We have been successful in hosting numerous meetings with buyers, especially those who are starting to sell India to their country for the first time as a travel destination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Additional Chief Secretary, Tourism, NC Goel said that looking at the success of event, GITB could be organized at offshore destinations including Berlin and London.<\/p>\n<p>CEO of Creative Travel, Sandeep Kapur said that the quality of GITB has improved greatly this year and features like \u2013 large spaces, serious buyers and the scope for meeting all partners under one roof make this travel show an advantageous platform for all tour operators.<\/p>\n<p>Head, FICCI Rajasthan State Council, Atul Sharma said that 275 foreign buyers from 53 countries had intensive one-to-one meetings with 288 Indian sellers over a period of two days. As many as 9 states including Rajasthan also displayed their tourism prowess through interactions as well as their promotional literature and visual films.<\/p>\n<p>The General Secretary of Indian Heritage Hotels Association (IHHA), Randhir Vikram Singh Mandawa said that GITB has been a great boon for heritage hotels. It is not possible for smaller heritage hotels to participate in world tourism marts to promote their properties. In GITB, these hotels get an opportunity to interact with the FTOs from all over the world at a very nominal cost.<\/p>\n<p>The second day of GITB was organized by Department of Tourism, Government of Rajasthan, Ministry of Tourism, Government of India and Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI).<\/p>\n<p>It is supported by leading national and regional associations like Hotel and Restaurant Association of Rajasthan (HRAR), Indian Heritage Hotels Association (IHHA) and Rajasthan Association of Tour Operators (RATO).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jaipur: The 9th edition of The Great Indian Travel Bazaar (GITB) came to an end on Tuesday with large scale participation of various stakeholders in the travel trade.
