The once a
year Trade and Travel Fair of "Karibu"is among the most educative
events on issues of tourism and has become a popular thing in East
Africa.
But show displays may not
necessarily reflect the reality of our tourism and hospitality
industry, in fact, local hotel operators need to improve on their
services.
One suggestion though, since the
fair has become a permanent annual event, it is high time permanent
structures are erected at the venue.

It is high
time now that, the organizers of Karibu think of working together
with the Tanzania Tourist Board (TTB) in coming up with a better
programme to make "Karibu" become one of the world’s recognized
travel fairs in the lines of World Travel Mart.
Indeed the fair keeps on improving
as time goes by and is a good opportunity for us to promote our
tourism potentials. |

Karibu Fairs
provide temporary employment for local residents thus improve the
local economy, hand in hand with promoting our tourism industry.
The fairs should however focus on
exposing other undiscovered areas of our country that can be
utilized to boost the industry. |
