Dubai,
UAE, 13 July 2022:
Wego, the largest online travel marketplace in the Middle East and North Africa
(MENA), and Indonesia Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy collaborate to
revive tourism to Bali.
The all-time favorite destination, Bali, is welcoming tourists
in the new norm. Bali is a country of diverse landforms. It has been one of the
top honeymoon destinations or holiday spots. Bali has everything for adventure
enthusiasts and the solo traveler in search of tranquility, ranging from
waterfalls to nightclubs to treks.
Through Wego’s vast user base in MENA, Indonesia Tourism Board
will be able to promote its destination and Bali specifically to drive more
bookings. To revive tourism post covid, Indonesia has launched an exhibition
with the theme "It's time for Bali".
To welcome tourists to the country, Bali offers Visa on arrival
to 72 countries. Countries from the middle east like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE,
Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait have also been added to this list. Alongside, other
nationalities’visitors must apply for the B211A Visit Visa for 60 days. The
primary purpose of easing travel to Indonesia is to encourage tourism and
attract foreign exchange into the country.
Mamoun
Hmedan, Chief Commercial Officer and Managing Director, Middle East, North
Africa (MENA) and India of Wego, said: “We are expanding our partnerships to cover
more destinations and offer our users more choice. Indonesia and particularly
Bali is a hot spot for many travellers, especially from the MENA region. We
look forward to working with the Indonesia Tourism Board to bring more
travellers to the country.”
According to a recent study, Indonesia is set to welcome over
900,000 tourists by the end of this quarter. The government is helping curb the
spread of covid-19 spread by keeping the highest vaccination rates in Bali and
maintaining the standards as per CHSE certifications.
Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, Minister of
Tourism and Creative Economy of the Republic of Indonesia, said:“We've been synchronizing
or aligning some of our future promotion plans since Bali is still the top of
mindof tourists, with a new economic era through digital marketing, it is
necessary to innovate in our patterns of promotion. There are several
approaches to achievethe target of tourist number, namely by joint cooperation
with our strategic partners in the market and organizing various
international-class events in Indonesia. We agree with the approaches that
become our programs such as sports tourism, MICE, and international events and
tourism villages.”
Tourists can go hiking on Java Island, sit alongside the beach
at Gili, or visit the Tanah Lot Sea temple. From ancient temples to modern bars
to breathtaking landscapes, Bali offers a unique combination of diverse
experiences at once. The island is perfect for those seeking mental relaxation
since it is full of affordable yoga and healing centers. While Bali is a
popular tourist destination, it has an equal abundance of Balinese people who
preserve the culture and uniqueness of the island.
Travellers to Indonesia can also explore the Ubud market to
purchase handcrafted artsy items made by the locals. Food-lovers can also
indulge in the goodness of traditional Padang food with dishes like
coconut-milk cassava and varieties of beef, curry, chicken, and rice. Those who
want to visit the peaceful unexplored corners can soak in the beauty of the
Derawan Islands in Indonesia.
Indonesia
will also host the international G20 summit in Nusa Dua, Bali, in November
2022. The European Union and 19 countries will attend the G20 summit. The theme
