Commenting on the special promotion, Mr. Simon Mills, Director for Northern Europe and the Middle East, Hong Kong Tourism Board said, “It was very important for us to work with Kanoo Holidays as their network extends across the GCC region and allows us to reach markets where Hong Kong is not too well known yet.
