said: “Our participation in ATM comes in support of our partners from the travel, tourism, hospitality and government sectors who will collectively promote Ajman – the best-kept secret of the UAE’s tourism industry.

“Our participation also comes against the backdrop of continuous growth in the tourism industry, which is a major contributor to the emirate’s GDP as well as the recently announced Public-Private Partnership law that came into effect from January 2023 that will boost investment in tourism projects in the coming years.”

NSAS Tourism rolls out new booking portal

Egypt-based travel agency NSAS

Tourism has developed a unique and innovative B2B system, NDCport.com, allowing tourism businesses to access a host of experiences from around the world in one single platform.

Eng. Seif Bahgat, CEO of NSAS Tourism, said: “With our one-of-akind B2B system, you can now explore the world in one click. Our team has worked tirelessly to craft this portal that promises to revolutionise the travel and tourism industry. We are confident that the system is a game changer, and we invite you to join us in exploring the future of travel.”

Along with the new portal, NSAS Tourism is also highlighting all travel and tourism-related services in Egypt.

The Ajman Department of Tourism Development (ADTD) is presenting pioneering tourism projects focused on sustainability at ATM. The projects align with the sustainable tourism guidelines outlined in the Ajman Tourism Vision 2030, which will see the emirate emerge as an international tourist destination focusing on sustainability and eco-tourism.

Ajman has been named the fourth safest city in the world for 2023, bypassing several regional peer cities by global research portal Numbeo.com.

Tourism in Ajman has been growing steadily due to the emirate’s increasing number of attractions, including beaches, mangroves, hotels, resorts, restaurants, souks, entertainment facilities and new developments that cater to both domestic and international tourists.

Ajman is home to 44 hospitality establishments ranging from one-star to five-star hotels, resorts and luxury hotel apartments, with 3,997 rooms and 250 establishments that serve a growing number of regional and international tourists.

Following stellar growth in 2022, Ajman’s hotels and serviced apartments recorded a three per cent increase in hotel revenues in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, mostly due to the higher demand that is pushing the average daily room rate, making investment in hotels and the tourism industry more profitable.

Discussing the team’s sustainability efforts, Bahgat said: “We’ve implemented several measures focused on promoting sustainable tourism practices and reducing our energy consumption. We’ve also partnered with local suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability, including hotels and transportation providers that meet our environmental criteria.

“We actively promote ecotourism initiatives to our clients and encourage them to minimise their environmental impact while travelling. Overall, we’re committed to continuing to seek out new ways to reduce our environmental impact and work towards a more sustainable future, while continuing to provide our clients with enjoyable and responsible travel experiences.”
