The Travel Media Network of Zimbabwe has extended to East Africa and engaged Tanzanian media practitioners who are expected in the country soon, the Sunday Mail reported.

The network is a media forum comprised of local media practitioners and stakeholders, specifically designed to promote media familiarization with the country's prime tourist sites.

A committee member of the network based in Tanzania said they had managed to engage the Tanzanian journalists with a view to embarking on a familiarization tour of the country soon as a part of a marketing campaign.

The Zimbabwean government has embarked on extensive campaigns. Last week, a delegation of Russian journalists came for a familiarization tour. The country has also hosted media practitioners from Malaysia, South Korea and France.
