Luxury tourism products group

According to Mr. Nguyen Phuc Hoang, Chairman of the People's Committee of Vung Tau City (Ba Ria - Vung Tau), for the group of high-class tourism products, the city is currently focusing on developing high-class, famous tourism services to meet the needs of high-class tourists and create a classy and luxurious experience. "This is a novelty in the chain of existing tourism products and activities that are also lacking not only in Vung Tau City but also in Vietnam. Investing in building these service products requires Vung Tau to focus and pioneer to create a competitive advantage for itself," said Mr. Hoang.

Vung Tau residents believe that local cuisine is very unique and diverse, but not really "famous", so the city needs to emphasize promoting the unique specialties of the region, creating unique characteristics for each area, combined with cooking classes to attract tourists who love food to "experience culture through food". Vung Tau City has tourism activities related to taking quick photos and sharing on social networks, as an interesting destination for social media users, thereby creating a spread of positive information about the city. However, this is only at the "spontaneous" level as tourists discover on their own, due to the surrounding infrastructure not being adequate. Therefore, it is necessary to have a strategy to learn and develop these tourist destinations in a systematic, connected way, creating inspiration to tell a meaningful "story".

In addition, Vung Tau City also needs to focus resources on developing high-quality resort tourism services to create a unique feature, because this product is currently not outstanding in terms of service quality. In addition, Vung Tau already has unique tourism activities such as mountain climbing, cycling, golfing, etc. However, it is necessary to increase the quality of infrastructure; provide information on ancillary services to bring newer, truly unique experiences to visitors to create a difference compared to the current products of Vung Tau and compared to other destinations.

Smart event product group

According to the People's Committee of Vung Tau City, in the city's development strategy, it is necessary to create a tourism ecosystem with many innovations, including new, unique and attractive tourism products and experiences. The goal is to provide visitors with different experiences and create excitement and desire to return to Vung Tau. This group of products is also considered a necessary and seamless product group compared to the tourism development strategy of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province, so this group of products can be expanded to develop for the entire province.

Focus on exploiting the potential of MICE tourism development in Vung Tau through organizing multinational or international conferences, seminars, exhibitions and events in the city. This is a way to attract business visitors and create demand for accommodation, food and related entertainment activities. At the same time, focus on organizing international events, events related to art, technology, Miss World, fashion as well as many other fields to attract the interest and participation of international visitors, while enhancing the image and position of Vung Tau.

Smart cultural and heritage tourism product group

The city needs to focus on making the most of and exploiting the unique religious, historical and heritage features of Vung Tau through the application of technology, connection points; stories through religious tourism programs, visiting historical sites and exploring the city's unique cultural heritage. In addition, it is necessary to recreate the French heritage road (can ask for sponsorship and support from UNICEF or other international organizations to implement, both to have funding for implementation and as a form of promoting the city). All of these products will introduce visitors to the rich history and unique culture of Vung Tau, thereby creating excitement and connection with the locality.

It is necessary to develop and encourage tourists to be responsible for the local community and the ecological environment. They can participate in environmental protection activities, serve the community and share knowledge about local history and culture with tourists. The goal is to create a sustainable tourism environment and create positive interactions between tourists and the local community, making them love Vung Tau more.

Vung Tau people are proud of their unique and diverse cuisine. Therefore, organizing culinary events, exploring unique culinary locations; encouraging visitors to participate in the production process and experience local dishes will create unique and memorable culinary experiences for visitors and at the same time promote the development of a sustainable local economy.
