DUBAI, October 24, 2023
With Germany as a prime destination for GCC tourists, the German National Tourist Office (GNTO) is set to further captivate the Gulf region with its compelling roadshow from October 29 to November 2.
The GNTO, along with nine partners, will embark on a journey across major Gulf cities, including Jeddah, Riyadh, Kuwait City, Doha, and Abu Dhabi, strengthening ties, and sharing insights with local tourism professionals and media partners.
Yamina Sofo, Director Marketing & Sales Office Gulf Countries at the German National Tourist Office (GNTO), elaborated on the roadshow's goals: “Our aim is not only to introduce Germany to the local travel trade, but also to diversify our campaign offerings and share valuable knowledge with market experts.”
