World Travel Market

Hand-in-hand with the Galician Tourism Cluster and the Tourism Agency, the trade mission will allow commercial meetings to be held within the framework of this international fair, where Galicia maintains a promotional space.

A score of professionals in the Galician tourism sector participate from today in the World Travel Market in London, which is held until next Wednesday in the British capital within the trade mission promoted by the Galician Tourism Cluster Turismo de Galicia hand in hand with Galicia Tourism. Accommodation, tour operation, thermal tourism offer (thalasso and spas), nautical or MICE make up this year’s trade mission to this fair, where the Galician offer is made known within the space with which Galicia has in the stand of Turespaña, as usual.

The WTM is one of the most important appointments for the tourism sector internationally, which throughout these days will maintain an agenda of contacts with British tour operators in order to continue working on the internationalization of the Galician tourism sector within the framework of an edition, the number 40, marked by the Brexit and the recent fall of Thomas Cook.

In addition to holding professional meetings in the Galician space set up at the stand of Turespaña, professionals in the sector held rapid meetings in speed networking and responsible for the Galician Tourism Cluster held a meeting with authorities of Green Spain and the OTS of London. “The aim of continuing to develop these trade missions is to contribute to generating synergies between the professionals themselves and encourage a first contact for those who want to start working with Galicia looking for authentic destinations that can offer different experiences and quality linked to Green Spain,” explained the president of the Galician Tourism Cluster, Cesáreo Pardal.

The British market is the sixth international market for Galicia and represents 1% of total foreign travelers who chose #Galicia as a tourist destination.
