About Kiami
Kiami is a tourism-tech platform built for travelers who want to explore Africa on a budget — and for local tour operators who want more bookings without high aquisition costs.
We believe that travel should be accessible, local businesses should thrive, and Africa’s beauty should be affordable to experience.
What We Do
We make it simple:
-
You tell us your destination, budget, and group size.
-
Tour operators across Africa submit offers that match your criteria.
-
You choose the best experience — and book.
It’s travel the way it should be: direct, affordable, and flexible.
Our mission
To connect African tour operators with global travelers looking for affordable, authentic, and unforgettable travel experiences — while supporting local economies.
Our vision
To redefine African travel by making it more accessible, affordable, and community-driven — where local operators thrive, and global travelers experience the richness of Africa without breaking the bank.
We imagine a future where:
-
Budget is no longer a barrier to experiencing Africa’s beauty
-
Local businesses benefit directly from tourism
-
Travelers connect with cultures, not just destinations
At Kiami, we believe travel should belong to everyone — and that Africa deserves a smarter, fairer, and more inclusive travel system.
Our story
Kiami was born from a simple observation:
Our founder, Fernando Antonio, saw both sides. Engaging with tour operators and being an innovator in the tech space, he realized that platforms like Booking.com often overlook smaller, local businesses — and that travelers on a budget don’t have flexible, fair options.
What started as an idea in South Africa is now expanding across East and Southern Africa — powered by a small team, big dreams, and the belief that Africa should be explored, affordably and authentically.
Today, Kiami connects the world to Africa — one affordable, authentic experience at a time.
