Get Africa Travel builds personalised itineraries in minutes with Wetu
For Kanandree Pather, Product Manager at Get Africa Travel, travel is personal – but her superpower is process. With over eight years in travel operations, she helps design bespoke experiences for Norwegian and Swedish travellers seeking Africa’s most authentic corners. It’s a role that demands creativity, cultural sensitivity, and efficiency.
“We’re a small, agile team working with both B2B and B2C markets. Every booking is unique. Every itinerary is different. And for years, that meant doing everything manually,” she recalls.
When every itinerary felt like starting from scratch
Before Wetu, itinerary building at Get Africa Travel was Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and copying and pasting images and website links.
Not only was the manual work time-consuming, it was draining resources that could have been spent growing the business or nurturing client relationships. When Wetu was introduced as a potential solution, Kanandree was quick to jump in.
“I tested it for a day or two and was totally blown away. Itinerary creation went from hours to minutes. Wetu made us look professional. It made us faster. It made us more competitive.”
Scaling impact with speed
With Wetu handling the heavy lifting, reducing their itinerary creation time by 90%, Kanandree and her team have space to focus on what matters most: client service, relationship-building, and winning more business.
“We’ve gone from just surviving the workload to thriving in it. Our response time is faster. Our quotes go out quicker – often same-day. And because of that, our repeat business stays strong.”
Empowering the people behind the product
As Product Manager, Kanandree’s eye is always on improvement. That’s why she’s particularly excited about Wetu’s Product Manager feature.
She’s even trained her team to take ownership of quality control, contacting suppliers directly when listings need a refresh. It’s a proactive approach that supports not only Get Africa’s reputation, but also helps elevate the content quality on Wetu for everyone.
The perfect companion for tailor-made travel: TravelKey
Just when Get Africa Travel thought their client experience couldn’t get more personalised or professional, they started using TravelKey – a travel app designed for travellers, but embraced by the pros.
“TravelKey is probably the best tool. Everyone uses their phones when they travel, and it’s just so convenient. Even for us – if we go on a company trip, it goes into Wetu.”
From age six to sixty, travellers love having their entire trip in a sleek mobile itinerary. Maps, images, daily details – all available offline.
Why it matters now
Kanandree’s story is a reminder that modern travel businesses need more than passion – they need platforms that empower teams to work smart and scale impact.
“It’s not just about saving time – it’s about using that time better. For us, that means better service, stronger relationships, and a business that’s always moving forward.”
