With members in 129 countries, WTN (World Tourism Network) has become the voice for SMEs of the travel industry around the globe. Montenegro took a key role. The Minister of Economic Development and Tourism for the Republic of Montenegro, the Hon. Goran Đurović said why his country joined the WTN.
The minister said in a press statement: “Our vision, according to National Tourism Strategy, is to become a globally recognized destination up to 2025. I trust that WTN will assist us in reaching this goal.”
Hon. Goran Đurović said: “I welcome all WTN members to visit the last untouched pearl of Europe – Montenegro!” Montenegro is a European Country bordering Croatia, Bosnia- Herzegovina, Serbia, and Albania.
This Balkan nation with rugged mountains, medieval villages, and a narrow strip of beaches along its Adriatic coastline is also a significant travel and tourism destination. The capital city is Podgorica.
The Bay of Kotor, resembling a fjord, is dotted with coastal churches and fortified towns such as Kotor and Herceg Novi. Durmitor National Park, home to bears and wolves, encompasses limestone peaks, glacial lakes, and 1,300m-deep Tara River Canyon.
Montenegro has approximately 600,000 citizens. According to the Montenegro’s tourism website montenegro.travel, it’s so small one could drive across it in the afternoon. Although a small country, it is incredibly diverse.
