South African travel technology company, Tourism Radio, has announced its partnership with luxury travel company, Abercrombie & Kent (A&K).
The Cape Town-based leader in audio travel technology will provide detailed audio tours to passengers on A&K cruise liners visiting the Angolan capital, Luanda.
“The uniqueness of our technology is in its ability to seamlessly arrange thousands of audio clips and organise them into a coherent dialogue, based on location. This move into Angola will see Tourism Radio represented in three countries on the West African coast (including South Africa and Namibia), “ said Mark Allewell Tourism Radio CEO.
“Previously, the main challenge to operating in Angola was the lack of qualified and English-speaking guides, however we have now found a way to successfully meet this challenge in the short- to mid-term,” said, Chris Owen-Collett, A&K representative, and Vice President for Worldwide Cruise Operations at Akorn Destination Management.
He said A&K had been actively developing Luanda as a viable port of call for cruise liners, and its partnership with Tourism Radio would help open up the country for well-travelled cruisers.
