The COVID19 pandemic has severely impacted the tourism industry in South Africa, with many businesses struggling to stay open. As a result, the Green Tourism Incentive Programme (GTIP) has been established to support small and mediumsized tourism enterprises to promote sustainable tourism practices.
Cape Town has emerged as a leading global tourist destination, known for its stunning natural beauty, rich culture, and vibrant atmosphere. The city has been nominated across nine categories for the World Travel Awards Africa Region 2023, which are considered the gold standard for the travel and tourism industry. These nominations bring global attention to the local destinations, attractions, and operators, and winning these accolades will attract more tourists to Cape Town, ultimately contributing to the economic growth of the region.
