Here’s a quick rundown on what’s happening in the tourism industry from around the world:
South African city wins award again
Cape Town, also called the Mother City, was again voted as Favourite City of 2013 at the annual Telegraph Travel Awards held in London. This is the second win for Cape Town in the same category.
According to Enver Duminy, the CEO of Cape Town Tourism, “Cape Town has received this award for two consecutive years now, and this clearly reflects the UK visitors’ desire to travel to Cape Town.”
The award given to Cape Town comes in the heels of a third place finish in the recently concluded Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2014.

“Fiji, Where Happiness Finds You”
The tourism board in Fiji have come up with a tourism advertising plan that will center on the slogan “Fiji, Where Happiness Finds You.”
The 2014 marketing plan was unveiled to the local tourism operators and representatives and includes television advertisements, as well as new features on the Tourism Fiji website.
“When we present Fiji as being a place ‘where happiness finds you’, it is not a slogan. It is a reality. Every single Fijian has an innate sense of hospitality and takes real enjoyment from sharing the beauty of our Fijian home with our visitors. We live this new brand and are looking forward to sharing it with many more international visitors in 2014,” said Elizabeth Powell, Tourism Fiji’s interim chair of the board.
