For the fourth edition of the benefit, it is expected to “exceed the numbers of Previaje 3” -one million people reached and an economic impact of $35,000 million pesos-, according to the Ministry of Tourism and Sports.

“Hand in hand with Previaje, tourism created tens of thousands of jobs during 2022, generating opportunities in every corner of the country. With the impulse of the arrival of millions of tourists from abroad, 2023 will be a record year for the sector”, said the minister days ago.

“This idea of ​​propping up the weaker months worked very well with Previaje 3 in October and November 2022, with more than a million people traveling through the country. That is why this is going to be replicated this first semester of 2023. We want to reinforce the idea that with Previaje there is no low season”, added Lammens.
