The Tourism of Salamanca participates this week, together with CEAV (Spanish Confederation of Travel Agencies), in a new commercial day in the city of Bilbao.
These are face-to-face meetings with travel agencies and tour operators in which the needs and proposals for the marketing of the Salamanca destination are heard, in addition to promoting the program “2×1. Salamanca gives you twice as much”.
The action was held on the afternoon of Thursday, October 6, at the Gran Hotel Domine, with a workshop format and personalized interviews with the agents.
In this way, Salamanca promotes the ‘2×1’ programme, whose platform has just been renewed to “offer tourists a more intuitive and personalized experience thanks to the incorporation of the latest development technologies”. All this with the aim of “increasing the arrival of travelers to the city, which already in August registered a record of foreigners never before reached in a month of August, almost 32,000”.
