HrTurizam TV / Watch the panel discussion: Career activities in tourism and the needs of the Croatian market

As we announced on Linkedin, hrtourism is expanding to video production through three video formats: espresso as a short format, thinking aloud (interviews, presentation of tourist services and products, video clips from events) and thematic destination documentary story in a longer format. 

The first foundations of the new video concept were laid in Umag at the UHPA Days, where we started with the first recording as part of the annual meeting of the Association of Croatian Travel Agencies, which took place from March 19 to 21, 2024. 

This year's UHPA Days gathered more than 150 participants - representatives of travel agencies, educational institutions, tourist boards, business partners and representatives of the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, Croatian Tourist Board, Croatian Chamber of Commerce, professional associations, media and other stakeholders of the tourism industry.
