Indonesia tourism ministry, Accor launch golf tour packages
Indonesia’s Ministry of Tourism has partnered with Garuda Indonesia, Accor Hotels and Malaysian golf tour operators to launch Wonderful Indonesia Le Club Accorhotels Golf Challenge at a media event in Kuala Lumpur.
This is the second promotional event for the campaign following Singapore and will also be rolled out in Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Seoul, Melbourne, Sydney and Manila.
“This is the first time the government is collaborating with Accor and the consortium to promote golf packages in Indonesia. It helps create awareness of Indonesia as a golf destination and attracts more FIT golfers,” said Nia Niscaya, director of international tourism promotion for the Indonesian tourism ministry.
According to Steven Leow, group CEO of tour operator Leisure Golf Services, 22 tournaments will take place in Jakarta, Bali, Surabaya, Batam, Semarang and Jogjakarta from now until January 2016.
Special 4D3N packages have been launched starting from US$470 per person.
