I travelled in some parts of Africa when I was a student and it was the enjoyment of traveling in those few countries that encouraged me to share what I knew with my friends and family, After my studies from Uganda, my mother who is experienced retired tour operator assisted me to open Company for tourists from the scratch, I worked with her as a trainer, I started to get bookings and I found that I enjoyed planning their trips that started me as an independent, agent for my travel company. After my tour agent relocated, I became certified, bonded and licensed and started out on helping planning trips to Tanzania. Now as an independent tour agent, I focus my travel business on Zanzibar tours and Wildlife Safaris Tanzania mainland packages and I am very grateful to be part of the Africa Travellers Team.
