We qualify them and they leave for the countries of the region&#8221;, &#8211; Zak Topuzi.<\/p>\n<p>The number of tourists expected to come to Albania during the summer season has doubled. On online booking platforms, there is a 30% increase in foreigners who have chosen to spend their summer holidays in Albania.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the summer season there is an increase of 20-30%, this is positive, but we should not aim to increase the number of tourists but the quality&#8221;, said Topuzi.<\/p>\n<p>Tourism provides 22% of the total gross production in Albania and 43.6% of Albanian exports. For the head of the association of tourist operators, in order to have satisfied customers and loyal employees of Albania, the tourism industry should have more attention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Albania set a historic record last year with around 10 million tourists.
