Grant Webster: Tourism Holdings Ltd CEO on tourism bouncing back after Covid
Tourism is making a comeback and people are deciding to spend more time here.
Before Covid it was our largest export.
It's clambered back up to number three on the list, with visitors spending 2.1 billion dollars in the last quarter.
Tourism Holdings Limited Chief Executive Grant Webster told Kate Hawkesby that it's recovering faster than he anticipated, partly down to a good ski season and the Fifa World Cup.
He says we saw a lot of people visiting over winter, and the attractions in the regions played a big part.
