Hon. Abdulkarim Shah noted that, “It is critical for us as the TTB Board, to help keep up the momentum for Destination Tanzania in the US market, which in 2013 was the number one source market for our country,  if we are to succeed in continuing to generate more tourism arrivals from the United States, especially in the face of stiff competition with other African  and long-haul destinations that have much larger budgets, the key is to be focused and selective, and maintain a proactive presence.”
The  high level tourism delegation program also included a diverse range of  travel industry partners including Questex, the publishers of Travel Agent Magazine and Luxury Travel Advisor as well as the organizers of the Tanzania Specialist Travel Agent University program, which educates travel agents about Tanzania and how to better sell Destination Tanzania. Tanzania to date has 2,510 graduates of this course. The TTB delegation also had productive meetings with Terry Dale, President, United States Tour Operators Association (USTOA) and Eddie Bergman, Executive Director, the Africa Travel Association (ATA). TTB is a member of both Travel Industry associations.
