EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER.
 WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF URBAN GINGA

Urban Ginga* is a specialist MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Events) and Destination Management
Company based in South Africa, and operated globally.

The term “circumnavigation of the globe” can be used loosely to describe our travel and hospitality experience.
Having travelled to over 70 countries to execute world-class events, our approach is to help you get the most
value possible – matched to your needs and business objectives – with enthusiasm, creativity and determination.

With a true passion for travel, hospitality and exploration, coupled with over 30 years’ business experience within
the MICE and Destination Management industries, we are equipped to tailor-make experiences that will not only
tick all the boxes, but offer the right balance of professionalism, commitment and knowledge to take your
expectations to the next level.

Focused on your priorities, our goal is to deliver the exceptional experiences you want most by providing custom-
designed meeting, event, incentive travel and hospitality solutions, executed with faultless precision and an
uncanny eye for detail to help you unlock the power of your investment.

This is exemplified through our meticulous approach to ensure that each and every tailor-made experience is not
only unforgettable, but offers a return on your investment.

*Ginga (pronounced jin-ja) is rhythm. Ginga is creativity. Ginga is the opposite of boring. It is grace. It is being fluid
and coordinated. IT IS SOUL.

a high level of customer service, and traveller satisfaction.

be what you’re looking for! Our effective and timely approach provides a streamlined end-to-end service to help you manage your
needs for greater efficiency through knowledge, experience and comprehensive completion – on time and on budget.

At Urban Ginga we are passionate about improving people’s performance – about rewarding them for their efforts, and about
achieving great results for our clients. We believe that people perform better when motivated, and that engaged staff improve a
brand. In fact, companies that engage their staff effectively are proven to outperform those that don’t. We believe it, we live it, and
