On Monday night the World Travel awards were held at the ICC in Durban, Kwa-Zulu Natal. Since they were established in 1993 the awards have constituted the most prestigious tourism rating the planet has to offer. It was at this prestigious ceremony that Cape Town was selected as Africa’s premier tourist traction.
