Today is World Tourism Day
September 27th is a day to observe all the wonderful things about travel and vacations.
A great getaway relieves stress and brings people together. It can also give us a chance to learn about new cultures, visit historic places, taste exciting foods, and experience new things. Let us help you see the world.
"Let us work together to maximize the immense potential of tourism to drive inclusive economic growth, protect the environment and promote sustainable development and a life of dignity for all."Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
Earlier this year, the leading global Travel & Tourism private sector and
government organisations - the Global Travel Association Coalition
(GTAC) - launched a commitment for aligned advocacy and
action to harness the full potential of the sector to create jobs, drive
