Kerala Tourism Takes a Drive in Germany
Kerala Tourism has ventured on to newer pastures with its latest road-shows in the German cities of Dusseldorf and Berlin.
“This is the second road-show we are conducting in these cities as part of aggressive destination marketing and tapping of new markets,” said Mr. A. P. Anilkumar, Minister for Tourism, Kerala.
“These interactions, along with the availability of Tourist-Visa-on-Arrival (T-VoA) enabled with Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to the German citizens are expected to bring in huge traffic from Germany to Kerala in the coming days,” said Mr. G. Kamala Vardhana Rao, Secretary, Kerala Tourism.
Mr. P. I. Sheik Pareeth, Director, Kerala Tourism said, “Germany is the third biggest market for Kerala in terms of tourist arrivals. As many as 77,698 tourist arrivals were recorded from there last year. As a rapidly growing market for Kerala, travellers from Germany recorded a growth of 55% in tourist arrivals in the last five years.”
