Abstract
Over the last decades, the tourism sector has grown in its contribution to national and regional economies. Good governance in South Africa has regressed over time in South Africa. The study’s objective was to investigate the impact of good governance of tourism in South Africa, a proxy for developing countries. A quantitative research methodology was used with econometric methods such as an Autoregressive Distributed Lag Error Correction process. The estimation indicated a long-run relationship between the variables. The tourism sector contributes significantly to the South African economy and government should note the importance of good governance, as indicated through this study in the success and development of the sector. Given tourism's potential to achieve some of the Sustainable Development Goals and positively influence economic growth and development, relevant parties are urged to pursue good governance in the sector.
