dc.description.abstractAbstract This study examines the role of African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) role in promoting cross -border tourism across African countries. Through a desk research design, the study reviews existing literature, policy frameworks, and secondary data to assess the current state of regional tourism flows, analyze relevant AfCFTA provisions, and evaluate the potentia l of AfCFTA to address key barriers such as policy fragmentation, infrastructural deficits, and administrative challenges. The findings reveal that while AfCFTA offers promising frameworks for liberalizing tourism-related services and improving regional co nnectivity, significant gaps remain in harmonizing policies and developing infrastructure to fully realize its potential. The study recommends coordinated policy reforms, infrastructure investments, institutional collaboration, and unified regional marketing strategies to strengthen tourism integration under AfCFTA. These efforts can contribute to economic growth, cultural exchange, and greater regional unity across the continent.
