Cuba To Close 2007 with More than 2 Million Tourists
Holguin, Nov 16 (acn) For the fourth year in a row, Cuba is expecting
to receive more than 2 million tourists this year 2007, which confirms
that the island is one the most im****tant tourist destinations in the
Caribbean.
Cuba's tourism deputy minister Maria Elena Lopez said that most of
Cuba's tourism markets are expected to grow by the end of this period.
Lopez talked about the development of tourism in the island at the
second session of the 18th French Travel Agencies Association
The AFAT-VOYAGES Congress is underway in Hotel Playa Pesquero, which has
the highest number of rooms (944) in the country.
The minister noted that besides the well-known quality of Cuba's
beaches and its nature, foreign visitors have showed increased interest
in the history and culture of the island.
More than 500 tourism experts are attending the Congress seeking to
learn more about the island. The event could lead to a boost in the
number of French visitors to Cuba, said Jean Pierre Mas president of
Gala Agency.
As part of the activity program, participants in the event enjoyed a
beach show named El alma de Cuba (Cuba's Soul) in Cayo Bariay, located
in the eastern province of Holguin, which has became the third tourist
destination in the country.
AFAT-VOYAGES was created in 1988. It includes more than 600 points of
sale and is considered as the premier travel agencies network in France.
