“Tourism performance in SA is a continued source of national productivity and pride. We are seeing an overall strong demand for bookings into South Africa for the 2019 year, and we are confident that we will see further growth in 2020 for our inbound tourist numbers,” says Michael Tollman, CEO of Cullinan Holdaings Ltd.


South Africa is rated as Africa's top destination for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE), forming an important sector to the tourism industry.

With increased flight access and some unusual venues, South Africa provides an attractive host of opportunities. Such venues include the historical Constitution Hill and the contemporary Zeitz Mocca Museum in Cape Town.

There is a large market of travellers who enter the country for business – around 800 000 annually. South Africa is ranked as the best MICE destination on the continent, followed by Morocco and Rwanda. Studies show that a third of those who are introduced to the country on a business trip later return on a leisure trip. There are also delegates who extend their stay by a few extra days in order to explore the country once business has been taken care of.

People are attracted to the country not only for its infrastructure and venues, but for the culture, nature and wildlife too, making it a world-class MICE destination.
