As the world of sports braces itself for the Fifa World Cup set to take place in Russia next year, many sports fans will be wanting to book their travel tickets ahead of the tournament.
Luckily for East Africans, Bunson Travel Service has received approval from Fifa to sell tickets to fans across Tanzania, Ethiopia and Uganda.
“Fifa hereby confirms its approval of the exclusive appointment of Bunson on the terms set out in the agreement,” reads a letter from Fifa to Bunson Travel Service Managing Director, Julie Scott.
Ms Scott has encouraged fans to book their tickets early.
“Kenyans interested in going to the World Cup should make their bookings early. Otherwise, they will end up paying much more for the tickets as the tournament draws near,” she said.
The Fifa World sales agent will offer fans a variety of ticket options such as tours, hotel bookings and airline bookings.
The 2018 World Cup, which is set to kick-off June 12, will showcase 31 teams from across the globe playing matches in 11 different cities across Russia.
