World Tourism Day
27th September, 2016Greetings from Gerry's on World Tourism day 2016.
The chosen theme for this year "TOURISM FOR ALL PROMOTING UNIVERSAL ACCESSIBILITY", is a challenge for the world community to recognize and accept the diversity in the world, and celebrate this diversity.
The ability of tourism to empower people and provide them with skills to achieve change in their lives through cultural exchange is so tremendous that it can alter the economic faiths of countries. We must do our utmost to ensure this accessibility to all; lower income groups, senior citizens, those with physical disabilities or special needs, etc.
The world has become a true Global Village with greater opportunities produced in travel & tourism industry. The Travel & Tourism industry plays a vital role in bringing communities close; promoting culture awareness, defusing the political and geographical differences and certainly helps economies grow by creating employment.
In recent years there has been incredible growth in tourism due to the presence of social media, websites and internet usage and with technology advancing daily, there is going to be even further advancement in new and improved travel solutions.
We at Gerry's are committed to move with the times, and will continue to take every step forward to promote the Tourism Industry both locally and internationally.
Gerry's is a name well recognized in the field of travel and tours, with having served the industry for over fifty years, and we will continue to explore new and innovative travel solutions, to make Universal Travel Accessible to All.
