Seminar focuses on caravan tourism

The Government should have policies to encourage the development of ‘caravan tourism,’ delegates said at an international seminar on Vietnam overland tourism held August 7 in the central city of Da Nang.
Speaking at the seminar, held by the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, delegates said the Government should assist companies, which organize and manage tours of international tourists to Vietnam, with easier documentation.
They proposed that the Government make border gates, which are able to receive international tourists, become international border gates.
The traffic infrastructure on main routes connecting the international border gates to central areas should be upgraded to create advantageous conditions for tourists to travel through Vietnam and the East – West Economic Corridor, which passes through Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.
