The AfricanMecca Concept

The term AfricanMecca genuinely evolves from a philosophical combination of 2 literal words reflected in our day-to-day operations: the word "Africa" referring to tourism and destination offerings, diversity, people, activities, cultures, and all unique and wonderful opportunities that the African continent has to offer to discerning guests and the word "Mecca" referring to the coming together. AfricanMecca's philosophical concept therefore refers to "The Complete Coming Together Of Africa's Greatest Tourism Offerings From a Native Perspective."

  • Logical Approach: We are driven by the simple fact that is better to give great service the first time around.

  • Leadership In The Industry: You can be ascertained by the fact that we are different from everyone else because we are standard setters; this is evident from our accommodation gauging and standardization system, writings about land, our desire to create an opportunity for guests to review pictures and view online videos of hundreds of accommodations we promote and the resources we create awareness about.

  • Offering Programs That Work: Because we understand Africa and the needs of guests who visit us, our programs are proven, inclusive and open in all regards. It is a fact that no two organizations, services and programs are alike. Having stated all the above, we also know our clients come to Africa because they wish to experience the wildlife, ecology and the related offerings. We offer our clients the strengths and challenges of each destination so that the right program choice is made.
What We Are Not And What We Do Not Do:
  • Not Competing To Offer The Lowest Price And The Cheapest Program: We are not competing to be the lowest priced program provider. Our programs are based on the corresponding actual costs of creating, managing and running a quality focused, efficient, professional and experienced organization. Potential clients who value quality and reliability need to interact with us to experience for themselves what it means to have knowledgeable and "hands on" experienced AfricanMecca destination planners working on their behalf. 90% afore mentioned actually become clients and continue to have AfricanMecca operate their complete program in Africa..

  • Not Mass Tourism: We are an organization that does not engage in Mass Tourism: the act of grouping massive numbers of people purely to fill quotas, vehicles and accommodation room nights. We are a customer focused organization that understands that each visitor to our homeland, be it a single traveler or a group, is a human, a person, and an individual and each of these mentioned personalities comes with their own needs, wants and desires. Because your overall experience in Africa represents the image of our respective countries, we at AfricanMecca are first concerned about your excellence derived from our passion to do things right.

  • We Do Not Cut Corners: AfricanMecca is customer and quality-focused organization. We refuse to compromise the safety, security and comfort of our guests for anything. Just as an example among the many: to maintain quality standard and reliability for our road safaris, our customer care centers use certified vehicle parts; they also thoroughly check and service all vehicles before and after all safari expeditions and other tour trips, with no exceptions.

  • Not Just Another Company Selling Travel To Africa: We are natives, proud to represent our own countries; we have a reason, passion, and motivation to be there for our customers and to do what we do; for these very reasons, our team and the services we offer can never be compared to those of others in the same industry.

  • Not A One Fits All Organization: We intellectually and methodically design, create and organize all our programs independently.

  • Not An Internet Or A Dot Com Booking Agent: We are an organization with physical locations at the addresses mentioned in our contacts. We use Internet technology to nurture a superb, timely and efficient company and services. The results of our services are evident in the communication visitors receive when organizing and arranging their program with us. The results of these efficiencies are a better-priced program, the savings of which are passed on to our customers and agents.
