MGTO promotes Macau tourism at the 28th International Travel Expo Hong Kong

Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO) participates in the 28th International Travel Expo (ITE) Hong Kong for an opportunity to promote Macau as a leisure and business tourism destination.
 

Head of Destination Marketing Department, Betty Fok led the MGTO delegation and trade partners to attend the Expo’s opening ceremony.
 

MGTO takes part in the leading tourism event in Hong Kong from 12 – 15 June together with travel trade delegates representing 37 businesses including hotels, travel agencies, ferry companies and event organizers to showcase Macau’s latest tourism information, unique culture and international events to exhibitors, business tourism partners and visitors from various countries and regions around the world.
 

MGTO attended the “Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macau Trade Networking Reception” as part of the program today (12 June) and hosted a cocktail reception at their joint booth, facilitating a wealth of networking opportunities for close to 100 travel trade partners from the three destinations.
 

This year, MGTO has once again chosen “Touching Moments, Experience Macau” as its promotional theme and adopted “Lotus in blossom” as its booth’s major design with colorful ribbons extending from the top of the booth, symbolizing a myriad of touching moments in the vibrant city. The design of lotus flower extends toward the center of the booth, where digital panels showcase each of the “Step Out, Experience Macau’s Communities” walking tour routes and their attractions, encouraging Hong Kong residents to come and experience the dynamic ambience in Macau.
 

Furthermore, MGTO organizes a series of travel seminars in the Expo including a MICE seminar tomorrow (13 June) to promote Macau as a business travel destination and its Incentive Travel Stimulation Program; two travel seminars about “Step Out, Experience Macau’s Communities” will also be held on the consumer days (14 and 15 June) to introduce Hong Kong citizens to the four walking routes under the theme so that they can gain a deeper understanding of the city’s local culture and tourist attractions.
 

During the two consumer days, MGTO will cooperate with three travel agencies in Hong Kong for the first time to offer a limited number of special travel packages to Macau in the Expo. The packages include “exclusive” hotel offers and discounted ferry tickets for visitors to purchase on the spot, expected to encourage visitations to Macau for a firsthand experience of its touching moments.
