Dubrovnik Travel Joins Euromic as Member for Croatia
FEBRUARY 16, 2009 - Euromic, the destination management Partnership in Europe and the Mediterranean basin, voted to admit Dubrovnik Travel, Croatia's leading DMC and PCO, as its 29th official Member.
Croatia is a booming European destination, drawing nearly 10 million international visitors each year. In addition to offering many newly renovated properties, Croatia is easily accessible from international gateways and is just short flight away from dozens of major European cities. MICE business is a fast growing sector of Croatian tourism. Meeting and incentive planners looking for something fresh to 'wow' their clients are increasingly eager to take advantage of the unique fusion of Central European culture and the stunning, luxurious Dalmatian coastline, a popular excursion for Mediterranean cruise programs. Visitors are especially attracted to the Old City in Dubrovnik, called 'the Pearl of the Adriatic' by Lord Byron, was the medieval rival to Venice in culture and commerce and has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
"Dubrovnik Travel is proud to become part of the Euromic tradition of excellence,' said Daniel Marusic, CEO of Dubrovnik Travel. Petra Podkubovsek Medic added, 'This is a true testimonial to our years of hard work and dedication, and to our current position as Croatia's leading destination management company. We look forward to the exciting new opportunities that membership in Euromic will offer us.'
