Start Something Priceless: Boosting South Africa’s Tourism!

--:--
Mastercard and Vinpro, a non-profit company representing close to 2,600 South African wine producers, cellars and industry stakeholders, have partnered to Start Something Priceless and boost domestic and international tourism to three major South African wine tourist destinations located in the heart of the Western Cape Province.

The partnership in collaboration with the South African tourism industry aims to provide Mastercard cardholders with an exclusive experience through a welcome of a picturesque terrace of mountains that the province has to offer, coupled with unique dining experiences at select restaurants, vineyard drives, top-class hotel accommodations, and a place of calm and dreams for travel enthusiasts waiting to delight their palates with different textures from the wine reserve selects, all this available to explore in Constantia, Franschhoek, and Stellenbosch.

The South African tourism industry has been adversely impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in lockdown and travel restrictions.
