Haiti - Tourism : Official Launch of the first combo packages USA
09/06/2013 09:51:31

On Friday, the Ministry of Tourism in collaboration with the Consulate General of the Republic of Haiti in Miami, launched the first combo packages from the United States of America, following the agreement signed between the Ministry of Tourism and Transat Holidays USA.

Transat Holidays’ USA offers week-long vacation packages allowing you to experience the best of Haiti. The Combo packages combine Port-au-Prince/Pétion-Ville with the Arcadins Coast. A phone number (1-855-99-HAITI) was made available to the interested public for information and reservations, or visit the web page https://transatholidaysusa.com/main.cfm?l=en&p=02_100&siteID=2

In Port-au-Prince, there will be tours scheduled to visit the Museum of Haitian National Pantheon (MUPANAH), Boutiliers Observatory, the Rhum Barbancourt distillery, the Iron Market including attending entertainment shows such as the traditional music group RAM.

Natural sites as Saut d'Eau, Islets Arcadins or Kay Piat pedestrian excursion to a natural swimming pool, among other natural attractions, are listed in the tour visitors through their seaside holiday on the Arcadins Coast (Côte des Arcadins).

This tour package is due as a result of the agreement announced in December 2012 that was signed at the beginning of January 2013 between the Ministry of Tourism of Haiti and Transat. From January 2013, Haiti is welcoming each month a group of Canadian tourists in a 7 days tour package.

"Our tourism development strategy is based mainly on working with selected partners as Transat, which became the first major Canadian tour operator offering holiday packages in Haiti", declared the Minister of Tourism for Haiti, Mrs. Stéphanie Balmir Villedrouin. "Haiti has all the potentials to regain the heart of international travellers."

Moreover, on the sidelines of the launch of this package, the Minister of Tourism also presented the audiovisual promotional campaign that Tourism of Haiti is launching through the social networks: 2 spots than explain the values of Haiti, such as its history, unique art, natural beauty, gastronomy, music etc...

The first clip entitled "With Haiti in my heart" the intent is to get through the emotions, senses, so that the audiences are able to almost feel, live and smell everything that Haiti has to offer to the visitors. These images are completely different from what the public outside of Haiti are used to seeing through the Medias. The second video shows the unique places that are included into the travel packages for the United States citizens presented by the Ministry of Tourism.
