„What does the clue say? Where are we going?” That’s how our Cape Country Routes Amazing Race kicked off…

4 teams of travel agents from around the world were invited to discover our scenic Routes - West Coast-, Wine-, Whale and R62 - and experience our hidden gems in a fun way road-tripping in Jimny 4x4’s. It was an opportunity to shift perspective and find new, exciting travel experiences for their clients.

Over the last couple of months the entire tourism industry has been holding its breath. There are moments that entices one to think that one can catch a breath of fresh air, but it’s only temporary…no calm, energising and harmonious breathing in-and-out as yet.

While we keep holding our breath, we have that clear goal in front of us, that keeps us going – the goal to rebuild our tourism industry in a responsible, safe, diversified and sustainable manner for a better, and stronger future.
