Tourism: African Nation of Djibouti Makes WTM Debut


The tiny country of Djibouti has been dubbed one of the world’s least visited nations – but now it wants to change that status by exhibiting at WTM London – the events where Ideas Arrive. Last year it celebrated the 40th anniversary of its independence from France, and is looking to develop its tourism industry as one of its growth sectors. It is estimated that the country, bordered by Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia, attracts only about 73,000 arrivals each year – but it has a climate, landscape, history and beaches that will appeal to travellers worldwide. Swimming with whale sharks is one of the highlights for tourists in Djibouti. Other activities include scuba diving, fishing, hiking and bird-watching. It also boasts remarkable geological landscapes with mountains, volcanoes, salt lakes and deserts. Djibouti is what it always was, a trading post where different cultures and empires collide. A heady mix of African, Arabic and French influences give Djibouti City an exotic atmosphere and vibe. Djibouti might be small in terms of country size but everything about it is huge. It’s great that the Djibouti government is looking to tourism as one of the key sectors to boost its economy. The 2018 WTM will help Djibouti with its aims, and ensure plenty of networking and business deals are facilitated during the event. International airlines that serve Djibouti include Air France, Turkish Airlines and Kenya Airways, while the capital Djibouti City has hotels from chains such as Sheraton and Kempinksi. WTM London now hosts 187 countries and regions and will facilitate more than £3 billion in industry deals. Ideas Arrive at WTM London.

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.

Good location astounding but the staffs are rude and they make me wait so long for the service. They charge me more than what is on the website and did not refund me the manager is not helping with the issue

Thank you for sharing such a detailed review about ethiopian airlines in your post. I am an avid traveller and keep reading flight reviews to assess the options available. Your review particularly drew my attention because you have shared so many pictures to capture every aspect of the flight experience. It is a very nice effort.

I am really tempted to book the next ethiopian airlines ticket and relive your journey. The pictures shared with the post also reflect that you truly enjoyed the travel. Great post! I also like the fact that you have covered nuances about the food and entertainment service through the pictures. It helps people know what to expect on their travel by this airline.
