Africa Travel Week’s Virtual Meetings & Masterclasses

We’re launching our virtual Meetings & Masterclasses this September in celebration of Tourism Month to connect African tourism products with buyers from across the world.

The virtual Meetings & Masterclasses will run from September to November. During the event, attendees can engage in a series of educational masterclasses led by industry experts. And, unlike your standard webinars, these sessions will encourage a two-way conversation between the teacher-hosts and attendees. You will get to meet with our experts!

In addition to the Meetings & Masterclasses series, the travel and tourism community can sign-up to take part in WTM Virtual, a two-day event that will take place from 10-11 November 2020. The virtual show, organised by WTM London, aims to ensure participation and global reach.

Motivation for booking a wellness trip

Wellness has been a popular trend within the tourism industry for a while now. It allows travellers to use their holidays, and precious time off work, to maintain or improve their health or wellbeing through physical, psychological or spiritual activities, or even launch themselves on a new path to better health.

The luxury of sleep

We place such an esteemed value to things that are not there, or difficult to obtain. When life was simpler, luxury was geared towards what was gold and glittered. Just a few decades later, changes brought upon our lifestyles meant that people are now missing out on what used to be easily obtained. One of these things is a good night’s sleep.
