5 June 2015, Friday
The Russians, in particular Kazan residents, proved to be more curious tourists than vacationers from other countries. This was confirmed by an on-line survey conducted by the tourist metasearch engine Momondo among more than 15 thousand people from 15 countries.
The respondents said what they were willing to spend most money on. It was found that 73% of respondents from Russia said that they wanted to spend more money on excursions and sightseeing. Less than 50% of foreign respondents were ready to actively spend money on exploring the area they were in. Other spending priorities of Kazan vacationers were food (39%), accommodation (26%), shopping (20%) and entertainment (11%). Least of all, Kazan tourists were willing to go to extra transportation expenses – both to get to their destination, and on trips during their vacations.
Traditionally, our compatriots were concerned about financial issues during vacations – only 2% of Kazan respondents did not worry about their vacation costs.
According to the results of the authoritative All-Russian WHERETOTRAVEL HOTELS AWARD, the Kazan Palace by Tasigo Hotel entered the top five best hotels in Russia, also winning the title of the best hotel in the Urals and the Volga region.
Following the opening of flights between Kazan and the capital of the UAE, Tatarstan was visited by representatives of the tourism industry of six Persian Gulf countries on a working visit. A delegation of 9 leading operators assesses the infrastructure and tourism potential of the republic.
