To convince customers to join green tours, Mr. Pham Van Bay - Deputy Director of Vietravel Hanoi, said that the company has focused on communicating the right values.

“We tell the story of each destination and itinerary, share real experiences from previous travelers, and are transparent about why our prices are higher – but in return for a deeper, more memorable experience. We also incorporate special offers on special occasions, such as group discounts, and give away reusable gifts or ‘green’ items to travelers who choose sustainable tours,” he said.

Speaking with VietNamNet reporter, Ms. Tran Thi Bao Thu, Marketing and Communications Director of Vietluxtour, said that tours integrating green tourism activities and ESG (3 factors of environment, society and corporate governance) account for more than 30% of the company's products and are on the rise.

However, according to Ms. Thu, green tourism products are still a special product line, suitable for certain customer segments, and cannot be widely deployed to all customers. However, she believes that, with the general trend, the demand for green tourism and sustainable tourism will grow, especially with corporate customers.

With this special label, Vietnamese tourism will be on par with the world . The green transformation policy needs to be implemented as quickly as possible so that Vietnamese tourism can soon have a green label, thereby proving that our service quality is on par with the world.
