The World Tourism Organization released its 2006 results. Which region has tourists flocking to visit?
According to a recent report, the WTO cites a record number of 842 million international tourists for 2006 – that’s a growth rate of about 4.5 percent. Africa boasts the largest growth rate of 8.1 percent.
The reason? The report notes that sub-Saharan Africa is seen as being far away from the centre of tension and unrest. Other draws include the wildlife and natural resources.
The weakest growth rate was in the Americas.
