The Tunisian Federation of Travel and Tourism Agencies has announced a strategic plan aimed at providing urgent and sustainable solutions to the difficulties faced by companies in the sector. This decision was made following a meeting of the federation's land transport committee to discuss the current state of the sector and the challenges it faces. The meeting involved a rich discussion on the main issues hindering the growth of tourist transport in Tunisia.
Key issues discussed included the aging fleet, unfair competition from the parallel sector, and the phenomenon of illegal subcontracting. Other concerns were the professional card for drivers, deadlines for granting privileges related to vehicle equipment, and the shortage of high-end cars and buses. The tourist transport sector has a vital fleet of large buses, luxury tourist cars, and occasional transport vehicles that support the logistics of travel agencies.
The federation emphasized the need to accelerate the implementation of administrative reforms and facilitations to enable professionals to update their vehicles and buses to international quality standards. This would improve reception and transportation services within the country. The sector plays a crucial role in supporting the tourism industry by providing transportation for visitors to various archaeological, beach, and desert destinations.
The strategic plan aims to address these challenges and provide a sustainable solution to the crisis facing the tourist transport sector. The federation is working to implement the plan, which includes measures to modernize the fleet and improve the quality of services. This move is expected to boost the tourism industry and enhance the overall experience for visitors to Tunisia.
