Riyadh – Asdaf News:

In a strategic move aimed at expanding its presence in the Middle East and fostering stronger ties with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Korea tourism Organization (KTO) has announced the opening of its inaugural representative office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

This milestone marks a significant step in South Korea's efforts to tap into the Saudi market following a favorable annual tourism performance with international tourists, and a recent considerable growth rate in tourism from Saudi Arabia and the GCC countries.

Appointed as the marketing and PR representative for Korea Tourism Organization in Saudi Arabia, AVIAREPS, a prominent global leader in tourism, aviation, hospitality representation, and communications boasting a network of 70 offices across 65 countries, will spearhead efforts to raise awareness about South Korea as an ideal travel destination for Saudi travellers looking for a fantastic holiday destination with the greatest allure in culture, cuisine and cost. In addition to that, the new office will educate travel agents on the destination, and expand the inclusion of South Korea in Saudi Arabia's tour operators' portfolios.

With ambitious goals aimed at increasing visitor numbers from Saudi Arabia and the wider region, boosting spending, and extending stays, both organizations are poised to contribute to the growth of international arrivals from Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries.

The timing of this partnership couldn't be more opportune for South Korea's travel industry; following a remarkable rebound in foreign tourism in 2023, with numbers reaching 63% of pre-COVID levels.

“Korea Tourism Organization, in partnership with governmental bodies and tourism stakeholders in Korea, is fully dedicated to enriching the tourism landscape and the industry's offerings for Saudi travellers, as well as for Saudi-based travel agents and outbound tour operators,”
