Kolisi’s Zim visit boosts tourism cred, says ministry

Rugby legend Siya Kolisi just stamped his passport in Zimbabwe to flex its tourism status. The Springboks captain started his trip by checking out Victoria Falls before heading over to Harare. Officials from the Tourism and Hospitality Industry ministry claim this vacation cements their status as a top-tier destination capable of attracting global superstars.

Deputy Minister Tongai Mnangagwa linked up with the athlete at La Parada to exchange pleasantries. This government official handed over some national fabric and branded souvenirs to welcome their celebrity guest. Kolisi reportedly accepted these gifts happily while mingling with locals inside the capital city to experience authentic hospitality.

Social media posts showed the star soaking up spray from the thundering Mosi-oa-Tunya. He shared clips riding a jetboat at the base of the falls and chilling on a sunset cruise along the Zambezi River. One photo featured him wearing a chitenga and sipping beer while listening to Amapiano anthems.
