For South Africa as a travel destination and soccer-loving country, hosting the 2010 Soccer World Cup Finals is momentous and the focus is on ticket sales and accommodation establishments, safety and security, entertainment and convenience. Initiated for the 1st time in 1920 to come to Africa, it is now finally taking place here in RSA between June 11 and July 11, 2010. South Africa is developing infrastructure and locals are preparing to sensitize for large numbers of foreigners of diverse backgrounds. Transport, holiday accommodation and hospitality, media and other public/private institutions are all going through a growth spurt and the South African Police is constantly coming up with safety and security ideas targeted specifically at keeping the tourist safe. Plans are in place to reawaken pride in culture, authenticity and all things African. The focus will be on traditional music, arts & crafts, fashion, cuisine, dance, architecture, photography, cinema & theatre.

Not only will 2010 benefit our holiday accommodation establishments, but we hope to impress the world for future tourism too. South Africa is paying attention to details in safety and security, infrastructure and hospitality.

This opportunity given to us by FIFA will unite all of Africa. It will serve as link between ethnic groups and because of its language of rules and codes of conduct; it brings together a worldly connection. Soccer could blur the borders of nationalities, races and ethnic groups. What is more, Africa will for the first time ever, have 6 teams in the World Cup Finals!

Above all, having such high testosterone levels, passion and emotion on South African home turf, makes for an exotic and intense experience!

Visiting South Africa for the FIFA 2010 World Cup will give you the perfect opportunity to see much of South Africa's travel destinations and each host city's attractions as they have a lot to offer. Your accommodation establishment is a great place to ask about activities and tourism hot spots, safe transport suggestions and general advice.
