Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>The Tourism Seychelles representative office in Italy partnered with tour operator Evolution Travel in a full-day event on Sunday January 22 in Rome\u2019s city centre at Hotel Londra & Cargill to train the network\u2019s travel agents and travel consultants on the destination.<\/p>\n

Some 45 agents from different regions of the country gathered in Rome for the event, evidence of the growing interest in the destination, especially now that Seychelles is one of the few long haul countries open to Italian tourists through the \u2018Covid-free tourism corridors\u2019.<\/p>\n

Seychelles was illustrated in all its peculiar aspects from its history to its myriad attractions, with Evolution Travel\u2019s product manager Bruno Bottaro playing an active role in responding to the many questions and helping focus the attention on the different segments.<\/p>\n

Special guest Qatar Airways illustrated the connectivity to the archipelago and the Gulf airline\u2019s top services while another special guest Constance Hotels & Resorts focused on the hospitality sector, training the agents on how to best sell their resorts \u2012 Ephelia on Mah\u00e9 and L\u00e9muria on Praslin.<\/p>\n

Evolution Travel, a travel agency and tour operator which is among the top sellers of Seychelles, operates through a network of online travel consultants spread throughout Europe. It operates 100% online since 2000, working entirely in the cloud, in addition to other software that can be used on the web, running its network of online travel consultants around the world without any borders and with total freedom of movement. Their travel consultants communicate with the end user in order to carefully listen, understand their needs and best meet their demands. The travel company organised three familiarisation trips to the islands in 2021 for their agents to experience the destination.<\/p>\n

Figures show that the Italian market is quickly picking up after the lifting of the travel restrictions by the Italian government and data shows that a forecast of +350% is recorded for bookings for the months January-June 2022 compared to the number of visitors during the same period in 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are confident that the Covid pandemic has reached its peak and that Italian visitors will soon be back among the top markets for Seychelles,\u201d said Danielle Di Gianvito, Tourism Seychelles\u2019 representative in Italy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are slowly resuming small in-person events as restrictions are eased. Interest in the destination is very high, as is the demand for the spring and summer holidays.\u201d<\/p>\n
