9:31 am
some of africa? pinus stories, the hot spots and here is what's coming up. we meet young uganda who a boosting the local tourism industry in can yeah. captains for miles takes us on a mesmerizing balloon to us over to my sy, mata and it's cut. i've seen that at the army not shows with us through the narrow strip of stone town. so we, i leave in stone, one of them b as tourists caught slides area, 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 they come to see them was the 24th, 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 in season. however, if you still want to see the smoke that thunder, which is what was the tune your means, then you will have to cross over. it is been bob way inside. we did it earlier, but there are so many things to see here. a side the side of the false come,
9:32 am
let me show you around. this is a victoria fall as bridge crossing over there then be the river, which one of the bar that between zambia and zimbabwe. the bridge however, linked 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 clearance down to 0. and now the question is, will i be able to do this or not? let's find out if i'm daring enough shaking already. huh. that's my number to a . well, i'm with my worth the height and what that what i'm about to overcome
9:33 am
9:34 am
well, we're still here on the victoria was bridge in livingstone, as you can see behind me, is rather by jumping. take place if i 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 gotten invited to jumping before? yes and twice. i did filled space with everyone all those times. oh my goodness, i didn't begin to imagine again. what are you doing so much in livingston 1st? tell us what this place means. design is tourism industry. it is a good bit of them. yeah. and rightfully so, because we go, the victoria falls, which obviously, you know, depending on the water, but you'd go in there. there's a lot of natural sites are around the town of living itself. why historically, significantly to the cultural aspect of it is still very much alive with you,
9:35 am
how they, how does the village live just around the livingston? so we have that different 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 coffee that at least on record 7.2 percent of the duty of the country. and we tried to push that number because we obviously have the potential that we have what the country, what interesting, but as you can see, we actually saw that the fall is not really coming out to what is left to a pause when at this moment no way 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 effects of the negative effects of why you know, the climate change that we've been experiencing. go globally, bottom of the reason why we need to pay particular attention to that. but fairly
9:36 am
the last 2 years. it was been quite, quite good on record and i few, we not affected much yet. but yes, we need to look at how accessible would you say your tourism, especially to young zambia? very well, and that's the market that we're trying to explode. 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 the tourism offerings that we do have. all right, we did put the same question to young van b ends into soccer, and here's what they had to say them as a nation. so should i looking at the metro by then?
9:37 am
and the thought was life in livingstone. we have victor, a voice which is quoted before, we are trying to r e. we have revised legs. i think it's the best place to go to. if you want to go, i say you really have to make your budget because that's, that place is really expensive. because right now they have increases on the fuel prices, so the amount like the best value might be best and that afford greater rate. but then there are others like me who don't really have that much of money to spend to travel, to grand visit the places they target football from venetian those nor did you find that the locals do stay in? yeah, buy most of them just with the as wicked as and everything and the majority of them are not allowed to go into the places what that jury said try should i think they should law, the prices for the locals. i think the best that they can do is maybe like
9:38 am
if they, they can like set to do my cation like, besides for the zombie ends and decide for the international in terms of maybe larger wonderful prices. and instead of putting them the same, i think they can just more like make it free for students because we usually lynn about these things, maybe in class, but then we don't get the chance to visit the places in this and you do money transfer course. government, you need to do something to see what 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 to the classroom. leafing late from the books and all that. well, have you heard what the young vampire had to say? would you say that this?
9:39 am
the tourism is affordable? ambien. yeah, maybe to purchase to that. mostly there was this perception that we're, that wasn't in the course 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 working round the clock to see on how we can wake around pricing. and we've invest government at many levels. and we are hoping, well, we'll be winning in that regard. but yes, there is a load of disparate attempts to make sure that it's really affordable. and just when you come there isn't, especially in livingston these categories that you might want to take advantage of . whereby even with the lowest possible budget used to be able to experience some of the things leading them. you know how to of ok. so you think you have plans in
9:40 am
place to make it to make it more affordable. i was just able to the, to the yes, yes, using with around it. if there is anything that africans can learn from livingstone, mode of tourism, what does your child efficiently do? how you are able to generate more employment opportunities for young people towards the, for us after that 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 young people themselves that can really be experienced from the typical sit up a while livingstone. and i feel this is the basis on which we begin to build. because at the end of the day, it's about the stories that we sharing, you know, 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 everything that i think will be the major. you mentioned cover briefly in what
9:41 am
specific ways has it affected your tourism? has it in any way affected it? i think you maybe we'll see what i did fix our industry. thankfully the this is our 5th hope to resume almost came to it was more like on needs needs. the last 2 years was threats. well, we didn't know how far along is going to last go when we're going to have that british rule, but hopefully this is our fiscal year and it's cutting, but i do not 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 percent is what it is and related businesses. thank you so much. you're very welcome. well, any you gotten back key lesson that's a young tourist company learned what's a diversified that customer base due to covey 19. well, remember, over 900 post restrictions that limited international tourism. now,
9:42 am
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 hotspot for africa, the young generation of travellers. ah, there we are doing observing. grady r o a 100. okay. do you carry, why did, why did it all the way to the boat? oh, leave young boy lumpy, a join in a rush. they want to enjoy nature that they were to enjoy it there way i can hear welfare for medicaid. we are not about to gander who the plague old, that you would come to the reason,
9:43 am
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 do 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. yes, it can hope to build momentum in them. it can help to build strength because this is like conquering one of the fears that you have in your life doing
9:44 am
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 happen in the silver plate. you need to walk a poor need. you need to be very consistent tourism nits patience. it's nips creativity. it's an it's motivation, it's always need your mind to think every one hour you have to spend thinking of the new word that's comes in so that you can convince someone to come and enjoy
9:45 am
your sub job says before the clevic 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 rollout gets underway, jump is optimistic that more travelers will soon come to see the scenic mountain slopes. 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,
9:46 am
visit the place to see if exceptional, wide live and what better way to save benson or the birds i. we met with africa 1st female balloon pilot captain smiled. li if a thought to the sky the mass i mara by air 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 a infectious smile. i knew that i was going to be the canon, the fast canyon, our pilots or female pilots to get the balloon. but i did not realize that i was
9:47 am
actually going to be the 1st black woman in the while to do this. she caught the ballooning bug from her husband's family to our 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 his 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, they only see i went to see their, their smiles, they're quick, you know, and 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. i say mara,
9:48 am
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 ask kenyon, stand up comedian eunice, when jiro, aka mommy to who gave herself a very special birthday present. i flew with captain smiles and let me tell her she is amazing. she is excellent as well as she does. she is our professional and where you are now with how she's such a vibe and, and there is an antenna of telling you know, late she's flying and telling you the abbey was the same time. that's amazing. she knows them from me. but eh, balloons work on a simple physical principle. once the inside the balloon is heated,
9:49 am
it gets lighter than the cooler on the outside, which causes it to float upward. 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. when i am flying, i can only describe beat freedom. i can describe beats of gosh, it's, it is just have to fly. you don't have to comply with me to, to, to know what i'm talking about. also flying in wrestling 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,
