To achieve the goal of welcoming 5 million foreign tourists this year as set out earlier, Vietnam's tourism industry needs to make greater efforts in promoting its image and building more tourism products, according to insiders.

The domestic search volume for tourism in July surged by nearly 8 folds year-on-year, and by 3 times compared to the beginning of March 2022 when the country started to re-open tourism.

VOV.VN - Vietnam has continuously ranked among the world's fastest growing travel destinations, with a growth rate of between 50% and 75% since the beginning of the year, according to details given by the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT).

The Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) is taking extra efforts to realise the target of welcoming 5 million foreign visitors amidst a decline in the numbers of tourists from China and Russia.

VOV.VN - Vietnam should host World Travel Week in the future to elevate popular local destinations, and the World Travel Awards (WTA) will provide assistance in bringing people to the event, suggested Graham Cooke, founder of the World Travel Awards.

The number of international search volume for Vietnam’s tourism in June surged by 1,125% year-on-year, according to the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT).

Three months have passed since Vietnam completely reopened its tourism activities, including both inbound and outbound tours.

Vietnam has made the shortlist in 10 categories at the prestigious World Travel Awards (WTA) 2022, the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) said on June 6.
