Backpacker / Youth Adventure Network

Backpacker / Youth Adventure Network

The members of the SA Backpacker Industry Association (SABIA) recently voted to de-register their association and for this sector to be represented by SATIC.

 

As a result, a Backpacker / Youth Adventure Sector network has been created ensure issues relating to this important tourism sector are addressed, it is well represented and has a collective voice.

 

Any SATIC member who identifies this market as being important to their business is invited to become involved.

 

In the near future, a dedicated page will be created on the SATIC website with relevant information to support the network.
