Nicaragua’s Tourism Roundtable: Honduras; El Salvador participate to promote tourist destinations across the Central American region
As part of the “Nicaragua… Fascinating, Irresistible” campaign, the Nicaraguan Institute of Tourism (Intur), organized a business conference with international tour operators in the city of León on July 29.
The main objective was to promote tourist destinations and foster collaboration among business leaders from the Central American region.
A total of 16 international business agents participated in the event, including 10 tour operators from neighboring Honduras and 6 from El Salvador.
On July 28, the participants were warmly welcomed in León, where they received Nicaraguan souvenirs and enjoyed traditional music and folk dances.
The agenda for July 29 included a destination presentation by Intur authorities, announcement of campaign details, integration and development of creative cities at the national level, the National Tourism Map in digital format, and new tourist routes.
Following these presentations, the business conference provided a platform for international operators to interact with 20 Nicaraguan service providers from the departments of León, Managua, and Granada, creating marketing opportunities for both parties.
At the end of the day, each participant had the chance to establish direct contacts with international businessmen, paving the way for future trips and tourist packages to Nicaragua.
These meetings proved beneficial for both sectors, and the participants expressed their appreciation for the central government’s efforts in promoting the country’s tourism development.
After the negotiations, the international businessmen enjoyed a tour of the city’s tourist attractions, including visits to the Cathedral of León and the Rubén Darío Archive Museum.
Additionally, they had the opportunity to experience the VIII edition of the Azul Dario Festival.
