Hong Kong Tourism Board’s (HKTB) participation at the Arabian Travel Market 2024 (ATM) is led by its outreach trade strategy that is spearheading tourism and cultural exchange initiatives from May 6-9, together with 31 trade partners from the region.

Hong Kong is a visa-free destination for GCC travellers that is nestled at the crossroads of tradition and modernity, offering a kaleidoscope of cultural delights.

Renowned airlines such as Emirates (with 21 weekly flights) and Cathay Pacific (with 7 weekly flights) for GCC travellers are facilitating this journey to Hong Kong.

Notably, a memorandum of association has been signed with Emirates during ATM signifying a milestone in HKTB's endeavours to expand tourism initiatives within the GCC market.

Another key collaboration included an MOU signing with dnata Travel Group, further strengthening partnerships between Hong Kong and the GCC through leading airlines and travel agencies.

What can travellers expect?

Hong Kong presents a new horizon of luxury experiences and halal-friendly activities as part of its GCC travel initiatives.

Those experiences were carefully curated in the ‘Travel In Luxe’ Hong Kong guide:

Hong Kong offers curator-led tours of its leading museums, such as the Hong Kong Museum of Art, architectural marvels designed by renowned Pritzker Prize winners through exclusive guided visits that blend history with modern aesthetics.

Exploration of the breathtaking vistas and unique cityscapes – whether sailing on a yacht or touring the city in a helicopter, all while indulging in luxury shopping guided by expert shoppers at luxury spots.

VIP tours at major attractions like Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park, creating memorable experiences without the crowds and engaging the whole family with activities designed to entertain every age and interest.

Personalised services enhance shopping experiences to culinary sessions with elite chefs. This is in addition to those seeking a touch of adventure and learning: martial arts lessons with esteemed masters offer a unique, customised experience that combines culture with physical activity. – TradeArabia News Service
