Therefore, tourism has become one of the spearhead economic sectors, contributing significantly to the socio-economic development of the province.

The Kien Giang Investment, Trade and Tourism Promotion Center coordinated with the Kien Giang Provincial Tourism Association, relevant departments, branches and units to organize a launching ceremony for the summer tourism program and announce programs to stimulate Kien Giang tourism in 2025.
After more than 1 month of launching a tourism stimulus program, tourism businesses have coordinated to build programs linking destinations, products and services, creating product packages, promotional combos, etc.
The launching ceremony of the summer tourism program promises to bring visitors interesting and different product packages and experiences. In particular, with tourism stimulus programs, we not only attract domestic tourists but also create conditions for international tourists to return and explore the beauty of Kien Giang.
With the message of Vietnam - Go to Love; Phu Quoc Paradise of the Sea; the tourism development stimulus program in 2025 is not only an opportunity for us to promote the natural, cultural and historical beauty of Kien Giang but also an invitation for all people and tourists at home and abroad to join hands to build the tourism industry into a spearhead economic sector of the province.
These programs will focus on unique tourism products of Kien Giang such as sea and island tourism, eco-tourism, cultural tourism and cuisine. At the same time, the province will also continue to improve the quality of tourism products and services, improve tourism infrastructure, and train high-quality human resources to meet the increasing needs of tourists.
Tourism businesses play a key role in the success of the stimulus program. I call on businesses to join hands to implement strategies to attract tourists, improve infrastructure, create creative tourism products, and more importantly, ensure service quality. At the same time, accommodation establishments and localities also need to work closely together to create a connected, convenient and attractive tourism system, Ms. Lua emphasized.
We hope that people will participate in strongly responding to the stimulus program, promoting the local image, while protecting and preserving cultural values and the natural environment for future generations.
Currently, Kien Giang province, especially Phu Quoc city, has fully prepared the necessary conditions to welcome and serve tourists during the 2025 summer tourism season. Local tourism businesses have also proactively improved the quality of services, ensuring the best experiences for tourists.
