The Browns Group hotel in Dambulla, The Paradise Resort &
Spa has recently hosted a training for staffs of all leading Online Travel
Agency (OTA) in addition to an inspection visit. The main objective of the
two-day training session was to increase awareness and educate the OTAs on the
area as well as how to best promote it.
With the recent fall in tourist arrivals, The Paradise Resort
& Spa under a partnership with experienced outdoor sports facilitator
Adventure Education, numerous adventure activities will be offered within the
resort to attract the growing market for adventure tourism and to provide
comprehensive team building programs to cooperates around the world as well as
exciting getaways for families. Camping, backwoodsman cooking, mountain biking,
hiking, ATV rides, archery, air rifles and paintball are included in the
activities.
As a new key initiative by the sales and marketing team of
Browns Hotels, the goal is to increase the global presence of Dambulla on
online platforms and thereby attract more people to visit.
Commenting on efforts to raise Dambullas profile Browns
Hotels Head of Sales and Marketing Devin Anshan said, "The Dambulla area is
beautiful and steeped in the history of our nation but as countries become
increasingly more competitive in attracting tourists, we, too, must become more
creative in offering incentives for people to visit the area. We believe that
our partnership with Adventure Education will help give tourists that extra
nudge to visit Dambulla."
Expressing his thoughts on the location and the initiative
from Browns Hotels, Adventure Education founder/Director Training and
Operations Raajiv Wanigasekera said: "The area surrounding Paradise Resort is
beautiful and perfect for outdoor activities. The resort itself is built to
blend in with its surroundings offering very little disruption to the forest
and wildlife that inhibit it. This allows us the opportunity to observe and
partake in some of Mother Natures wonders. This is an opportunity that would
be missed at other resorts which disrupt and displace wildlife with buildings
that dont account for nature in their construction."
Adventure Education was launched in 2003 as the brainchild of its two founders, both equally passionate to share their love for nature and adventure. Their facilitation has led to the companys presence in the forefront of its field, with team development activities, adventure and out-of-the-box corporate experiential indoor and outdoor initiatives.
