ACTRESS Sophia Chapeshamano popularly known as Tasha from Zuba is traveling to Dubai end of April as a guest of Dubai Tourism.
Dubai, a fascinating city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been listed twice in a row as the
Most Popular Destination in the World by the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards for
destinations.
The city which is one of the most sought-after tourist destinations worldwide with its spectacular
skyscrapers, beautiful beaches, and amazing attractions which have received a lot of attention,
was identified based on the quality and quantity of reviews and ratings specific to the award from
travellers on TripAdvisor over the 12 months between November 2021 and October 2022.
Following this, Dubai has turned its eyes to Zambia East Africa, South Africa and other African countries to provide them with the yearly number of tourists visiting the city,” according to a statement.
“Given this, the tourism ministry recently employed the services of South African singer Thabsie and Kenyan celebrity Bahati as tourism ambassadors.”
For Zambia, the talented Sophia is set to play her role as a guest of the touristic hotspot. She is geared to showcase to Zambians through her social media platforms what Dubai has to offer in terms of tourism. She will be doing this through her live updates before, during and after her big visit to Dubai this month.
African ambassadors have been tasked to use their popularity to show Africans what Dubai has to offer through their own eyes courtesy of their individual experiences.
Thabsie and Bahati, who have only just left Dubai with their plus ones are set to engage in a friendly campaign called the “A to Z of Dubai” where they will, letter by letter, convince their followers to visit or revisit Dubai.
” The aim of the campaign is to show potential visitors the vast array of choice available in Dubai from the adventure to the wildlife, to all of the healthcare and the newly available options in business, family and leisure. Initial feedback suggests the campaign could be a big success with target audiences responding very well to celebrity experiences,” the statement read.
