Phu Quoc welcomes nearly 1,000 foreign visitors after one month of reopening

Among the nearly 1,000 international tourists, the first visitors traveled to Phu Quoc on November 20 last year, while four groups of other visitors flew to the island on board their private aircraft.

Kien Giang is one of five localities to get the green light from the government to welcome back fully immunized tourists from November onwards, alongside Quang Nam, Khanh Hoa, Quang Ninh, and Da Nang.

Kien Giang province had earlier planned to carry out the first phase of the pilot program to welcome foreign tourists to Phu Quoc until March 20 this year, but the province has changed its plan and started the second phase of the pilot program from this month.

In the second phase of the pilot plan, the province will allow eight more hotels, lodging facilities and resorts to participate, raising the total number to 18./. VNA
