The South African Tourism industry is slowly getting back on its feet and the North West province is no exception.

General Manager of Sun City Brett Hoppe says, “I think in a very perverse way, you know Covid led to a rediscovery of South Africa by South Africans and what an exciting thing because we have so many amazing products in South Africa, so many corners of the country that is hidden away with so many niche products.”

The Kruger National Park is fully booked following the past two years of restrictions due to the COVID-19 regulations. The park management is encouraging tourists to book accommodation at lodges near the park because lodges in the park are full.Kruger Park’s head of hospitality Phuti Namethe says they had been fully booked since mid-December.“This time around from the 16 or the 15 of December is our peak season. The whole park is full.

Tourists are warned to be vigilant and more cautious when travelling to the park. The warning follows the killing of the German tourist on the road leading to the park’s Numbi Gate two months ago. Last week, two security guards deployed to patrol the Numbi Gate road were shot and robbed of their service firearms. The two were sitting in their patrol vehicle when the two suspects ambushed them. The victims were rushed to the nearest hospital for medical attention. More security guards have since been deployed on the Numbi Gate road.
