Localized for Indian audiences, this campaign aims to highlight the variety and diversity of experiences that South Africa has to offer, ranging from 3000+ adventure activities to exciting culinary experiences and more, across its nine provinces.
Prior to the pandemic, India was the 8th largest international market for South African Tourism. India remains a core market for South African Tourism globally, and holds much promise in the coming years, especially given that Indian travellers are the international largest consumers of adventure in South Africa.
The campaign – that will be live until 31st March 2022 is slated to have multiple roll-out legs to it, starting with OOH advertising in Mumbai and Delhi. This will be complimented by digital activations across Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, as well as on-ground physical consumer and corporate activations in Mumbai and Delhi.
The campaign is crafted to speak to every type of traveller including millennials, families, solo explorers, active lifestyle seekers and couples. More & More builds on the emotion and spirit of adventure, which is a sentiment unique to every individual.
South African Tourism, Hub Head – Middle East, India and South-East Asia, Neliswa Nkani stated, “Having a constant finger on the pulse of Indian travellers has made us sure of one thing – when on vacation, they want to experience it all! They could be wine connoisseurs one day, and history buffs the next. South Africa is a perfect match since we offer the best of the world in one place. From shark-cage diving and glamping to serene wellness retreats, we want Indian thrill-seekers to keep coming back for More & More.”
“As we re-initiate marketing efforts, we look forward to working more closely with our partners in India and South Africa, towards sustained growth and collaborative recovery,” she continued.
Well-timed with the easing of international travel restrictions in India, the campaign is expected to increase summer outbound traffic to South Africa and contribute to the recovery of the tourism sectors in both countries.
South Africa, which remains open to Indian travellers, is also processing tourist visas on priority to support these travel recovery efforts.
The More & More campaign will be supplemented by robust travel trade engagement in the coming months, starting with South African Tourism’s first physical annual Roadshow post pandemic in March 2022.
