The lack of Russian-speaking travel staff and tour guides is one of the impediments to attracting Russian visitors to the country, heard the Vietnam-Russia Tourism Cooperation and Development Conference in HCMC last Thursday.
The conference drew strong attention from local enterprises and tourism promotion agencies as the Russian market has developed strongly in recent years.
Nguyen Quoc Hung, deputy general director of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT), said that VNAT is running the 2013-2015 program to attract Russian visitors, targeting 330,000 arrivals in 2015 and one million arrivals before 2020.
