The Association for Promotion of Tourism to Africa

Africa is a vast continent and for travel agents who find it overwhelming, who want to learn more about selling it, or to stay in touch and in the know, there is APTA-the Association for Promotion of Tourism to Africa.  APTA promotes tourism to Africa and her islands through the education of its members. www.apta.biz

APTA is powered by a passionate group of travel professionals bringing together African tourist boards, airlines, operators, hotels, camps, lodges, retail travel agents and Africa specialists in America.  A volunteer, nonprofit organization, APTA creates a platform for buyers and sellers to connect, contribute, and conduct business. In cities throughout the country local chapters host meetings, social events and mini trade shows and create networking opportunities where experienced Africa specialists share their expertise, ideas, and information with retail agents looking to sell what may initially seem to be the most daunting destinations. Through dinner meetings, trade events, and the newsletter and website, APTA provides retail travel agents with the tools, contacts and confidence to sell Africa and her islands.
