The National Association of Nigerian Travel Agencies has commenced a seven-day retreat and familiarisation tour in Ghana as part of efforts to strengthen regional tourism partnerships, promote Nigerian travel brands across borders and accelerate the implementation of tourism policies across West Africa.

The retreat, hosted by Safari World, has brought together members of the association’s National Executive Council for a week-long engagement aimed at fostering stronger business relationships with key players in Ghana’s tourism industry while exploring opportunities to increase travel traffic between both countries.

Speaking during the reception of the delegation at Safari World Homes in Accra, NANTA President, Yinka Folami, said the visit was designed to move beyond policy discussions to practical initiatives capable of boosting tourism and trade across the sub-region.

According to him, the association’s leadership was in Ghana to advance the implementation of tourism policies while expanding NANTA’s marketing advocacy for Nigerian brands beyond the country’s borders.

“This mission is not a leisure trip. It is a deliberate step to implement and expand our association’s marketing advocacy for Nigerian brands across borders,” Folami said.
