Malvern-based East Cape Tours and Safaris (Atol 11153) also traded via eastcapetours.com. The CAA on Monday (2 December) confirmed East Cape’s Atol had lapsed.


On its website, which remains live, the business said it had "been in the tourism industry for more than 25 years".


East Cape specialised in tailor-made safaris to Africa, highlighting Botswana, Kenya and Namibia in particular.


It was also a member of the Southern Africa Tourism Services Association and the African Travel and Tourism Association.

The CAA said it was collating information on the company and would provide updates as soon as possible.
