Artificial Intelligence in Hospitality and Tourism in Africa offers a timely and comprehensive exploration of AI's transformative role in tourism and hospitality across Africa, and other emerging regions. As global industries rapidly adopt AI technologies, this timely volume addresses the critical gap in literature concerning AI integration in tourism sectors where infrastructural and technological limitations persist.

Bringing together diverse perspectives from scholars and practitioners, this edited volume presents a balanced blend of conceptual frameworks and practical insights. Chapters examine fintech's role in the visitor economy; AI-driven service personalisation; and industry preparedness for robotics and automation. It is an essential resource for academics, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking to understand and harness AI's potential within the unique socio-economic contexts of emerging markets.
