Countdown the days to the South Africa World Cup 2010 with new iPhone app

With less than 100 days to go until the opening ceremony of this year’s World Cup finals, the tension is building as the world prepares to go football crazy for 6 weeks this summer.

With a new batch of match tickets now on sale, a handy new iPhone app from the South African tourist board lets you count down the days to the event, as well as offering a bunch of information on places to stay and things to see if you’re one of the lucky few travelling to the games.

South African Tourism Country Manager Lebo Mokhesi explains:  “The excitement in South Africa – and across the World is mounting.  We hope that, as the event draws closer, we will be able to provide as much information as possible to visitors through a number of different channels. The new iApp is another innovative and exciting way to find out more about South Africa in the lead up to the tournament.”
