Commenting on the competition Brad Miron, Vice President of Business Development at itravel2000, said:
“This is not only a great opportunity for our valued customers to participate in one of the biggest promotions about Mexico in Canada, but it also provides itravel2000 and the Mexico Tourism Board a database of consumers interested in Mexico that will allow us to send personalized deals, incentives and information about Mexico”
Guillermo Eguiarte, Mexico Tourism Board Toronto office Director, added:
“Last year 1.2 million Canadians went to Mexico because they love the country. We look forward to receiving many pictures of Canadians visiting the world-class resorts in the Pacific and Caribbean or the unique UNESCO World Heritage cities in the interior. Mexico offers countless exceptional experiences which have seen Canadian travelers returning to the country time and time again. This campaign also supports Mexico’s new institutional campaign called ‘Mexico, the place you thought you knew’.”
Jonathan Carroll, CEO of the Travelzest Group, commented:
“This type of competition raises awareness of one of the world’s most exciting and diverse countries and encourages people to look at it as a primary holiday destination. We at Travelzest are keen to open people to new travel experiences across the world through our recognised brands.”
