Gallivant Africa continues to do its part in supporting Africa’s wild travel industry through an initiative to keep spirits up as everyone practices social distancing with a new Instagram Live show called, “GallivantLive”.
Many people work behind the scenes to provide an outstanding experience for domestic and international travellers alike. Like countless industries hard-hit by the pandemic, Africa’s travel industry is no exception. Gallivant Live is an opportunity for fans and followers to get to know the people who are working tirelessly to welcome travellers back to the destination!
The 30min interview, hosted live on Gallivant Africa’s Instagram page will be a hilarious conversation about life, travel and what’s next after COVID-19. It could be cheesy, catchy but there is plenty to hope for as the conversation is a light-hearted look the future of travel in Africa.
