Guyana eyeing tourism marketing awareness seminar in US

Georgetown : President Donald Ramotar announced Guyana will host an extensive marketing awareness seminar in the United States of America soon.

The President was at the time addressing delegates of the 13th Sustainable Tourism Conference who gathered on the lawns of State House last evening.

The President urged the delegates to use the occasion to rethink approach, embrace new strategies and seek new vistas in tourism development.

“If this conference has stimulated ideas on the way forward for sustainable tourism development then I believe that it would have been an immeasurable success because great achievements originate with great ideas,” President Ramotar said.
He shared the Guyana Government’s vision of promoting community based tourism through the support of measures that strengthen and expand community involvement in the development of the country’s tourism product. His visit to Kumu Falls in the Kanuku Mountains of the Rupununi recently and the prospects for further developing the location to attract tourists was shared with the guests.
