FAM Trips for Travel Advisors
Experience Africa firsthand.
Then sell it with confidence.
Each FAM Journey
Queen of East Africa FAM Trips are created for travel advisors who want to experience the destinations, properties and signature experiences they recommend to their clients.
Travel with Queen through Uganda, Kenya or Tanzania. Stay in carefully selected properties, inspect more hotels, lodges and camps along the way, see the wildlife and landscapes for yourself — and return home knowing exactly which journeys you can confidently offer.

Why Travel With Queen
Don’t just learn the destination. Experience it.
A Queen FAM is designed around the details that matter when you recommend Africa to a client.
Experience the journey
Travel the routes your clients may travel — the game drives, boats, flights, transfers, meals and signature moments that shape the journey.
Sleep in the product
Stay in selected hotels, safari lodges and camps, so you understand the experience beyond photographs and brochures.
See more properties
Your overnight hotel is only part of it. Selected inspections show you the other hotels, lodges and camps Queen may recommend for different clients, budgets and travel styles.
Understand the routing
See how destinations connect, what a transfer day actually feels like, and where a domestic flight makes an itinerary seamless.
Meet Africa
Where appropriate, meaningful cultural and community experiences introduce you to the people and places behind the destination.
Experience Queen
Above all, experience the level of care your clients can expect when they travel with Queen of East Africa.
The Queen FAM Experience
More than a hotel inspection trip.
Our FAM journeys balance professional product discovery with the experiences that make travellers fall in love with Africa. One morning you may inspect properties and spend the afternoon watching elephants beside a river. Another day begins with a game drive and ends with dinner beneath the African sky.
When your client asks, “What is it really like?” — you answer from experience.
Property Inspections
See where your clients could stay.
Inspections are part of every Queen FAM. You stay at selected properties and, where routing and availability permit, visit more hotels, lodges and camps along the way — so you can compare them and know which suits which traveller.
Properties and inspections are subject to availability and operational considerations.
