Preventing the situation of ripping off
During the April 30 and May 1 holidays, the number of visitors to Quang Binh is forecast to increase sharply. To prepare well for the peak tourist season, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism (DTC) of Quang Binh province has implemented many measures to improve service quality, prevent price suppression and price suppression that negatively affect the image of the destination.
Speaking to Lao Dong Newspaper, the leader of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Quang Binh province said that since the first quarter of 2025, Quang Binh tourism has recorded positive growth compared to the same period in 2024.
It is expected that from April to September, the number of visitors will continue to increase, especially during major holidays, many special tourism events will be held.
In that reality, service quality management, especially price control and behavior towards tourists, has been identified by the Department as a key task.
The Department has proactively worked with localities and businesses since the beginning of April, thoroughly grasping the spirit of absolutely not allowing arbitrary price increases or pressuring tourists.
Tourism businesses, from accommodation, food and beverage to transportation, and tourist attractions, are required to seriously list service prices and sell at the correct listed prices.
"We require establishments to publicize price lists in easy-to-see and easy-to- read places; absolutely do not hold rooms, do not take advantage of many customers to create virtual fever, force prices. If violations are detected, they will be strictly handled, even suspended" - said the leader of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
In addition to tightening price management, Quang Binh also focuses on improving service quality. The Department has implemented training courses and guidance on civilized and friendly tourism operations for the tourism industry's workforce since the beginning of the year.
Maintaining the image of Quang Binh tourism
The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism clearly announces a very clear message: every citizen, every tourism employee is the image ambassador of Quang Binh. A friendly smile, a civilized action is more valuable than any promotional campaign.
Not only relying on propaganda and mobilization, the province also requires functional forces to strengthen interdisciplinary inspection and examination work at tourism hotspots such as Phong Nha - Ke Bang, Nhat Le, Bao Ninh, etc.
In addition, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism also directed accommodation businesses to proactively review and maintain facilities, ensure fire safety, environmental sanitation, and upgrade customer service. adventure tourist destinations and water sports activities are required to increase rescue personnel and periodically check safety equipment.
Quang Binh tourism industry is not about growing the number of visitors but instead sacrificing the quality of services or the image of the destination.
The biggest goal of the local tourism industry is to make every tourist coming to Quang Binh feel the friendliness, civilization, and safety - the core values that make up the Quang Binh tourism brand today.
