These are the Most Visited African Countries By International Tourists

Most people who say they want to visit Africa mean they want to go on safari. A small number mean the pyramids.

Almost none of them can tell you much about where they would go in #Ghana, or why Rwanda has quietly become one of the most discussed destinations on the continent.

The #tourism map of Africa is heavily concentrated, and this chart shows exactly where.

Morocco leads with 17.4 million visitors. #Egypt follows at 15.7 million. #Tunisia at 10.25 million.

Three North African countries accounting for the overwhelming majority of the continent’s international arrivals.

The Mediterranean proximity helps. So does the infrastructure, the marketing budgets, and decades of being on European holiday itineraries.
