Male’, Maldives – Visit Maldives has commenced a campaign with TripAdvisor under the concept “Escape to Maldives: Calm Awaits”, to promote tourism in Maldives.
The campaign is to run from January 2021 to September 2021, targeting the US, Europe and APAC region, which will connect Maldives with the largest travel community in the world. Amidst the pandemic, the borders of most European countries are currently closed, and the purpose of the campaign will align with keeping European tourists dreaming of Maldives and encouraging them to travel to the destination once restrictions are lifted.
This campaign aims to create more destination awareness with compelling content and curated itineraries, in order to influence potential travelers to Maldives. It will also highlight and emphasize on travel reassurance and safety standards set in Maldives throughout the campaign.
We are very excited to be kicking off 2021 with Maldives Tourism. The Escape to Maldives: Calm Awaits campaign is a content series in partnership with TripAdvisor that looks to inspire travelers to take their dream trip, sit back and enjoy the beauty of Maldives.
