In its bid to push for tourism economy in the ‘Sun Shine’ state, which is known for its unique endowments in different spheres, Destination Ondo has unveiled uniquely curated tour bus and car services for tour operators and allied service providers both domiciled in and outside the state for the purpose of tour operations within the state tourism circuit.

Over time, destination Ondo has continued to extend the frontiers of developing and promoting tourism business in Ondo State, with the introduction of innovative and creative product lines.

Speaking on this new development, the Founder of Destination Ondo, Otunba Wanle Akinboboye, is also the strategic consultant to Ondo State governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, on Tourism, said the new product line is aimed at addressing logistics challenges being experienced by tour operators in the state.

“The challenges of logistics experienced by most tour operators have been solved with the introduction of Destination Ondo bus and car services. The services are expected to run for the benefit of the tourists and tour operators.”

“Also, there is an option of a bespoke service, which is an all-inclusive package covering accommodation in a top-rated hotel of choice, food and drinks, tours, entertainment, nightlife shows and such other personalised services on request. To benefit from this unique offer, tour operators are only expected to sell the package and provide the tourists, while Destination Ondo takes up the duty of chaperoning the tourists and ensuring that they are avail of the best services on offer and a memorable experience of Ondo State that will last a lifetime.”
