ECTAA is pleased to announce the conclusion of a two-year strategic partnership with the Moroccan National Tourist Office (ONMT). This collaboration further strengthens the close ties between European travel professionals and Morocco – a preferred destination for many key markets such as France, the Benelux countries and Italy. As part of this agreement, ECTAA and ONMT will join forces to promote Morocco as a destination of excellence, not only by highlighting its most iconic locations but also by showcasing lesser-known regions with rich cultural heritage and strong tourism potential. A particular focus will be placed on Morocco’s sustainability initiatives, which are part of an ambitious national strategy to promote responsible tourism.
