So I often get a lot of pamphlets on Harare roads, a lot of them everyday. So yesterday I got one from Chengeta Safari Lodge. Chengeta Safari lodge is located near Selous , close to 90 kilometres from Harare.

My first visit to this holiday resort was in 2006 when I was facilitating a company strategic workshop for a local insurance firm. A very good family friendly place where you can expect to enjoy a lot of outdoor activities such as a game drive, elephant and horse rides, canoeing and fishing, Its a must visit place if you live in Harare and I do recommend the place to the diasporan community.

So Chengeta has been doing some vigorous marketing and promotion and if you are a Harare motorist, chances are high that you may have received one of their pamphlets. So what is new in the pamphlets shared yesterday?

Airplane Service

So a new service has been introduced and this is why we are giving them an innovation award! A small plane service has been introduced for the festive season and it costs you $125 plus $15 airport taxes bringing the total to $140 ( a minimum of 4 passengers required ). So as families-you can combine resources and enjoy traveling to this place. I have not been there in 10 years and may not be aware of the latest developments there but from the photos that I got, looks like a lot is happening there.

To the diasporan community-try Chengeta Safari lodge this time, either drive or charter a plane! Now the big question is…will the plane service work and be a profitable venture for Chengeta Safari Lodge?Only time will tell whether this is going to be a success or not. We are however confident that they have done detailed capital investment appraisal which informed their decision making.
