Promotion of tours to our neighbors in Slovenia. If one looks at the map, the narrow radius is quickly recognized, in which the nearest neighboring cities Maribor, Ljubljana, Ptuj as the oldest city in Slovenia or Celje are located. We have set up a European-Destination-of-Excellence(EDEN)-offer with three Slovenian partners. Our cooperation partner Schlösserstraße is currently in the process of forming with Slovenian castles. From Slovenian companies we are often booked for the organisation of excursions. Financially supported by our tourist office Feldbach, with probably the most colorful church tower in the world, we now bundle this preliminary work with an equally colorful mix of people interested in traveling. Together with Schlösserstraße and Vulcano ham manufactory Feldbach presented itself for the first time on a common stand with a common touristic package in a non-German speaking country. This mix of culinary, culture and service has scored. The Foreign Trade Offices in Ljubljana as stand neighbor and the contacts of Mr. Mag. Bardeau of Castle Kornberg have brought the Slovenian Prime Minister Dr. Ing. Miro Ceraran and State Secretary of Culture Mrs. Damjana Pečnikan to our stand. Of course, the mascot Vulkanija from Grad visited us at the stand, too.
The similar mentality, proximity and good transport connection for a day trip or a short break are benefits. Advent tours are also in demand and a lot of exercise, sports programs and nature, as the name of the fair already says. The promotional tour has led us to provide regional information in Slovenian on our homepage, which will be followed by these days. Ultimately, the personal commitment to be noticed among 300 exhibitors is the key to success. Thanks to Ivan and Martina, the two native speakers for their commitment. It was an optimal pooling of competences, which we will continue at the workshop with Austria Tourism (Österreich Werbung) in Ljubljana and Zagreb. “The whole is more than the sum of its parts!” Krone Press report
