GVB Conducts 2023 Korea Roadshow Showcasing Guam

GVB, alongside twelve local tourism partners, represented various Guam hotels and optional tours. The roadshow was from August 2-4, 2023.

With a goal to revitalize Korean arrivals and further develop routes to secondary cities, the Guam delegation met with over 300 travel agents and airline partners to provide a Guam update, re-establish relationships, and make new connections after a four-year hiatus since the last GVB Roadshow in 2019.

The Guam delegation was joined by the following GVB members — Core Tech (Dusit Thani Guam Resort, Dusit Beach Resort Guam, and Bayview Hotel), Crowne Plaza Resort Guam, Fish Eye Marine Park, Guam Ocean Park, Hoshino Resorts Guam, Hyatt Regency Guam, Lotte Hotel Guam, Onward Mangilao Golf Club, Pacific Islands Club Guam, Royal Orchid Hotel, Sentry Hospitality, and The Westin Resort Guam.

“Korea continues to be our top market and we are grateful for this opportunity to reconnect with travel agents, airline partners and media in prospective areas outside of Seoul.”

“The enthusiasm and responses we’ve experienced are very promising,” said GVB Board Director, Ho S. Eun. “Thank you to all the Guam partners who joined us and made the roadshow a huge success.”
