Japanese tourists

[NewsWhore]

Several tour operators have started to bring Japanese tourists to the DR, opening up the country to a new tourist market. Since April operators have brought tourists to the provinces of Pedernales and Barahona where they have taken part in ecological activities in Bahia de las Aguilas and visited Lago Enriquillo. Max-A, Five Star Club, Kamome Tours, Eurasia Tours and Revi Internacional are offering tours from Japan to the Dominican Republic. Dominican Ambassador in Japan Jose Urena said that Japanese tourists spend a good portion of their salaries on travel, which could be beneficial for the DR tourism sector. Urena says that the DR's diplomatic mission in Japan has been promoting Dominican tourism to Japanese citizens for three years.
