Since 2018, Kazakh Tourism has been implementing the “Tourism Ambassador of the Republic of Kazakhstan” initiative. It is aimed at promoting Kazakhstan as an attractive tourist destination, drawing the attention of travelers from all over the world to the diversity of the country’s natural and cultural wealth. Last year, Japanese blogger Yuji Natsuma took on this honorary mission.
«The institution of tourism ambassadors is an important tool for promoting the national tourism brand abroad. Among them are representatives of the tourism industry, figures of culture and education, media sphere and digital space. Tourism ambassadors of Kazakhstan are represented in a number of countries around the world. They, on a voluntary basis and with great enthusiasm, talk about our country to their audience,” noted the Chairman of the Board of JSC “NC ‘Kazakh Tourism», - Kairat Sadvakasov.
