ZVOKUBVA MUNYAYA INO:
- “The Two Oceans Marathon did contribute to a significant influx of visitors to the Mother City over the Easter weekend, but judging from feedback from the industry, we have not experienced the expected boom in inbound or domestic tourism over the last ten days,” said Cape Town Tourism CEO, Mariette du Toit-Helmbold.
- “Cape Town Tourism's strategy for the year ahead is to invest significantly in domestic tourism marketing and to position Cape Town as a unique, inspiring, and great value destination for local travelers all year-round, especially in off-peak periods, of which Easter traditionally marks the start.
- As always, the majority of visitors at this time of the year were South Africans making use of the school holidays in early April and the public holidays at the end of April,” Lehmann continued.
