Ryanair at odds with Portugal tourism board
It’s true that we focus on Algarve related news and reports here, but this particular subject has Faro at its middle, Algarve so it’s quite pertinent to our subject matter.
Algarve wants winter tourism
Last week in Albufeira, the national tourism board Turismo de Portugal, announced a massive plan meant to combat seasonality in the Algarve by increasing the number of visitors to the region in the winter season.
The Algarve tourist season is ramping up
The Algarve tourism season is starting to ramp up, with May getting closer and closer the Algarve Tourism Association – ATA – has established partnerships with more than 20 tour operators from a variety of markets as well as 11 airlines in order to boost the regional tourism and the local economy.
Algarve visitor satisfaction numbers are great
The Algarve visitor satisfaction has to be some of the highest possible considering it’s popularity. While it may be one of the most popular holiday destinations for Europeans, but that doesn’t mean that Europeans are the only visitors here, quite the contrary, and it appears that those tourists that come from Brazil show the highest satisfaction with their vacations in Portugal.
Or at least that’s what a recent ‘tourist satisfaction study’ released by Turismo de Portugal says. The overall level of tourist satisfaction is very high, stating that 34% of respondents enjoyed a holiday that was above their expectations, and a solid 85% percent of those asked said that they would certainly or probably return to Portugal within the next three years.
