Hi everyone, I need your ATTENTION here for something pretty IMPORTANT and URGENT my sister who is visiting Zanzibar since last week, yesterday has been SEXUALLY ASSAULTED and BEATEN by a man she does not know. Her passport has been stolen as well. If someone could advise or assist we would be grateful. I know this is not align with the topic of the group, but since some of us have connections with Zanzibar, I am asking for help here. Ben, Mauritius.

I am planning to host a small group tour (6-8 people) as a part of my trip to Kenya in December this year. I'm wondering if there is some way to make this work for the advantage of Homebase Africa and the tourists I'm bringing? This is a part of what I already do and want to do... I have hosted multiple international tours to Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Crete, Cyprus, etc… so I'm generally familiar with how to organize a large group tour. I want this to facilitate the dreams of my family, friends, and associates towards a life on the Continent. I'm thinking if we could give a small group a good tourist experience, off the beaten path, focused on local life, I have friends that would really be into that. They probably aren't ready and up to speed on moving to Africa, but this will most likely inspire that aspiration. I just want to make it the best possible experience for them and thought you all would be a good place to start in terms of connections to the best value and experience for tour guides and experiences on the ground. I would love, somehow, to make it a mutually beneficial venture. I truly don't want anything out of it other than Homebase Africa and my friends being benefited. I'm getting out of this everything I need already. I think this tour is very doable. Let me know what you all think and if you have any recommendations for vendors (only 5 star service recommendations), HA partners, and community members I could start partnering with on this tour in December. I can't think of a better place to recommend all my friends to start if they dream of a home in Africa. The dream is sooooo close. It's right at the tips of our fingers! Me and my people are coming!!!! Thanks! 🤟🏽🙏🏽✊🏽👊🏽

I wish you all a great new year 2026 in health, happiness and success! As I will start my first STR this year I’m reaching out to ask for any advise. I’m looking at March 2026 to go live. What can I do already now on the differ platforms? Cheers Nana Yaa

Good day! Does anyone in this community have an Airbnb in or near Accra or Aburi? I would like to book a few nights in one of Homebase Africa communities places for an upcoming trip to Ghana in March 2026. I want to stay for 3 weeks in Aburi and 5-7 days on Accra. Thanks!

@Weyni Tesfai and @Marvin Greiffenberg is there any “business intelligence” available on up and coming tourist/ visitor destinations to watch in Africa? It might help those looking to make a decision on where to kick off. For those not familiar with doing business on the continent, you may want to check out the World Bank’s “Ease of Doing Business”…. and take it all with a pinch of salt.
