Morocco Opens Tourism Office in Abu Dhabi
In a statement issued on Monday, the Office stated that the new premises will serve as a regional platform to increase tourist flows between the Kingdom and the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).
Described as having “very strong potential,” the Gulf market is very promising. Middle Easterners stay an average of ten days, and the approximate expense of their accommodations is four times higher than the average budget of tourists from elsewhere in the world.
On the sidelines of the office’s inauguration, the Moroccan National Tourist Office and the Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority will sign an agreement to strengthen experience exchanges and increase tourism flows between the two countries.
As part of its tourism vision, Morocco aspires to attract more tourists and explore more world markets.
The Kingdom won the Best Stand award on Thursday at the International Travel and Tourism Exhibition, in Moscow, Russia, held from March 18 to 21, 2015.
In February, Lahcen Haddad, the Minister of Tourism, said that the tourism sector achieved positive and overall encouraging results in 2014 despite a slowdown in the past few months.
