The 2012 safari season started out slow, but
it has finally picked up. There’s still more work to be done, more marketing,
more infrastructures to build, more tour agents to bargain with, and more
government regulations to follow but at least bills are paid on time and
there's hope for a better future.
Working together to create the
best tourism in the country doesn't come without its ups and downs, talking to hoteliers,
tour agents and investment owners I have the advantage of obtaining inside information
that few have and I’m grateful to share. Looking at the numbers, the headaches,
the high interest investment loans it gives you the feeling that the dream of
owning and operating hotels, lodges, bnb's,Inns is not always what it's cracked
up to be, or is it? .Tourists and traveler agents are now able to research your
accommodation and services with a click
of a button and in a few seconds all the images, the amenities, the services
and the reputation of the accommodation is displayed for free, Heart attack yet?.
This can be dynamite for smart hoteliers’ and their accommodations but it can
also be a disaster if you are not on top of your game. This raises the
question, what it means being “Ontop of your game in African hospitality
business?" Is it having the best location, the most expensive and unique services,
the most advanced elevators, TV’s and communication systems that most customers
don’t either have the time or electricity is not available for them to use or
the daily freebies or wait what freebies?. With more accommodations thriving
and depending on tourists coming from overseas, it's sometimes hard to answer
that question, just copying and pasting what other accommodations in the world
are doing, works only for certain things but not specifically for Africa, taking
under consideration the water supply problems, daily power outages, expensive
internet access, expensive diary products. We need a better way to express our high
end hospitality services the African way, showing our culture through food, art,
and quality concierge services, while being innovative and competitive in this
multi million dollar market in the heart of Africa.
I encourage anyone who has the finance, knowledge
and interested in the hospitality business in Arusha town to jump on the band wagon,
build your dream accommodation and create your own unique services, but please
do your research first, know the trends and most of all hire the best people to
make your business a success, Arusha city has so much to offer it just needs
people that will believe in it and those who have, are rewarded with the fruits
of their hard work.
