There have been figures that SA’s tourism numbers will reach 2019 levels by 2026. However, through their current numbers, they believe they can reach their goals by next year.
“On the domestic side, we are cruising. Domestic overnight trips from January to September 2022 trips reached 23.9 million trips,” Sisulu said.As there were plenty of indicators that South Africa’s tourism had bounced back from the Covid-19 pandemic and the reverberation of that, tackling variants, travel restrictions and red lists, Sisulu boldly claimed the pandemic was officially over.
Top contributors to the increased number of travellers were wildlife viewing, restaurants , festivals, events and concerts, the minister revealed. The campaign is pushing for more local travel, and despite South Africans “saving” tourism through its darkest times, the department has goals to supersede locations such as Mauritius.
More people are realising that travelling within the country can be affordable. About 600 small and medium businesses will be involved in the activation of the summer campaign, creating about 1 600 jobs.This year more than ever, we have summer. So, go out and have fun!
