africa? why no stories? because what's and here is what's coming up. we me 2 young uganda who a boosting, deluca tourism industry in can yeah. up in smiles. takes us on a mesmerizing balloon to over to my sy, mata and cut i think that's the amino shows with us through the narrow strip of stone town. so we, i live in stone. one of them be as tourists hotspots, area more than 200000 tourists visit this place to see the my tease them, be the river. well, it is also a place may come to see them was doing a full which is known as the victoria both 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, you mean, 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 falls. come,

let me show you around. this is a victoria falls bridge crossing over there's and be the river which forms the ball that between zambia and zimbabwe. the breach, however, links the 2 countries. now this is not the only thing that juries here, o 2 or is that are coming here. find inviting. one of them was daring things to do . and this bridge is to jump over this stretch, which is a 111 meters is millions down to row. 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. ah, that's my number's a. well, i will save my worth the height and water and that's what i'm about to with

. i hope so. 0321. and could i remember you must you really go going oh, who i feel so proud to be done. great, thank you, lou. we did. if you're scared of heights, you're scared of water doing. you will have it right now. well, we're still here under victoria applause, bridge in livingstone,

as you can see behind me, it's rather budget john bean takes place. i've already seen that, so i am now going to talk to mr. hilary actually in palm who is the chairperson of the livingstone tourism i thought the agenda. hello 1st. have you ever done this monday? jumping before yes and twice i did filled special every one of those times. oh my goodness, i can't even begin to imagine again. but yes and below, even when i'm doing so much in labor that's done. first tell us what this place means to zamiah's tourism industry. it is to grab it of them. yeah. and rightfully so, because we go there. victoria falls, which obviously one of the was, but you'd go in there is a lot of natural sites are around the town of living itself. a lot of why historical significance it to us 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. obviously what the typical african life you'd like. and how much is this contributing to design be an economy or a prior coffee that at least on record 7.2 percent of the duty of the country. and we trying to push that number up because obviously of the potential that we have was a country quite interesting. but as you can see, we actually saw that the fall is not really coming out to what a lead to a paul will 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 i get to obviously the not sure putting that we do have, but you can't completely rule out the, the effect of we know very 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

the last 2 years. it was been quite, quite good on record and i feel we not affected as much yet. but yes, we need to look up. how accessible would you say your tourism? yeah. especially to young zambia, varia. and that's the market that we're trying to explore. both we have in collaborative efforts of the private sector as well as you know, 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 the countries sounds we days more like we are blindfolded, we can't really see what we have. and we just want to everybody to appreciate the value of our the tourism offerings that we do have. all right, we did put the same question to young zombie owns in the saga. and here's what they had to say. zombie as a nation, is he there twice that she had a looking at the natural for that by then. and the thought there was life in

livingstone. we have victor, a 4th, which is called a big voice. we are trying to arrest, we have revised legs for burst, most the gun to if you want to. good. i said you really have to make it, but it's good that that place is really expensive cuz right now they have increase on the fuel prices. so the amount busby, i use quite expensive. there are some that afford great de right. but there they are. others like me who don't really have that much of money to spend to travel, to grant visit, other places they targeted ah, football from other national north. doug, you'll find that that the locals do stay near by. most of them just with the, as wic as and everything and majority of them are not allowed to go into the of the places what that choice attraction eat. i think they should, the lower the prices for the locals. i think the best that they can do is um,

maybe like if they can like set a demarcation like beside full zombies in the site for international in terms of maybe lodging and also prices. and instead of putting them the same, i think they can just more like make it free for students. because that we usually learn about this thing maybe in class, but then we don't get the chance to visit the places in person. do too many transport course. government needs to do something cc. most of the things that we, we lend him 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 do that. well, have you heard what the young vampire impact to say? would you say indeed the tourism is affordable. zambian. yeah. maybe to our

purchase to that. mostly there was this perception that there with, that wasn't in the course the directions of the local, the local pricing on most of the activities. but that was more of a way on this campaign. but we do agree also we sent to me because that generally we have been perceived to be slightly higher or more expensive by destination. and now we've been waking round the clock to see on how we can wake around, you know, pricing and weaving this government at many levels. and we're hoping we will be winning in that regard. but yet, load of desperate attempts to make sure that it's really affordable. and just the odd when you, there isn't, especially in livingston, these categories that you might want to take advantage of. whereby even with the lowest possible budget, just to be able to experience some of the things leading that you know, has to offer ok. so you think you have plans in place to make it to make it more

affordable and was just able to the, to the yes yes. with around. i mean, if there's anything that africans can learn from leaving more of tourism, what does your child efficiently just how you are able to generate more employment opportunities for young people towards the for us comes natural because when you talk about torrie, this is more like you know more of the hosting, so i think it's a natural advantage that we do have, you know, the one for the people themselves that can really be experienced from the typical setup of 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 are sharing, you know, the experiences, interruptions that we have and everything else viewed around that. so it's really the personality that we do odd 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 what i 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 days in related businesses. thank you so much. you're very welcome . love any you gotten back key lesson, that's a young tourist company learned. what's the diversified that customer base due to covey 19? well remember, over 900 post restrictions that limited international tourism. now,

this local company has turned to your local tourist 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 floats a renew hotspots for africa. the young generation of travelers. ah, we are doing a great 100. you can imagine buddy, it's all the way o. please young folk loved the address in a rush. they want to enjoy nature, the thing which we enjoy it their way achilles while thank you for making me not about to gander. who were faking old that you would come to the re, from 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 de la la la, you know, beautifully. these guys need to trust job 100 percent. it's a life changing experience. yes, it can help to build momentum in them. it can help to buell strengths because this is like conquering one of the fears that you have in your life. doing

this is like your being more brave, she 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 have been in a 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 comes in so that you can convince someone to come and enjoy your sub job. so before the curb is

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 and duncan, i love our hobby and excited they are. hopefully, we can all get a chance to enjoy something i've beautiful as back in our country. now the most i mara is.
