in with us during the tour to make sure we had a great experience. Highly recommend!
