The organizers of the 19th annual exhibition of MITT (Moscow International Travel and Tourism) have announced that the Dominican Republic will be the partner country for Russia's largest and leading travel and tourism exhibition, taking place on 21st March n 24th March 2012.
The Russian office of the Dominican Republic Ministry of Tourism has been taking part in MITT since 2005. Every year since then, as the exhibition grew, and the Russian outbound travel market started to show impressive growth rates, the Dominican Republic has increased its presence.
In 2005, the Dominican Republic only had two co-exhibitors, and now more than 15 representatives of hotel chains and tourist companies are expected to take part.
Galina Lyssenko, Director of the Russian office of Dominican Republic Tourism Board said that while only 400 tourists from Russia in 2002 came to the Dominican Republic, in 2011, there were almost 121,000.
The aim of the Tourism Board is to show all the variety of options available and show that the Dominican Republic was not only a leisure destination. As Russian tourists become more demanding and curious, she said that they can enjoy the country for its cultural tourism, diving, weddings, golf, extreme sports and luxury leisure.
