Since its inception in 2008, Wakanow, our parent company, has proudly pioneered the role of Nigeria's first Online Tour Operator and Travel Arranger to bridge the gap and eliminate the barriers and inefficiencies facing the travel industry. Two years after its launch, the site fully took off around the period of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, affording it the much needed early kick-off momentum.

In its 15 years of existence, Wakanow has grown to become one of Africa’s leading travel booking portals, with physical presence in Nigeria, UAE, Ghana, UK, Liberia, Sierra-Leone, Gambia, Togo, Cote d'ivoire, Benin Republic, Cameroon and aggressive plans to open new offices across Africa. With convenient payment systems, excellent customer service and technology anchored at the center of its processes, Wakanow has expanded the frontiers of travel to become a force to be reckoned with in the African travel landscape. In 2013, Wakanow was recognized as one of the fastest growing online companies in Nigeria by the Tony Elumelu Foundation in alliance with the All-world Networks based in the UK.

With the acquisition of Oya.com, a local transport ticketing online agency and the commencement of specialized services to corporate and high-end clients, Wakanow has once again raised the bar in tapping into the wealth of opportunities that exist in Africa’s travel business landscape and boosting the profile of the industry in general.
