Travel News | Tours to domestic destinations attract travellers | | The number of travellers who have booked tours for 2010 New Year and Tet is relatively higher than non-holidays and higher than the same period last year, travel firms have said.
The total number of travellers who have booked tours via Saigontourist for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays has reached 7,000, an increase of eight percent over the same period from last year. Meanwhile, Ben Thanh Tourist has reported an increase of 10-15 percent.
Meanwhile, according to Nguyen Minh Man, senior executive of Vietravel, the travel firm will service 2,000 clients over Christmas and the New Year; so far 50 percent of this number have confirmed tours.
Domestic destinations have been the choices of many travellers. Southerners like travelling to the north and the central regions, choosing the tours to Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Sapa, Hue City and the coastal tourist spot Nha Trang.
Travel firms said that though prices have increased by five to 10 percent on average due to the higher service fees over the festival season, the number of travellers is still higher than the previous year.
Explaining the increase in the number of tourists, Nghia (FULL NAME) from Ben Thanh Tourist said that it is because of the preferences offered by travel firms and the policies of the State which aim to stimulate the demand.
Trips to the north via air have attracted clients because the ticket prices have decreased by two million dong. Hanoi is an attractive destination because it is preparing for its 1,000th anniversary, which will October 10, 2010, though celebrations have been planned throughout the year.
Meanwhile, Da Lat City is preparing for the Da Lat flower Festival which will take place between January 1 - 4, 2010.
