Tourism has rich potential in the BIMSTEC region, courtesy its natural splendor and rich historical and cultural ties. BIMSTEC Tourism Information Centre was established in July 2007 in Delhi to create a Network of Tour Operators among the BIMSTEC Member States to promote tourism in the region including the Buddhist Tourist Circuit and luxury cruise. The Conclave can deliberate on creation of BIMSTEC specific products in tourism, promotion of Public Private Partnerships in tourism and development of common safety protocols, BIMSTEC tour circuits and cruise tourism. The BIMSTEC region has the capability of earning USD 200 billion in tourism revenue by 2024.
