Support Holy Land Incoming Tour Operators (HLITOA) in improving services for Free Independent Tourists (FITs) in OPTs

HLITOA, through Tasdeer support, developed 3 tourism packages that target FITs. In addition to the packages design, Tasdeer support will be utilized to launch and operationalisation of the FIT-targeting packages to ensure ‘guaranteed departure’ times for these tours regardless of the demand. This will incentivise tour operators to promote and utilise these packages without the fear of loss in case they do not have the required number of tourists to cover the initial operating cost (tour guide). Over time it is expected that the demand for such products will cover the costs and create profits for the stakeholders.
