Vietnam’s culture, tourist sites introduced at Brussels Holiday Fair

Several Vietnamese companies have introduced Việt Nam’s cultural features, natural landscapes and cuisine to visitors at the 60th Brussels Holiday Fair that is being held in Belgium’s capital city from February 1 to February 4.

At the event, representatives from Vietnam Airlines, the national flag carrier, have provided visitors with information on its inbound and outbound flights, especially air routes from Belgium and other European nations to Việt Nam.

Vietnamese Ambassador to Belgium Vương Thừa Phong took the opportunity to promote the image of the Vietnamese land and people to Belgians and other international partners.

Nguyễn Thị Dung Hạnh from the Gvietnamtravels Company said that this time her company was offering tours designed to fit the requirements of each group of customers and cater to all services, from visa application to buying flight tickets.

According to her, Belgium is a promising market for Vietnamese travel agencies.

At the event, several Belgian companies have also introduced their attractive tours to Việt Nam.

 

Vietnam News Agency’s correspondent quoted Willy Somers, a representative of Belgian Lauwers Tourism Company, as saying that his company had introduced to its customers many tours from north to south Việt Nam that could be completed in 12 days to 15 days.

He said the company’s customers have booked all the tours to Việt Nam departing next month.

According to the plan, the company will conduct tours to Việt Nam throughout 2018, and this proves the Vietnamese market is interested in Belgian customers.

Việt Nam welcomed nearly 13 million international tourists in 2017, up 29.1 per cent compared with the previous year, of which 1.9 million tourists were from Europe, including more than 29,000 Belgians.

The 60th Brussels Holiday Fair is taking place from February 1 to February 4 in Brussels. This is a good opportunity for tour operators, airlines, hotels and tour operators in Belgium, as well as foreign partners to seek partners and business opportunities.
