Celebrating Tourism & Heritage in South Africa
September is a special month for South Africa – it is both Tourism Month and Heritage Month, a time to celebrate our nation’s rich diversity, vibrant culture, and breathtaking landscapes. Tourism Month highlights the importance of the tourism sector to South Africa’s economy and communities. It is a time to reflect on the value of tourism, explore new destinations, and recognise how travel connects people to places and cultures. The month-long celebration includes themed activities, events, and initiatives designed to showcase the very best of South Africa as a world-class tourism destination. Tourism Month aligns with the global World Tourism Day celebrations, reinforcing the role of tourism in sustainable growth, job creation, and cultural exchange.
Heritage Month complements this by encouraging us to explore our nation’s cultural and natural heritage. National parks, archaeological sites, rock art, and protected landscapes serve as custodians of our shared heritage, safeguarding these treasures for current and future generations. By visiting these sites, supporting local communities, and engaging with diverse cultures, we contribute to the preservation and promotion of South Africa’s unique identity.
At Africa Dawn Portfolio, we are proud to support Tourism Month and Heritage Month by representing a curated portfolio of destinations that showcase the best of South Africa, including iconic destinations like Kruger National Park, the Garden Route, and Cape Town: Kambaku Lodges, Kambaku @ Sea, Tingana Collection, and Shell Lodges.
