“There is a real opportunity to encourage visitors to stay longer, explore more and experience the diversity of our region,” says Enver Duminy, CEO of Cape Town Tourism.

Annemie Liebenberg, CEO of Visit Stellenbosch, says longer stays can generate more visitor spend, accommodation nights and opportunities for businesses across the tourism value chain.
