The Embassy of Sri Lanka in Ha Noi, Viet Nam, organized a meeting between Viet Nam Outbound Travel Agents and two premier Travel Agents from Sri Lanka, namely Tour Blue Holdings and Tropical Asia Tours on 10 September 2019.
The meeting started with an introduction to Sri Lanka tourism with videos and a presentation, made done by Charge d’Affaires a.i of the Mission, P.K. Boomawlage. Six Vietnamese Outbound Travel companies were present at the meeting and all of them expressed their willingness to promote Sri Lanka Packages through their websites in future. It is important to note that, most of these companies do not promote Sri Lanka yet. The willingness for familiarization tours also expressed and above all more awareness campaigns in this manner are required to popularize Sri Lanka as a tourist destination among the Vietnamese.
The meeting was wrapped up after B2B meetings with the two Sri Lankan Travel Agents including a Ceylon Tea tasting session at the end.
