Africa is the desired hot spot for Chinese tourists this
winter.
Package tours to Africa from Beijing's major travel agencies
during Spring Festival are booked up; although most group tours for a one or two
week-trip would set you back 15-25,000 yuan per person.
With Southeast Asian countries hit by the tsunamis and Europe's
cold winter an unattractive prospect, more and more Chinese tourists are heading
for Africa.
Egypt, South Africa and Morocco are the traditional
destinations and last December another eight African countries opened to Chinese
tourists. They are Kenya, Ethiopia, the Seychelles, Mauritius, Zambia, Tanzania,
Zimbabwe and Tunisia.
