“The Travel Detective”, one of the most successful American travel shows starring Peter Greenberg, America’s most honoured front-line travel news journalist, is being filmed in Dubrovnik from 23 to 27 October. This guest performance is realized in cooperation with Croatia Tourist Board and the Dubrovnik Tourist Board with one of the most popular American TV channels, PBS, on which “The Travel Detective” is shown.
“It is extremely important to maintain visibility in these market circumstances, as well as targeted promotion of Croatia as an attractive and safe tourist destination. I’m sure the effects of the show will be positive for both Dubrovnik and our country in many ways”, said the director of the Croatian Tourist Board Kristjan Staničić.
The director of the Dubrovnik Tourist Board, Ana Hrnić, welcomed the multiple Emmy-winning investigative reporter and producer while stressing the importance of promoting Dubrovnik in the American market. “US market is very important to us and we hope that with the improvement of the epidemiological situation in the future the number of American tourists will also rise,” Hrnić concluded.
