Workshop, to my way of thinking, was pretty productive. We had an opportunity to discuss some vital problems that touristic industry is facing at the moment among true specialists; we had a chance to share our experience, thoughts, facts with a mass audience, which is important, as sometimes it might be tough. Such Workshops could be of a great growing potential, while touristic fairs are loosing their former popularity.My opinion is that Workshop participants were very active because, most significantly, they wanted to get as much information, that could be useful for them, as possible. Touristic fairs are more broad and casual, while thematic Workshops are much more focused on sharp issues.Thank you for the well-organized event! We wish you future success and new productive ideas!

Druskininkai Information Center is very grateful for the opportunity to participate in the Workshop. Meetings with belorussian partners were extremely productive. We renewed contracts and met a great number of new potential partners. Discussion between Belorussian and Lithuanian sides brought in a lot of positive and mutual understanding.
Thanks toTravel Connections for a great job, organizing the event!
