South African Tourism North America's First-Ever Virtual Roadshow Recap & New Resource Tool!

South African Tourism North America's First-Ever Virtual Roadshow Recap & New Resource Tool!

South African Tourism North America recently hosted its inaugural virtual roadshow, connecting hundreds of American and Canadian travel advisors with some of South Africa's top DMCs, tour operators, hotels, lodges, and unique experiences. Over three dynamic days, advisors were able to engage in personalized, one-on-one meetings, as well as real-time interactions via chat and video, creating meaningful connections and new business opportunities.

If you missed the event, that's not a problem. We also introduced a new tool to keep the momentum going: The South Africa Resource Directory. This searchable database, now available on the South Africa portal at InsiderTravelReport.com, is your ultimate guide to finding trusted industry partners. From DMCs and tour operators to one-of-a-kind hotels and unique South African experiences, this resource will streamline your planning process and help you offer even more exciting, tailor-made options for your clients. Start exploring the directory today.

Our partners from the Provincial tourism authorities developed highly rated destination training sessions that were a hit with advisors at the virtual show. We wanted to share these sessions with you below, so you can enhance your destination knowledge and better serve your clients.
