Vietnamese tourism businesses are making efforts to draw Chinese visitors with demand for deluxe services, as the segment is expanding after Covid-19.

According to the Vietnam Travel and Marketing Transports JSC (Vietravel), the high-spending group is expected to make up 5% to 10% of the company's total customers, doubling the figure from 3%-5% before the pandemic.

Vietnam news agency (VNA) reported Nguyen Hong Trang, a representative from the Asia Destination Management JSC, said the number of such clients accounts for 10% of her company's total but brings about a revenue of 10 times higher than normal customers.

Chinese tourists are among the highest-spending groups worldwide, spending an average of US$1,800 per person on an overseas trip.
