The Department of Conservation has confirmed tourism numbers are returning to pre-covid levels.
New data shows visitors are back at 80% of what was seen before the pandemic, with arrivals increasing from 1.52 million in 2022 to 2.29 million in 2023.
Totally Tourism CEO Mark Quickfall told Mike Hosking that despite places like Europe seeing much higher figures, it has to be looked at in perspective.
He says for companies like his —which lost 90% of businesses overnight due to Covid— it's a positive.
