The rate of booking tours for the May holidays in Abkhazia exceeded last year by 30%, said the Minister of Tourism of the Republic Teimuraz Khishba. At the end of the season, the country expects to receive 1.5 million tourists.
“We have a serious increase for May. At the moment, we have 30% more applications for holidays in Abkhazia than in the corresponding period last year … As for June, there is more than a 50% increase, ”the minister said (quoted from “Prime”).
Sukhumi expects that the figures for the upcoming season will be comparable to (or exceed) those of the “super-successful” season of 2021, when 1.5 million tourists visited Abkhazia. At the end of 2022, there were 858 holiday accommodation facilities in the republic, Mr. Khishba specified.
“Most of all accommodation facilities in Abkhazia belong to economy class facilities. At the same time, there are world-class facilities in Gagra that can claim four stars,” the minister added.
