The latest Tourism Tattler Newsletter for June 2016

The official travel trade journal of Africa’s premium tourism trade associations

NEWSLETTER

ISSUE 06 – JUNE 2016

This months’ front cover features the awesome Storms River Mouth on South Africa’s breathtaking Garden Route. Explore this untouched playground by kayak, lilo, scuba or snorkel with Untouched Adventures. Read more about Untouched Adventures on pages 05 and 13, and about Adventure Tourism in Africa and South Africa on pages 06-15.

We’ve just launched our dedicated Africa Adventure Travel GeoDirectory locator website, which will ultimately become a one-stop resource for adventure tourism activities throughout Africa.

Understandably this is a massive project that will take time to populate and geo-locate by country, and in this issue we are kicking off with South Africa in collaboration with Dirty Boots. If you want your adventure activity, attraction, safari or accommodation establishment to be listed please pop me an email.

You can read the digital magazine by clicking onto the cover image above, or via any one of the bookshelf links shown below.

The page numbers below have been hyper-linked to download that specific page in PDF file format, while the article title has been hyper-linked to open the blog post in your web browser.

Yours in Tourism,
