Tajikistan – roof of the world
Between them they offer the full range of tourism activities from mountain activities to beach holidays – all with a heavy lacing of authenticity and deep culture.
This represents a substantial opportunity for specialist tour operators and mass-market operators alike.
The destinations are being marketed under a single brand, thought to be one of the strongest, and certainly one of the oldest and most evocative, in the world.
The event is to be held in Platinum Suite 5 at WTM on Wednesday 10 November at 14.30 – 16.00
Vision on Sustainable Tourism has a limited number of invitations for the event.
