Our Story

WHERE PASSION MEETS PURPOSE

The story of Afriluxe Destination Management began with a simple yet powerful idea: let’s empower Africa to support Africa. When entrepreneur Andrew Dumbuya approached fellow visionary Christina W Kimball about launching businesses that could help sustain Oasis Living, an orphanage in Sierra Leone supported by their U.S.-based church, tourism wasn’t the original focus. Initially exploring ventures in food and agriculture, a research trip to Sierra Leone and Christina’s suggestion to consider travel changed everything.

As a travel advisor deeply moved by her time in Africa, Christina proposed a tourism venture that could honor the continent and support its people.

The idea resonated. Andrew’s purpose-driven leadership and Christina’s strategic passion for travel formed the foundation of Afriluxe Destination Management.

Our Purpose

MORE THAN TRAVEL. WE CREATE CONNECTION.

Together, Andrew and Christina, co-founded a premium B2B destination management company committed to co-creating meaningful African travel experiences for travel advisors and their clients - with a portion of profits going directly to support Oasis Living. This is Africa DMC isn't just a DMC, it’s a declaration of beauty, culture, and truth. It’s about replacing stereotypes with soul-stirring reality.

Where the phrase “This is Africa” has often been used with frustration or resignation, we reclaim it, with reverence, as our campaign: THIS is Africa: brilliant, diverse, majestic, and unforgettable.

Our mission is simple: to provide travel experiences that build bridges - between people, places, and perspectives. We aim to empower travel advisors with tools and partnerships that spark joy, deepen understanding, and leave lasting impressions.
