By the end of last year, Andrew Gatera’s tour and travel business, G-Step tours was on its deathbed; bookings and inquiries dried up as the tourism sector crumbled under the uncertainties of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Gatera studied in China for seven years and is fluent in Mandarin. He came back home in 2017 but started a tour and travel business in 2018 and exclusively targeted the Chinese market. Unfortunately, China, where Covid-19 was first reported, shut down in early 2020, thus hitting his business much earlier than others in the country.
