Tourism operators on the southern Thai resort island of Phuket hope to welcome more Vietnamese tourists following a recent promotional campaign in the country's two biggest cities.

Specifically, travel companies hope to welcome at least 120,000 Vietnamese tourists this year, up 50% from 80,000 last year, following destination promotion events held in Ho Chi Minh City on May 21 and in Hanoi two days later, Thanet Tantipiriyakit, chairman of the Phuket tourism board, told the Bangkok Post .

Vietnamese tourists to Thailand are increasing in number

According to data from the Thai Ministry of Tourism and Sports , about 290,000 Vietnamese tourists visited Thailand from January to April this year, down 5.4 percent year-on-year.

However, this number is still much higher than the number of Thai visitors to Vietnam in the past 4 months. Specifically, in the first 4 months of 2024, there were 164,000 Thai visitors to Vietnam, down 18% compared to the same period in 2023.

Thailand recorded about 1 million Vietnamese visitors last year, but only 8% chose Phuket as one of their destinations. He added that operators hope to see at least 12% of total visitors from Vietnam come to Phuket, thanks to direct flights from Ho Chi Minh City.

The figure of 1 million visitors is more than double the number of Thai visitors to Vietnam. According to the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, last year, Vietnam attracted about 489,000 Thai visitors.

Vietnamese travel agencies explain that there are many reasons why Vietnamese tourists to Thailand are increasing, such as diverse flight routes, cheap airfares, many entertainment venues that are always being updated, subsidized tour programs with low package prices..., especially promotional programs that are organized regularly to attract customers right in the Vietnamese market.

In the first 4 months of 2024, Thailand welcomed a total of 12 million international tourists. The five countries with the largest number of tourists include China, Malaysia, Russia, South Korea and India. Meanwhile, Vietnam welcomed 6 million international visitors in the first 4 months of 2024, led by South Korea, China, the US, Taiwan, Australia, etc.
