Recently, the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) has just issued a document requesting the Department of Tourism, Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of provinces and centrally-run cities to strengthen safety assurance in tourism activities during the holidays and peak summer tourism season of 2024.
Accordingly, the Department of Tourism requested the implementation of the Prime Minister's Official Dispatch No. 36/CD-TTg dated April 11, 2024. This Official Dispatch emphasized the need to ensure traffic order and safety to serve the high travel needs of the people. At the same time, tourism businesses are also encouraged to prepare good service conditions, ensure hygiene and safety to prevent epidemics and provide quality services to attract and maintain the satisfaction of tourists.
The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism is concerned that price increases and pressure on customers could have a negative impact on the tourism industry.
Serious implementation of these directives will contribute to improving the quality and reputation of Vietnam's tourism industry, thereby creating favorable conditions for the sustainable development of the industry in the future.
At the same time, the tourism departments and the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism direct business units to strictly comply with regulations on registration, public posting of prices of goods and services and selling at the correct listed prices for products and services serving the entertainment, shopping, sightseeing, experience and culinary needs of tourists (service prices must be posted at the reception area, in a visible place, where customers approach before using the service); do not arbitrarily increase prices, pressure customers, causing negative impacts on the tourism industry.
The Vietnam National Administration of Tourism also mentioned promoting and introducing tourist destinations and products and services to serve tourists on the basis of promoting cultural identity and historical traditions.
Previously, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also issued a document on implementing domestic tourism stimulus activities in 2024 with the theme "Vietnamese people travel to Vietnam - Vietnam I love" to welcome the holiday season.
