Go yellow and go out for Tourism Month
COMMUNITY TOURISM KwaZulu-Natal is calling on everyone in the province to show their support for Tourism Month by wearing a yellow T-shirt every Friday this month.
Ndabo Khoza, CEO for Tourism KwaZulu-Natal, encouraged people to get out and explore our beautiful province.
“Whether it’s a quick weekend break, a fun day trip, or perhaps an extended stay around Heritage Day, we want people to re-charge in KwaZulu-Natal.”
