I exhibited at both Destinations Manchester & London for the first time and given the cost involved, was nervous. However I’m so glad I took the gamble, I have such a strong pipeline of leads for the next 12-24 months, which I would never have got otherwise. I also feel I’ve been able to access clients I wouldn’t otherwise be able to.

The two Destinations shows (Manchester & London) are great shows for us to promote Cyprus as an amazing holiday destinations for UK travellers and both events are an important part of our events calendar. We get excellent footfall on our stands at both shows, and we find visitors are highly engaged and focused on finding out more information that helps them plan their trips to Cyprus.
