According to the latest South African Tourism’s survey we are ranked #1 in most visits to a province.
This is a great achievement and a reflection of the diversity offered by our province. It is testament to our service excellence and our resilience to carry on regardless of the challenges.
The 40% growth from 2019 to 2020 indicates that 50% of our visitors are travelling on business and holiday. We are successfully converting VFRs (visiting friends and relatives) to business and holiday visitors and/ or attracting quality visitors. Most importantly the travel spend in the EC has doubled.
We will continue to effectively manage all available resources to keep EC as a top-of-mind destination to elevate the tourism sector.            Â
ECPTA is proud to partner with all our stakeholders to maintain the positive momentum of this great achievement.
