The Seychelles Islands celebrate the annual “Endless Summer” roadshow in CIS region

The Seychelles Tourism Board appeared in full flare for the third edition of its annual “Endless Summer with The Seychelles Islands” events, which took place in Astana and Almaty (Kazakhstan) and Kiev (Ukraine) in August 2019.
The
events featured interaction with key partners from the Commonwealth of
Independent States (CIS) region
and presentations of the destination and its partners.
The “Endless Summer” roadshow seized the city
of Astana on August 26, 2019 and saw the presence of 45 companies. The events
included a tropical breakfast, a presentation of the Seychelles Islands
in the luxurious UNO restaurant, followed by a B2B workshop.
At the next stop, Almaty, participants had an
opportunity to partake in a workshop with one-one meetings followed by a networking
cocktail reception, which took place in “Afisha”, a popular restaurant that was
transformed into an exotic paradise, invoking the Seychelles atmosphere.

Taking
place in a vintage orangery, the core elements of Seychelles flora blended with
the rustic elements of the retro festival, namely its food trucks, scattered
beanbags and fairy lights, creating a mesmerising backdrop.
The
workshop and teasers were presented inside the orangery and was followed by
open-air festival with lounge zones, picnic style tables and sun lounges.
The food stalls also contributed to the
Seychelles Islands atmosphere with grill fish, seafood finger food, coconut ice
cream, tropical smoothies and lemonades.

This year in
Astana & Almaty we saw participation from 7° South, Pure Escapes, Savoy Resort & Spa Seychelles & Coral Strand Seychelles, Fregate Island Private, Etihad Airways
and Fly Dubai. Participants in Kiev included, 7° South, Pure Escapes, Fregate
Island Private and Turkish Airlines.
“We are very happy to get such an opportunity
to share a part of Seychelles with our dear partners from the CIS region. This
region has great potential for Seychelles and our presence continues on such
events with the support of the local partners will only help to penetrate the
region even further” said the STB representative in Russia and CIS, Ms Olga
Demina. “Year after year we record a positive growth from these important
markets as Kazakhstan and Ukraine and hope that the interest in Seychelles will
only keep growing”.
