04/07/2024

In order to remain competitive, it is imperative for destinations to showcase their sustainable tourism practices. This was a key insight gained at Experience Africa 2024, hosted in London this past week.

The event saw its largest number of buyers and exhibitors since its inception in 2018, with 266 buyers from 20 countries present for the duration of the programme.

South Africa remains firmly on the UK travel bucket list; however, it was noted that the rising cost of flights for the upcoming peak season risks less family and multi-generational travel.

Wesgro is confident that the UK will remain a top source market for Cape Town and the Western Cape, with new low-cost airline, Norse Airways, commencing in October.

UK visitors hold the promise of longer stays, with UK travel agents reporting a rise in bookings of up to as long as three weeks – versus the traditional 14 days - as travellers continue to capitalise on the freedom of remote work.

Bringing together African countries and stakeholders to showcase the diverse cultures, tourism opportunities, and business potential of the continent, the event shone a spotlight on Africa as a premier travel destination, encouraging travellers to explore the continent beyond the stereotypes.

02/07/2024

With the objective of promoting and positioning Cape Town and the Western Cape as a premier tourism destination for leisure and business travellers within the domestic and regional markets, Wesgro’s Tourism Team participated in the Africa Showcase South Africa Roadshow from 10 – 13 June.

The roadshow was a week-long series of trade events held in Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town, where the team engaged in one-on-one engagements with 140 travel buyers, which consisted of travel agents, tour operators, travel consultants and professional conference organisers.

On Show Solutions, the roadshow organisers stated: “South Africa represents a largely untapped yet lucrative source market. Regional and domestic travel are pivotal for sustaining tourism businesses, and there is a growing interest among South African travellers to explore more of South Africa, mainland Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands.

The impressive line-up of exhibitors showcased experiences and offers in 15 African countries including: Botswana, Egypt, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.”

Wesgro has wrapped up a week on the road with SA Tourism and private tourism operators, travelling through Ireland and the UK to promote Cape town and the Western Cape.

Starting in Cork, continuing onto Edinburgh, Newcastle, and wrapping up in Reading the week provided promising meetings with over 200 agents - all passionate about selling South Africa as a top travel destination.

What makes South Africa stand out? From our direct flights to the UK to favourable exchange rates providing affordable bucket list experiences - Cape Town and the Western Cape is a world class tourism destination which has something for everyone to experience, explore and enjoy.

We believe the roadshow efforts will see us welcoming old friends along with new visitors from Ireland and the UK.

The Cape Town Cycle Tour enters its 46th year in 2024 as one of the city’s premier sporting and social events. Traditionally the race attracts 30 000 riders to the region annually, as well as many friends and family in support.

The successful annual staging of the Cycle Tour enables the Cape Town Cycle Tour Trust to source funds for its two beneficiaries, the Pedal Power Association and Rotary Club of Claremont, which apply the surplus proceeds for social upliftment projects and the development and promotion of cycling and safe cycling initiatives.

Widely regarded as one of the most scenic mass-start bike races in the world, the classic 109km route circles the greater peninsula, starting in the shadow of Table Mountain, passing the pristine beaches, cooling forests and verdant vineyards for which the city is famous, before finishing along the Atlantic Seaboard’s shimmering ocean in Green Point. Since 2023, the complementary 42km route has given a wider range of riders the opportunity to be part of Africa’s biggest cycling party. The 2024 Cape Town Cycle Tour will be held on Sunday, 10 March 2024. For more information visit www.capetowncycletour.com

Under the theme "Proactive Destination Safety Readiness for the Upcoming Season," the quarterly RTO Forum in the Western Cape brought together regional and local tourism offices in the vibrant setting of the Mother City. This knowledge-sharing forum provides a crucial platform for the collaborative efforts of key stakeholders, and ensures that linkages between efforts of all entities within the tourism eco-system are maintained.

Kicking off the programme, Lisa-Ann Hosking, Chief Destination Management Officer at Cape Town Tourism, gave an engaging presentation on tourism safety initiatives within the city, resulting in a robust discussion. Thereafter, Birdlife SA, a recipient of the G4J Tourism Challenge Fund, presented on their plan to roll out the avitourism project together with the Garden Route and Klein Karoo. This form of tourism has good growth potential and ensures that we protect our natural assets and resources, and focus on the destination’s sustainable tourism offerings.

Participants enjoyed an excursion on the Cape Wheel, treating them to panoramic views of Table Mountain, Robben Island, the Cape Town City skyline, the Paarl Mountains, and the Cape Town Stadium. CitySightseeing treated the delegates to a two-and-a-half-hour Mini Peninsula tour aboard a City Sightseeing topless bus - a must-do when visiting Cape Town!
