In Harare’s bustling streets, a new ride is making waves, and it’s driven by one of Zimbabwe’s youngest innovators. Tinotenda Tungwarara, CEO of Tap & Go, is not just running a fleet of over 60 modern vehicles, she is steering a vision where youth, technology, and safety converge to transform urban transport. Tap & Go is more than a ride-hailing service, it is a platform where young drivers find opportunity, passengers find reliability, and the digital economy finds momentum. Tinotenda has repeatedly called on Zimbabwean youth to harness their skills, be bold in business, and contribute to building an economy driven by innovation and ambition, proving that progress is not just about policy, but about active participation by a new generation.
The service itself sets a high standard. Every vehicle is carefully maintained, equipped with satellite internet, WiFi, and charging points, while the mobile app allows users to book rides in real time, track their trips, and pay cashlessly. Drivers are trained, vetted, and monitored, reflecting a commitment to safety that stands out in a sector often criticized for inconsistency. For passengers, Tap & Go is a blend of convenience, reliability, and reassurance, showing how technology can make everyday commutes smoother and safer.
