They were accompanied by Philippine Ambassador to Israel Neal Imperial and Mr. Francisco Lardizabal, Head of the DOT – Market Development Group.

    According to Lardizabal, as reported by Philippine Information Agency,“Israel is becoming an important source of tourists for the Philippines with double-digit growth registered in the last three years.”

    He added that the familiarization tour is an initiative to establish a long-term relationship with Israeli travel agencies in working together towards the promotion of Philippine tourism.
