On this Webinar we showcased a complete Italian journey designed for GCC travellers: from tailor-made itineraries and seaside luxury to world-class culture and authentic shopping experiences.

What stood out most wasn’t just the products, but the commitment.

These partners believed in this market before the recovery, stayed close, asked questions, and chose to move first. That doesn’t go unnoticed.

And in this industry, it matters.

💡 Italy continues to evolve not just as a destination, but as an experience built around lifestyle, personalization, and emotion.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us. Let’s keep building, together.

It was a real pleasure speaking at the 12th edition of the Annual Gulf International Congress by on December 6th 2025, where we had the opportunity to showcase the potential of Italian tourism promotion across the GCC to a distinguished audience of Italian institutions and professionals, including lawyers, advisors, and consultants.

A sincere thank you to the Italian Chamber of Commerce for the kind invitation, for the organization and for the unexpected and much-appreciated plaque of recognition. Moments like these reinforce our commitment to sharing and promoting the very best of Italian tourism destinations and products in this region.

Looking forward to continuing this journey and to many more opportunities to celebrate Italian tourism in the GCC 🇮🇹✨
