SLOVAKIA TRAVEL Expands Its Reach, Launching Representation in Scandinavia

SLOVAKIA TRAVEL Expands to Scandinavia



On January 16, 2025, SLOVAKIA TRAVEL celebrated the opening of its new representation in the heart of Scandinavia, Helsinki, Finland. This pivotal event occurred just ahead of the Matka 2025 trade fair, one of the most significant gatherings for tourism professionals in the region. The ceremony marked an important step for Slovakia’s national tourism organization in enhancing its presence in the Nordic markets, which include Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark.

Strengthening Ties With the Nordic Countries



The initiative aims to systematically promote Slovakia as an appealing tourist destination. According to Ivana Vala Magátová, the General Director of SLOVAKIA TRAVEL, the goal is to rejuvenate connections between Slovakia and the Nordic countries, fostering a high-quality representation of Slovakia in this vibrant market.

Magátová expressed confidence that through the hard work of their colleague Daniela Bezáková, who will lead the foreign representation, they would achieve significant progress in showcasing the richness of Slovakia’s cultural and natural attractions.

A Positive Reception



Dušan Krištofík, the Slovak Republic’s Ambassador in Helsinki, praised the decision to establish this representation. He highlighted the importance of such initiatives in bringing countries and people closer together, despite geographical distances. The growing relationship between Slovenia and Scandinavia has gained traction in recent years, making it a valuable investment in tourism.

The recent statistics reflect this growing interest, indicating that Scandinavian tourists predominantly visit Slovakia during the summer months, particularly enjoying the Bratislava region where they typically stay for about two nights. This trend illustrates the vast potential for increasing inbound tourism from these countries.

Tourism Growth and Future Prospects



SLOVAKIA TRAVEL is focused on creating a strong tourism framework not only within Slovakia but also abroad, promoting attractions such as its stunning landscapes, vibrant cities, and rich heritage. The Nordic countries are recognized as key markets that could significantly enhance Slovakia’s tourism footprint.

The ongoing efforts also aim to penetrate other geographic areas, including the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Israel, alongside the recent addition of Scandinavian countries. By extending their outreach and solidifying relationships with travel operators and agencies, SLOVAKIA TRAVEL anticipates a notable increase in the number of tourists drawn to Slovakia.

As the tourism landscape continues to evolve, SLOVAKIA TRAVEL is committed to adapting its strategies to effectively engage with potential visitors. Through targeted promotions and a stronger presence in foreign markets, the organization is poised to elevate the visibility of Slovakia as a leading destination in Europe.

The success of the new representation in Scandinavia will be monitored closely, with plans for further expansion as the demand for Slovakian experiences grows in Northern Europe. The partnership established will not only promote travel to Slovakia but also nurture friendships that transcend borders, enriching cultural exchanges between the Nordic countries and Slovakia.

SLOVAKIA TRAVEL is determined to position Slovakia as a must-visit location for both leisure and adventure seekers, ensuring that the nation’s allure is well-communicated to potential visitors across the globe.
