the dw reporter counting him, still follows in the footsteps of her and sister who is at the stake is being a solid g of which is really a thing of the past. 60 minute dw, we are all set and we'll what thing closely we are all in to bring you the story behind the news. we are all about unbiased information for 3 life done hello, welcome to your favorite show, the 77 percent coming to straight from zambia and my name is side to illegal below she, i promise you we have issue pockets. food. when loads of fun. he done went to,

is that out, visit for them. showcase is the beauty of our beloved continent. would bring you some of africa, the finest stories be quite spots and here is what's coming up. we meet uganda who a boosting the local tourism industry in can yes, up in smiles. takes us on a mesmerizing balloon to over my sy, mata and cut. i've seen that with the i mean i showed with us through the narrow street of stone town. so we, i live in stone, one of zombie as tourists hotspots. every, what i'm doing is southern tourists visit this place to see the, my t, them be the river. well, it is also a place me come to see them was doing a full which is known as the victoria falls. as you can see, we're actually in the dry season. so the water is not as intense as compared to the rain and season. however, if you still want to see the mark that thunder,

which is what was the tune your means, then you will have to cross over it is in bob way inside. we did it earlier, but there are so many things to see here. a side the side of the false come, let me show you around. this is the victoria falls bridge crossing over there then be the river, which forms the border between zambia and zimbabwe. the bridge, however, links the 2 countries. now this is not the only thing that doris here. oh, tories that are coming here. find inviting. one of the most daring things to do on this bridge is to jump over this stretch, which is a 111 meters is clear. yes. down the road. now the question is, will i be able to do this or not? let's find out if i'm burying enough. i'm shaking already a tooth. that's my number to that. a

. i will save my worth. yeah. fight and was and that's what i'm about that with i hope so. 0321 i had and could remember you must you really go going oh oh, i feel so proud to don. she's great. thank you lou. we did. if you're scared of heights, you're scared of you will not regret the

well, we're still here on the victoria was bridge in livingstone, as you can see behind me, is rather by jumping takes place if already seen that. so i am now going to talk to mr. hill, i actually pub, who is the chair present of the livingstone tourism association. hillary 1st, have you ever done his mind to jumping before? yes and twice i did filled space every one of those times. oh my goodness, i thought it would begin to imagine again. what? yeah. are you doing so much in labels done 1st, tell us what this place means. design is tourism industry. it is a choice of them. yeah. and rightfully so, because we go, the victoria falls, which obviously, you know, depending bundle there was, but you'd go in there is a lot of natural sites are just around the town of living itself. a lot of why

historical significantly to the cultural aspect of it is still very much alive with you have the highest within the village live just around the livingston. so we have that mix of life and obviously what the typical african life you'd like. and how much is this contribute into design, be an economy prior covey that at least on record 7.2 percent of the duty of the country. and we tried to push that number up because obviously of the potential that we still have was a country quite interesting. but as you can see, we actually saw that the, the fall is not really coming out to what is meant to a pause when at this moment, no way in the dry season. yeah. but would you say the place has also been affected by climate change and anyway, mostly the, the low. what does that get to obviously the not sure putting that we do have, but you can't completely rule out the, the if it's negative, if of why you know,

the climate change that we've been experiencing globally bottom of the reason why we need to pay particular attention to that but fairly the last 2 years it was been quite, quite good on record and a few we not affected as much yet, but yes, we need to look at how accessible would you say your tourism, especially to young zambia, are very opposite and that's the market that we're trying to explore both we have in collaborative efforts of the private sector as well as the government was we want to make sure that the, you know, a country gets to experience more. so these 2 are offering, take advantage of what we have. you know, as a country sometimes we be more likely blamed for did we can't really see what we have and we just want everybody to appreciate the value of their tourism offering that we do have. all right, we did put the same question to young zombie ends into soccer,

and here's what they had to say that the nation, the drug should i looking at the metro london and the thought there was life in livingstone. we have victor, a voice which is quoted before, we are trying to r e. we have revised legs. the best place to go to. if you want to go, i said you really have to make your budget because that's, that place is really expensive because right now they have on the fuel prices. so the amount like the bus fare, you might be the best and that afford quite the right. but then there are others like me who don't really have that much of money to spend to travel, to grand visit their places. they target football from venetian those nor did you find that the locals do stay in. yeah. buy most of them just would be as wicked as and everything and my journey to them. not a lot going of the place. it was that george he said try should i think they should

law the prices for the local. i think the best that they can do is maybe like if they, they can like say to do my cation like decide for the zombie ends and decide for the international in terms of maybe lord gina, and also prices. and instead of putting them the same, i think they can just more like make it free for students that we usually learn about these things, maybe in class, but then we don't get the chance to visit the places in person due to money transfer the course government needs to do something to see most of the things we, we live in school. i feel like if we had to do the actual visitation, i think it will make more sense than now. let me get in the classroom leafing late

from the books and all that. well, have you heard what the young vampire impacted say? would you say that this tourism is affordable? ambien maybe to purchase to that. mostly there was this perception that there wasn't, and of course the directions of the local, the local pricing on most of the activities. but that was more, went away in this campaign. but we do agree also with the sentiments, because generally we have been perceived to be slightly higher or more expensive by destination. now we've been waiting round the clock to see on how we can wake around, you know, pricing and weaving the government at many levels. and we are hoping we will be winning in that regard. but yes, there is a load of dispos that tends to make sure that it's really affordable. and just when you come to reason the, especially in livingston, these categories that you might want to take advantage of whereby even with the

lowest possible budget, you to be able to experience some of the things leading that you know, have to offer. ok. so you're saying you have plans in place to make it to make it more affordable. i was just able to the, to the yes, yes, you would be with rhonda if there's anything that africans can learn from livingstone, mode of tourism. what was your childhood, especially just how you are able to generate more employment opportunities for young people towards the, for us to after it comes natural. because when you talk about torrie, this is more like, you know, more of a lot of our hosting. so i think it's a natural advantage that we do have, you know, the one for the indian people themselves that can really be experienced from the typical setup of our livingstone. and i feel this is the basis on which we begin to be because at the end of the day, it's about the stories that we sharing. you know that the experiences, interruptions that we have and everything else viewed around that. so it's really

the personality that we do, you know, to, to reason that i think will be the major. you mentioned cover briefly in what specific ways has it affected your tourism? has it in any way affected? i think you never did fix our industry. thankfully the, this, this is our 5th hope to resume almost came to it was more like on need needs the last 2 years. it was threats. well we didn't really know how long it's going to last go when we're going to have that breakthrough. but hopefully this is our fiscal year and it's cutting, but i do not want to just think we are bought 65 percent on recovery protocol. it's really affected in every way. and you may want to note that our own living on the economy revolves around to our resume. again, about 6570 to 72 is related businesses. thank you so much. you're very welcome. love any you gotten back key lesson that's a alters company. learned was diversify their customer base due to coven 19,

while remember, covered 90 did pause restrictions that limited international tourism. now, this local company has turned to y'all local tourists to keep their business booming. let's take a look. mt. l gone. an eastern uganda is an untouched piece of nature. the old volcano is 4300 meters high. it slopes are in the hot spot for africa, the young generation of travellers. ah ha, we're doing observing. grady, r o a 100. okay. do you carry margin, but it's all the way through the book. oh, steve young boy. lumpy again in a rush. they want to enjoin nature that they were to enjoy it their way.

hickin had welfare for my account. we are not about to gander to the plague old that you would come to us prior to the recent domestic tourism campaigns, more young ugandans as seeking out adventure, tourism, and jobs. so echo has spotted a business opportunity and it involves a bit of risk taking your attention. that is why we always say that, do not know what you think. always do what we tell you to do. a 26 year old has started a travel company offering young travelers adventures on the mountain. do you go to la guardia? loaded all these guys need to trust. job 100 percent. it's a life changing experience just it can help to build momentum

in them. it can help to build strengths because this is like conquering one of the fears that you have in your life. doing this is like your being more brave ah, tourism in uganda is heavily dependent on foreign travellers. most of them come to see animals like the big cats and the very adorable mountain gorillas. but job is now investing in adventures designed for the young and curious travelers from uganda itself. he knows it's not an easy task. when a young person is joining something that is always that high expectations, i 100 clients, i need this, that cannot help been in a silver plate. you need to walk a poor need. you need to be very consistent tourism knits patients. it's nips creativity. it's amidst motivation, it's always need your mind to think every one hour you have to spend thinking of

the new word that comes in so that you can convince someone to come and enjoy your sub job says before the curve at 19 pandemic. the number of tourists had significantly increased from a monthly average of 20 at the start of 2014 to about 4 times as many by february 2020 right now, his groups may be small, but as the vaccine roll out gets underway, jump is optimistic that more travelers will soon come to see the scenic mountain slips. again. it is as readily junk is. i love our hobby and excited they are. hopefully we can

all get a chance to enjoy something i've beautiful. i've back in all countries. now the most i, mara, is one of africa as best the fiery destination. approximately 300000 tourists, visit the place to see if exceptional, wide life. and what better way to say they've been for the birds i. we met with africa 1st female balloon pilot captain. love me. if i thought to the sky, the mass i mara, by in a spectacle above one of africa's most famous national parks for captain joyce beckwith. it's another day in her office in the skies. she became the world's 1st licensed black female hot air balloon pilot in 2019 colleagues called beckwith captain smiles for her infectious smile. i knew that i was going to be the cannon,

the fast canyon, our pilots o female pilots to get the balloon. but i did not realize that i was actually going to be the 1st black woman in the while to do this. she caught the ballooning bug from her husband's family. you are generational balloonist. but ballooning is a very niche market. there isn't even a training program for it in kenya. so to take things to the next level, captain smiles earned her license at a special flying school in the united states. there's even a mural of her at the international balloon museum in new mexico. i'm okay. so every time people go and send me pictures, you know, the only thing i went to see their, their smiles were quick. you know, it's just a mural of me. the 35 year old spends most of her early

mornings, showing visitors the hot stopping magic of sunrise above them. my say mara, national park, went and prices of around $400.00 per person. it's a luxury only few can afford. as the untamed wilderness stretches below antelopes canter, birds sing, and a light wind blows. for most, this is a once in a lifetime experience. just asked kenyon, stand up comedian eunice, when jiro, aka mito, who gave herself a very special birthday present. i flew with captain smiles and lemons her. she's amazing. she is excellent as well as she does. she is our professional. and where you are, that we've has, is such a vibe and on there is an am til of telling you know, like she's flying and telling you the adam of the same time. that's amazing. she knows them promo. ah, but eh, balloons work on

a simple physical principle. once the inside the balloon is heated, it gets lighter than the cooler on the outside, which causes it to float upwards. the foot air balloon flies in the direction of the wind, but the pilot can control the movement by using the bonus to change its temperature and navigating the winds at different heights. captain smiles has been flying high since 2019 and so far has loved 200 hours. me. when i am flying, i can only describe beat freedom. i can describe beats of gosh, it's you just have to fly. you don't have to comply with me to, to, to know what i'm talking about. also flying and leslie matter. you have animals

around the environment, the fresh air circulating in the morning. you know, from all the nice, green, savannah i, it's perfect. it's buffing me. captain smiles, trailblazer in the truest sense of the word. she's chatted a lot ceiling for women in aviation and help show of kenya to the world at one of its finest moment. sunrise above the mara. hello, this make we really going high as a 77 percent kid us to that lady for truly breaking the glass ceiling. now if we truly talking about tourism in africa, we certainly cannot leave light on. it is also known as that is the bar and the biggest island i'll be, i keep ology of tis any i'm the place is a melting pot of closures. after to our queen city, i mean as shown us through the narrow streets of stone town.

top genre, into prominence way back in 1928 into britain. the traditional style with more danceable jobs for the 21st century is the name of the game. and so is breaking down barriers about who is allowed to play. when i grew up, i didn't see the and women playing that would then must be some one to break this tumbles. and that's why i decided to attack the food as an instrument. i'm in as bond may pay tribute to the historic queen of tara, but story town house also produced a musical queen of a different kind. the city is a better place of rock legend, freddie mercury. and these, it was born here and raised here in vanity back. and after that, he took the music all over the world if the reactions of the funds on the street or anything to go by freddy mercury is not the
