 Tourism
is Cape Town's lifeblood, and service standards reflect the
city's professional commitment to the hospitality industry.

these high quality standards in visitor management, bringing
to bear the RAI Group's extensive international experience
in all facets of the facility's operation. Expect the best

and a motivated and helpful convention and visitors bureau.
Most notably, local and provincial government, the convention
centre funders, are closely involved and willing to assist
wherever possible. Reasonable customs requirements, and public
safety officials trained in hospitality management, reflect
a society that is deeply serious about its national and international
visitors.
