<strong>Awarded by Her Royal Highness Princess Ubol Ratana at the International Tourism Borse (ITB 2016)</strong>

Two German individuals and one major German tour operator with close cultural ties to Thailand were conferred the inaugural “Discover Amazing Stories Awards” by Her Royal Highness Princess Ubol Ratana at the International Tourism Borse (ITB 2016), the world’s largest travel show held in Berlin.
The two individuals include one German chef who specialises in Thai cuisine and another German with a passion for studying Thai elephants. The tour operator is Meier’s Weltreisen, one of the country’s best known companies.
The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has launched these “Discover Amazing Stories Awards” to honour companies and individuals in the German tourism industry for their years of steadfast support in promoting Thailand and Thai culture/heritage. The Awards also mark the “Discover Thainess Year” and the campaign to promote Thailand as a “Quality Leisure Tourism Destination.”
Mr. Yuthasak Supasorn, TAT Governor, said “These awards are in line with our shift towards more story-telling about all things Thai. It is also our way of showing our deep appreciation to all those who have supported Thailand and its tourism industry.”
