NAITAS spearheads golf tourism in Guam

MANILA, Philippines — The National Association of Independent Travel Agencies (NAITAS), a prominent nationwide association that brings together travel agencies and tour operators from across the country, is making significant strides in promoting golf destinations in the Philippines and internationally.

In partnership with the Guam Visitors Bureau (GVB), NAITAS recently embarked on a four-day familiarization tour to Guam, offering participants a rich blend of historical exploration, gastronomic delights, shopping experiences and exceptional golfing opportunities.

One of the tour’s highlights was visiting two of Guam’s premier golf courses, the Finest Guam Golf and Resort and the Onward Mangilao Golf Club. At the Finest Guam Golf and Resort, participants had the opportunity to conduct a course inspection, led by Ben Mayoyo, and explore Hole 1, Hole 9, and the driving range. The Onward Mangilao Golf Club, headed by coach Nathan King, provided another exceptional golfing experience for the participants.

The tour offered much more than just golf with the participants being treated to a comprehensive historical tour, immersing themselves in the rich cultural heritage of Guam. They explored historical sites, such as World War II memorials, learning about the island’s fascinating history and the resilience of its people. The Two Lovers Point is capping up with the Tao Tao Tasi Beach Barbecue Guam Dinner show.

The tour provided ample opportunities for participants to indulge in retail therapy.
