WHY SHOULD
I TRAVEL WITH
WADEMBA?

We provide unique cultural travel experiences to African and African diaspora destinations that go beyond sightseeing. Many of our locations don't have fully developed tourist infrastructure, which means they're less traveled and offer more authentic cultural connections. It's important to make sure our tours are the right fit before you book.

Our tours are perfect for you if:

  • You're open-minded, flexible, and adaptable to new experiences

  • You enjoy spending time with a small group of like-minded travelers

  • You're interested in learning about the real history and culture of our destinations—and helping dispel the myths

  • You want to slow down for a week of genuine cultural connection and personal growth

WHY SHOULDN’T
I TRAVEL WITH
WADEMBA?

We're the first to admit our tours aren't for everyone.
They may not be right for you if:

  • You want vibrant nightlife like clubs and bars

  • You only stay in 5-star hotels or expect luxury accommodations

  • You can't walk on uneven terrain

  • You're sensitive to high temperatures and direct sunlight during activities

Still not sure? Reach out to us to learn more and decide what’s best for you.

DIETARY RESTRICTIONS?
