German Travel Professionals Five-Hour Stay in Paradise
DOMINICA (December 12, 2023) – Yesterday, Dominica hosted a group of thirteen (13)
sought-after travel professionals from Germany, including senior sales agents, agency directors,
sales managers, and travel agency owners, for a familiarization trip. Arbeitsgemeinschaft Karibik
(AGK) organized this trip in collaboration with Starclipper Cruise Ship. This initiative
showcased the unique offerings of Dominica as an ideal travel destination, especially for
adventure-loving Germans.
During their five-hour stay on the island, the group visited Syndicate Falls and was guided by
Dominica’s Historian, Dr. Lennox Honeychurch, toured the Carbrits National Park. Adding to
the local experience, they had lunch at the scenic Bell Hall Beach Spot. Here, they not only
delighted in the local cuisine but also got a taste of Dominica’s vibrant culture, swaying to the
rhythmic bouyon music and savoring the unique flavor of the local beer.
The attendees expressed their delight with the experience and showed enthusiasm about
promoting Dominica’s adventures, cuisine, and accommodations to potential travelers in the
German market. Given Germany’s fondness for hiking and outdoor adventures, Dominica
presents an ideal location for these tourists with its rich natural beauty and diverse outdoor
activities.
Recognizing the brevity of the trip, the Discover Dominica Authority provided each visitor with
a comprehensive package. The package contained links to a gallery showcasing Dominica’s
natural sites, videos about the island, details of accommodation options, and other essential
information useful for travelers and travel agents.
This familiarization trip is part of Dominica’s continuous efforts to attract more international
visitors by highlighting its unique offerings and experiences. The Discover Dominica Authority hopes these initiatives will boost awareness and interest in Dominica as a top-tier travel
destination.
