CRETE, GREECE – This 2024 summer season, travelers are invited to experience the perfect balance of tradition and minimalist luxury at the newly opened Phāea Traditional House in the ancient Cretan village of Κoutouloufari. Seamlessly blending with its stone surroundings, this residence, accommodating up to five guests, is deeply rooted in the destination as part of the conscious luxury Greek hospitality brand Phāea. The island’s traditions underpin everything, ensuring that guests feel more akin to residents than visitors as they stroll from their home into the village, embracing island life as it’s meant to be lived, slowly.

Meticulously restored, this enchanting, self-catered house showcases design that pays homage to a bygone era while incorporating modern-day amenities. Hand-woven textiles – revered by collectors – punctuate the rooms, offering a comforting nod to this time-honored tradition. Ceramics and wooden furniture also accent the living area, each piece representing the celebration of craft and culture of Crete.

Guests will find a fully equipped kitchen, allowing them to make themselves at home and collect local produce for a Cretan-inspired feast. The living room, complete with a fireplace, provides an inviting space for socializing or unwinding after a day exploring the undiscovered gems of East Crete.

Stylish and private, the Phaea Traditional House offers couples and families alike the comforts of a holiday home with all the elements of escapism. Imagine long, languid afternoons at nearby Hersonissos Beach before meandering back home through the village’s narrow streets and tree-lined squares where locals meet to sip raki. Guests can look up and be in awe of the rugged beauty of the Pyrgias mountains where nature abounds.

On April 9th 2024, BestPrice Travel promoted its “Taste Vietnam” campaign in New York Times Square, proudly presenting the image of Vietnam to the whole world.

Though it was not the first time Vietnam appeared on a billboard at New York’s Times Square, this one came differently. In just 15 seconds, the country was presented with a combination of all landscapes, cultures, and cuisines in one message “Taste with BestPrice Travel”.

Burning desire to bring Vietnam tourism worldwide
Promoting the image of Vietnam at New York Times Square is the initial move in BestPrice Travel’s internalization strategy – the travel company’s genuine desire to make Vietnam’s beauty known to the world.

As an online travel agency, BestPrice Travel provides cruises, tours, and other services for foreign tourists visiting Vietnam and Southeast Asia.

With advanced technology and professional staff, the company has managed to provide services for thousands of inbound tourists every year, receiving numerous certificates and awards, namely 8 years of Travelers’ Choice on TripAdvisor ‘til 2023, nomination for the World Travel Awards 2024 as Vietnam’s Leading Tour Operator & Vietnam’s Leading Travel Agency, and the Prospect Travel Agent Award at the Vietnam International Travel Market 2024.

After 14 years of continuous growth, BestPrice Travel decided to renew the image of the company as well as Vietnam tourism, getting closer to its customers, who live thousands of miles away. Whereby, in February 2024, the “Taste Vietnam” campaign kicked off, targeting European, US, and Canadian markets.

“Taste Vietnam” – The combination of Vietnamese values
Beyond a promotion campaign, “Taste Vietnam” is a chance for BestPrice Travel to provide its customers with genuine values of Vietnam, bridging the distance gap and forging the bond between foreign tourists and the country.

Through “Taste Vietnam” tour packages, visitors are entitled to multisensory experiences, from admiring the magnificent landscapes to tasting the excellent cuisine and joining the off-the-beaten-track traditional activities.

In addition, it is not only experiential but also sentimental values that “Taste Vietnam” could bring to its customers. With every booking successfully purchased, US $1 will be used for charitable purposes. This is a self-run activity of BP Group – the holding company of BestPrice Travel, intending to support underprivileged individuals in Vietnam.

At the moment, BPG Foundation, the fund community under BP Group, is associating with Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation, which rescues, protects, and supports homeless children as well as victims of trafficking in Vietnam. Accordingly, with US $1 from your pay, you would indirectly give a hand to better the life of thousands of Vietnamese kids and people in need.

Save the children’s lives through “Taste Vietnam” campaign
The potential of Vietnamese tourism has never been greater. As a leading company in the industry, BestPrice Travel is relentlessly taking the chance to spread the beauty of Vietnam to the whole world while contributing to the country’s social development. More than ever, your booking matters right now. Let’s book the trip and join the hashtag #TastewithVietnam!
