Ethiopian tourism agencies to participate in Moscow tourism fair

Ethiopian tourism agencies have applied to participate in the international tourism and trade fair scheduled this month, from 17 – 20 March, in Moscow and use the opportunity to discuss about future business cooperation and prospects with their Russian partners, APA learns from the organizers here on Sunday. 

Over the past few years, Ethiopian tourism agencies together with the Ethiopian embassy in Moscow have stepped up efforts to win the hearts of Russians whose incomes have grown significantly and are in search of Africa’s exotic destinations.

Mr. Amha Hailegeorgis of the Ethiopian embassy told APA that “the flow of Russian tourists to Ethiopia has been increasing steadily due to relentless efforts to popularize the country’s spots through the local media in Russia.”
