Year travel season
VietNamNet Bridge
– The 2013 New Year holiday would last four days. However, travel firms say
most clients book short term 2-3 day tours.
Low cost tours preferred A senior executive of Vietravel said travel firms can attract more clients nowadays only if they can design the tours that fit people’s pockets and fit their tastes. Short term tours which last two or three days prove to be the most wanted by clients in the New Year travel season. “When booking 2-3-day tours, tourists can have both interesting trips and free time to relax before they go back to work,” the executive said. Therefore, a series of short term tours with near destinations have been designed. The tours from Hanoi to Thung Nai, Mai Chau, Moc Chau, Ha Giang, Cao Bang and Dien Bien which last 2-3 days, now cost 1-4 million dong, affordable to all people. Meanwhile, Vietrantours focuses on exploiting the tours by land, including the ones from Thu Anh, a communication executive of Vietrans Tour, said the tours to the northeast are the good suggestions for the tourists who are seeking short term tours.

Meanwhile, travel firms have to offer price discounts for long term tours to stimulate the demand. Sharp price discounts of up to 40 percent have been offered for the tours from With similar policies, Vietravel has also slashed the tour fees for the tours from Other travel firms including Hanoi Redtours, Hanoitourist, Fiditour and Lien Bang Travelink have also slashed the tour fees by 10-30 percent. The further destinations would have higher tour fee reductions. The outbound tour market is not bustling as expected, though the number of travelers to nearby markets such as The “hottest” outbound tour now is the one to An executive of Vietrantour said Vietnamese still like the tours to regional countries, because they can both travel and go shopping at the same time. The shopping centers in Travel firms don’t expect too much Most travel firms say they do not expect the sharp increase in the number of tourists this Christmas and New Year season, saying that the 10 percent growth rate would be enough to satisfy them. Vietravel hopes it can obtain the 20 percent growth rate, while Saigontourist 15 percent. To Quoc |
