Sharjah, (IANS/WAM) A delegation of tourism authorities from Sharjah will go on a road show from April 14-20 across several Gulf countries.
Places visited by the road show will include Doha, Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
The Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA) road show comes as the SCTDA seeks to stimulate tourism in the region.
Mohamed A. Al Noman, director general of the SCTDA, said the road show will help promote Sharjah as a leading tourism destination on the regional tourism scene through its numerous marketing and promotional campaigns.
"Gulf tourists constituted 24 percent - an amount of 330,000 tourists - of the total tourists visiting Sharjah last year, which is encouraging the emirate to continue offering more services and facilities for the tourists, thus raising the tourism sector in the emirate to new heights," he said.
