Commitment to Tourists Satisfaction
While South Africa strives to deliver excellence, the Department of Tourism recognizes that expectations may sometimes fall short. To address this, an automated complaints management system has been introduced. Tourists may conveniently lodge complaints online through the secure link:

, or by scanning the below provided QR code and lodge the complaint at the comfort of their hotel room or home. The system immediately acknowledges receipt of the complaint and issues a reference number. Tourists also receive real-time updates on the status of their complaint.
