"Keep it in Ghana"

Economic impact studies consistently find a high level of "leakage" of initial tourist spending, with much of it leaving the host country to pay for profits on investments by transnational hotel chains and tour operators, and for imported goods and services used in the tourism industry. The World Bank estimates this leakage to be nearly 75% of what travelers spend for travel to a developing economy. This leakage may be so significant that it partially neutralizes the money generated by tourism.

Easy Track Ghana believes this practice is wrong for a developing economy.  Our most significant pledge of responsibility is our promise to do our best to "Keep It In Ghana"!

  • We use local businesses when possible, even if it costs more.
  • We use Ghanaian-owned and operated hotels and resorts. We only use non-Ghanaian hotels or resorts upon special request.
  • We patronize eating establishments that provide safe, locally grown food and beverages.
  • We do not pay any salary to any person residing outside of Ghana.
  • We do not sell our tours via Online Travel Agents (OTAs) like Viator, Tour Radar, Expedia, GetYourGuide, etc. Such OTA's demand commissions of between 20% and 30% of the total tour cost. This is money that flows directly into pockets of multinational corporations and never enters the Ghana economy!
