ALL IN ONE
There are many different portals and booking sites out there, but all of them are developed elsewhere in the world and none of them are specifically targeted to the unique tourism products that Africa has to offer. With the TiA website we have created a one-stop website, which encompasses the vibrant and diverse tourism sector in Africa and at the same time offers extensive modern online booking capabilities for all kinds of tourism suppliers in Africa.
General Features ofTiA
We're from here
TiA is developed in Africa (Namibia), by Namibians, with a vested interest in tourism in Africa. Support to tourism suppliers is also local, quick and easily reachable. No need to reach out to support centres in different time zones.
Easy to navigate
Keep it simple! We have designed this website to make it easy to navigate for customers, increasing the chance of bookings and finding the right information in only a few clicks. Added to that TiA is the first website, which encompases all key tourism aspects that Africa so unique. No need to book tourism services elsewhere.
Fully responsive design
TiA has been developed to be future ready. The website is fully resposnsive, which means it looks equally good any any device you use, even on your smart phone. This makes TiA the perfect companion for bookings on-the-go!
My TiA
Registered users can easily navigate through their favourite tourism suppliers, keep track of their bookings and events, manage their own profile, keep informed on preferred Travelers' Forum entries and even apply for published job offerings. All of these functions are organized in an easy to navigate menu under My TiA.
Travel Forum
All our tourism suppliers & partners have full access to our Travel Forum, including to areas of the Forum, which are restricted to the travel trade only. This enables better communication with potential clients and within the tourism sector.
Free of charge for the first two months
Zero costs, zero risk, zero long-term commitment! In an effort to help the tourism industry recover from the devastating impact of Covid, all services offered to tourism suppliers through this website are completely free of charge for the first two month after sign-up. Thereafter commission fees and in some cases subscription fees will be charged, but only for confirmed bookings.
