Nigerian entrepreneur Rory Okoli began her career in the hospitality sector in Nigeria. Throughout her experience and travels across Africa, she recognized challenges faced by tourists in organizing trips to the continent. To address these issues, Okoli founded TripZapp, which aims to simplify the process for travelers to discover, book, and pay for African travel experiences.
TripZapp’s mission focuses particularly on connecting locally-owned businesses with tourists, supporting the local economy in the process. The company has incorporated advanced payment and productivity tools into its operations to enhance user experience. Currently, TripZapp offers a wide range of activities for travelers, including experiences such as swimming with turtles in Zanzibar and enjoying hot air balloon rides in Egypt.
This initiative is part of a broader exploration of technology’s role in Africa. What impact does the integration of technology have on tourism in the region?
