I have been attending this exhibition for the third time and every year it leaves only positive impressions. This year, the large amount of useful and up-to-date information is especially valuable, as it can be applied in our work and later used to provide tourists with reliable and high-quality recommendations. The exhibition offers an excellent opportunity to discover new destinations, establish direct contacts with partners, and expand professional networks. It is truly an effective platform for development and exchange of experience. I definitely plan to attend the exhibition again next year.
Although I had been invited to this exhibition for several years, I managed to attend it only now — for the first time, as a speaker. My impressions from participation are extremely positive. First of all, I would like to highlight the scale of the event: a large number of participants, including airlines, tour operators, and representatives of tourism ministries from different countries. The exhibition truly covers the entire industry and, in my opinion, is one of the key events in the tourism sector in our country. I would also like to emphasize the networking opportunities — I was able to meet and communicate with partners we have already worked with, as well as establish new professional contacts. I definitely plan to attend the exhibition again next year.
I have been working in the tourism industry since 2015 and have been attending this exhibition for more than ten years. For me, it is first, a professional platform where people come for up-to-date working information: updates on destinations, new offers, market changes, and industry innovations. We then use this knowledge in our work and share it with tourists. Given my experience in the industry, it is difficult to speak about fundamentally new destinations, however, new hotel concepts, changes in visa policies, and other initiatives that simplify travel are of particular interest. For example, agreements on simplifying the visa regime for charter flights between Kazakhstan and Bulgaria are being discussed, which may make travel more accessible and convenient for tourists. The exhibition remains an important tool for professional development, so I will definitely continue attending it in the future.
I have been attending this exhibition for the fourth time and can note that this year it turned out to be eventful and useful. I managed to obtain exactly the information that was lacking last year — this significantly increased the practical value of participation. The exhibition remains an effective platform for finding new partners: this year I managed to meet new companies and expand business contacts. At the same time, I would like to see a wider representation of certain destinations, particularly the USA and European countries such as the United Kingdom and Germany. This is especially important for my work, as I represent a tourism education company and actively work with these markets. Overall, participation in the exhibition helps to find new opportunities for cooperation, conclude contracts, and obtain up-to-date information. I plan to continue attending it annually.
I attend this exhibition every year and always watch with interest how it develops and expands. This year, the changes are especially noticeable — new large stands have appeared, and the number of exhibitors has increased, making the exhibition even more large-scale and content-rich. So far, no specific cooperation agreements have been concluded, but I expect meetings with a number of potential partners. In my work, I am engaged in attracting tourists to domestic events in Kazakhstan, so the representation of Kazakh regions is especially important for me. In the near future, I plan to have more detailed discussions with representatives of the Zhetysu region. Of course, I plan to attend the exhibition again next year.
I attend this exhibition every year. My impressions this year, as always, depend on the composition of participants — there are both regular exhibitors and new companies. For me, this is primarily an opportunity to communicate directly with representatives of different destinations and choose interesting options for future trips. I am currently planning a trip across Central Asia: in particular, there will be competitions in Samarkand in early November, so I am considering a route via Tashkent with a subsequent visit to Samarkand. I have already noticed the Uzbek stands, which are of interest. I am also considering trips across Kazakhstan and Asian countries. I would also note that the exhibition provides an opportunity to meet familiar faces, communicate with colleagues from different regions, and exchange experience. I will definitely plan to attend the exhibition again next year.
I have been attending this exhibition annually for 10 years. The exhibition remains very interesting and intense. I am particularly pleased with the luxurious stands of tour operators. They have become grandiose, with marquees and spectacular decoration. It is also very pleasant to see how domestic tourism is being developed in Kazakhstan – new hotels, hostels, tourist offices appear. This is really impressive. I have not had time to visit the business program yet, as I arrived recently, but the atmosphere at the exhibition is wonderful. I will definitely come here next year as well — it has already become a tradition!
I visited the KITF exhibition for the first time as I have recently opened a travel agency. The impressions are simply awesome. There were so many hoteliers and useful information that three days didn't seem to be enough to cover everything. At the exhibition I found new interesting directions for my work. We even agreed to discuss online collaboration, as we are now actively moving into the digital environment. This exhibition is incredibly productive, especially in tourism, where the market changes every year. There are new destinations that attract tourists, so I think visiting the exhibition is a must-have for any specialist in our industry. I will definitely be back next year!
I visited this exhibition for the first time and my impressions are great. A lot of new knowledge and interesting information. Such platforms definitely influence the development of the tourism sector. If exhibitions were held more often, they could attract even more people and help them learn about various destinations. If the exhibition is organized next year, I will definitely attend it.
The exhibition is going great. Although we only managed to spend half a day here today, we plan to return tomorrow to cover everything we didn't have time for. This is a very fruitful event: it was nice to meet familiar hoteliers, meet new ones, and make many useful contacts. I discovered new destinations such as Cuba and also met hotel representatives in Da Nang and other interesting places. It was incredibly helpful and informative. I would love to come to the exhibition next year. In addition to the exhibition itself, there is the opportunity to meet colleagues from the tourism industry, which makes this event even more valuable.
I visited this exhibition for the first time and it made an incredible impression on me. So many tour operators, information and emotions – it was just wonderful. At the exhibition I found new interesting destinations, such as Malaysia and Vietnam, and also got acquainted with tour operators I had not known about before. Now I plan to sign contracts with them. Such platforms are very useful for the development of tourism. For me, as a person who has recently opened a travel agency, this is a real boon. Here you can not only see everything with your own eyes, but also ask questions directly. I came to the exhibition especially from Uralsk and will definitely return next year.
This is the sixth time I have attended this fair, and it is always top-notch. There are an incredible array of suppliers and partners that the travel market needs. It is the perfect platform where travel agencies, airlines and system providers find each other. This year I found new partners, including the CEO of Air Astana. We had a pleasant conversation and found common ground. We also managed to conclude verbal agreements with three major partners. I definitely plan to attend this exhibition every year — it is an invaluable opportunity to develop business and establish useful connections.
It is the KITF exhibition that I am visiting for the first time. This is a new and very interesting experience for me. I'm still watching the exhibition, but already now I see a lot of interesting stands. There are exhibitors that I definitely plan to visit, because these are companies of interest to me. The exhibition is very lively!
We have been visiting this exhibition for the fifth year, and our director has been a visitor for more than ten years. We receive a lot of useful information here and have found new useful partners. We also managed to attend the events of the business program. Several contracts were signed within the framework of the exhibition.
I am visiting the KITF exhibition for the first time. Of course, the exhibition is very useful, here I met with several companies, for which I actually came. I did not attend the events of the business program, but the schedule is interesting. It was possible to conclude intentions for cooperation.
I am visiting the KITF exhibition for the tenth time. Every time there are new companies, this year there are a lot of new exhibitors, more than in the past. We always make arrangements at the exhibition, which is why it is valuable.
I have previously visited an exhibition in other areas, an exhibition on tourism for the first time. Everything is very interesting here. I am currently engaged in concluding contracts and expanding my connections. We are partnering and connecting so that our tourists have great opportunities and interesting new destinations. Thank you for the organization, everything is very interesting, there are a lot of different products and directions that will help the development of my business and the development of tourism in Kazakhstan as a whole.
My students regularly visit the exhibition, we have been coming for 8-9 years. Since this is an international exhibition dedicated to tourism, the excellent companies are presented, there are many proposed projects, and very interesting directions. You can view topics in various areas, including international tourism and tourism in our country. All this makes it possible to develop tourism in our country, domestic tourism in Kazakhstan and train strong specialists. We sign contracts with the companies we need, and our students have the opportunity to work in these companies.
This is the second time I have visited the KITF exhibition. I have found companies that I am interested in working with: KazUnion and Fun&Sun. I visited the events of the business program with great interest. Here we have entered into a franchise agreement with Fun&Sun.
I am visiting the KITF exhibition for the third time. There are such a large number of companies with which we can enter into partnership that there is enough work for ten years ahead. We sign contracts every 15 minutes. We have a company that sells services, we are now finding agents with whom we will partner for the next 5-10 years. The exhibition is an ideal platform for this.
I came to the KITF exhibition for the first time as part of a delegation from Kyrgyzstan. I was struck by the scale of the exhibition. Thank you for inviting us! We really liked the exhibition, we are glad that you are an event of such magnitude. We have also received new information and experience that we can share in Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan are friendly countries, brothers. In the future, we hope to develop tourism in our countries and cooperate with you. We wish good luck and prosperity to the exhibition!
I really liked the event, I'm visiting it for the first time. My visit was purposeful, I got acquainted with a large number of hotels, negotiations were held with exactly the hotels with which I planned. Unfortunately, there are not enough agencies and companies that I wanted to meet in person, but it's not scary. Preliminary agreements on cooperation have already been concluded. The geography of the participants is pleasing, after all, 22 countries are an excellent level.
It is the fifth year since I have been visiting the KITF 2023 exhibition. I come to get acquainted with hotels, with host companies, to conclude partnership agreements, to find new directions for myself, to be aware of where the market is moving, to find out what new reliable companies there are. In general, I liked everything very much. The organization, as always, is at the highest level, there are many participants, many activities at the stands, many photo locations for Instagram.
I have been visiting the KITF 2023 exhibition every year since 2015. The scale of the exhibition is always pleasing and impressive. The stands are bright and colorful. Regarding partners, unfortunately, there are few new ones, mostly the former “giants” - tour operators, with whom we have been working for a long time. It's nice to see old friends, but there were also new acquaintances, there were new partners in Azerbaijan, which pleases us. Because Azerbaijan is developing strongly now. I would also like to mention Jordan - a new wave in the field of tourism. The exhibition, as in previous years, was held at the highest level and impressed.
I came to Kazakhstan for the first time. I would like to express my gratitude for organizing the KITF 2023 exhibition - for lively impressions, exchange of experience and new business acquaintances. Everything is perfectly organized, I really liked it. I met many interesting companies, met many people from tourism. I have already exchanged contacts with companies with which I plan to conclude contracts in the future. I'm thinking of visiting the exhibition next year
I have been visiting KITF 2023 since 2008, for 15 years now. In my opinion, this year's format is slightly different. Lots of seminars. I am more interested in domestic tourism, I would like to see a large separate stand for each region of Kazakhstan. This year, international participants have such stands. I want to note that every year more and more new countries join, this is a huge plus. There are more positive impressions about the exhibition. I will definitely come next year.
Our company is based in Kyrgyzstan, we are visiting this exhibition for the first time and we have a very good impression of KITF. We hope that next year we will come as exhibitors, the platform is very well organized. The registration process for visitors is very convenient, there are a large number of participants, a lot of countries are represented. We are glad that we have found representatives from Azerbaijan, Georgia and our colleagues from Kazakhstan. We managed to find a lot of new acquaintances, discuss many topical issues, and all this in a small compact platform. It is very easy to find those who are needed on KITF. The only thing we lacked was representatives of hiking mountaineering, which is our field. We hope that the sports tourism section will expand next year. Next year we will definitely bring our products and have a stand!
There are many different and promising participants this year. As the director of a chain of hostels and hotels that cater to the domestic tourist flow, I was very pleased with the domestic directions presented. As for external tours, we can note the large exposition, all the major tour operators in our country have very large and comfortable stands. You can talk to each manager in a calm business atmosphere. The exhibition fully met all expectations, a lot of new contacts and acquaintances, excellent printed materials and a really professional organization of the event. This year's exhibition is more compact compared to 2019, but more informative.
I visit the KITF exhibition every year, as I work in the tourism industry. This year I enjoyed the exhibition, I was interested in the CIS, and I found representatives from Azerbaijan, Georgia and Uzbekistan. There were a lot of activities and contests on the platform, I also visited the events of the business program - I got a lot of useful information. I should also note that we found partners in outdoor activities. Our company is more engaged in tours of sacred places, and now we will expand services in the direction of outdoor, sports activities. We exchanged contacts and decided to cooperate in the future. It's all thanks to the KITF.
KITF 2022 exhibition is very cool! We have met many potential partners. Our tour company is from Qatar, we learned about the exhibition late, otherwise we would have participated with a stand. The exhibition is very worthwhile, many countries are involved. We met colleagues from Azerbaijan, Italy, Indonesia, learned a lot about Almaty, and next year we decided to come back for sure. I advise all travel industry professionals to visit this platform!
I really enjoyed the exhibition, I came here for the first time on the recommendation of colleagues. I work in tourism, I am interested in promising directions. The scale of the exhibition amazed me and I will definitely come next year.
