World Travel Awards (WTA), the “Oscars of the travel industry”, has announced plans to host its first ceremony in Kenya, reflecting the African nation’s continuing evolution into a world-class tourism destination.

WTA’s Africa & Indian Ocean Ceremony 2012 will take place in Nairobi on 26th September 2012, with the most important decision-makers in the region’s travel and tourism sector scheduled to attend. The event will be co-hosted alongside the Africa Hotel Investment Forum (AHIF), a two-day conference (25-26th September) that will showcase the hospitality investment potential of Africa’s fastest growing nations. Bringing these two events together is a showcase of African tourism, where industry leaders from Africa and the Indian Ocean islands will be honoured for their commitment to quality and environmental best practices. Having these two events together underlines the importance and influence of Africa on world tourism.

The Rickshaw Group is thrilled to be nominated by the WTA as one of East Africa’s leading travel management companies.
