The whole trip, one office.

Flights, visa files, holidays and studies abroad, arranged from one counter in Bujumbura.

Airline ticketing

Our main work. Tell us where you are going and when, and we come back with the fare options that actually exist on the day — including the routings other agencies skip because they take an extra call.

  • Economy, premium and business fares
  • Group and family bookings
  • Date changes, refunds and reissues after you fly
  • Payment in Burundian francs at the counter

Getting you on the plane

The ticket, and everything that touches the airport.

  • Airport transfers

    A driver at your gate for the departure, and waiting in arrivals when you land at Melchior Ndadaye. Night flights included.

  • Excess baggage & cargo

    Extra kilos bought ahead at the counter rate instead of the airport rate, and unaccompanied cargo when the bag will not fly with you.

  • Meet & greet, fast-track

    Someone walks you through check-in and immigration. Worth it for elderly travellers, first-time flyers and short connections in Nairobi or Addis.

  • eSIM and roaming data

    Land with working internet instead of hunting for a SIM shop. Installed and tested on your phone before you leave the office.

  • Car with driver

    By the day in Bujumbura, or across the border to Kigali, Bukavu and Kigoma when the drive beats the flight.

  • Hotel booking

    Rooms held with confirmation letters your embassy will accept, from Nairobi transit hotels to long stays in Dubai or Brussels.

Papers and permission

The part that decides whether the ticket is any use to you.

  • Visa assistance

    We list the documents your embassy really asks for, check the file before it goes in, and book the appointment. Schengen, Gulf, East Africa, Asia.

  • Travel insurance

    Cover that satisfies visa officers and actually pays if you fall ill abroad. Certificate issued the same day.

  • Passport files

    First application or renewal: the form filled correctly, photos to the right specification, and the appointment booked so you go once.

  • Entry authorisations

    Electronic entry approvals and the East Africa tourist visa that covers Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda on one permit. The rules change often — we track them.

  • Travel health paperwork

    Which vaccination certificates your destination checks at the border, and where in Bujumbura to get them stamped before you fly.

  • Pay in instalments

    Hold the fare with a deposit and clear the balance before departure. Useful when the ticket lands in the wrong month for your budget.

Trips with more to them

Journeys where the ticket is the smallest part of the job.

  • Student travel

    Admission letter to first lecture: student visa file, the ticket on a student fare, first month of accommodation and someone at the airport when they land.

  • Medical travel

    Nairobi, India, Turkey. Appointment coordination, the medical visa file, tickets for patient and companion, and a room close to the hospital.

  • Pilgrimage groups

    Umrah and church group departures handled as one file: group fares, the visa batch, accommodation and a leader who has done the route before.

  • Corporate & NGO accounts

    Monthly invoicing, one named contact, traveller profiles kept on file, and a number that answers when a flight collapses on a Sunday night.

  • Diaspora ticketing

    Pay from Brussels, Toronto or Nairobi and we issue in Bujumbura for your family here. They collect the ticket at the counter, you get the receipt by email.

  • Safari & inbound

    Lake Tanganyika, Rusizi and the Gitega drum sanctuary for visitors, plus gorilla trekking and Mara safaris booked from this side of the border.

Studying abroad

We take students from Bujumbura through the whole path — working out the course, building the application, preparing the visa file, and getting them to the door of their accommodation.

The student visa, the application and the departure, explained from our office. · 2 min 30
  1. Working out the course

    What you can study with the results you have, where it is taught, and what each route actually leads to.

  2. The application

    The steps and the documents, in the order each institution wants them, with the deadlines written down.

  3. The student visa

    The file built and checked before it is submitted, with the financial and accommodation evidence in the form the consulate expects.

  4. Departure and arrival

    The ticket on a student fare, the first month of accommodation, and someone who answers the phone in your first week.

Where our students go

  • France Paris, Lyon, Lille, Toulouse, Rennes
  • Belgium Brussels
  • Canada Montréal
  • Germany Berlin

Bring these to the first conversation

  • Your results — the diploma and the transcripts, whatever state they are in
  • Your French and English, honestly assessed rather than hoped for
  • Who is paying, and roughly what they can cover each year
  • The intake you are aiming at, so we can tell you if it is still reachable

We prepare and submit the file. No agency decides an admission or a visa, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you something.

NGOs, UN agencies and embassies buy travel by tender rather than over the counter. We bid, and this is what we send.
