The Global Association of Events & Hospitality Professionals (GAEHP), in association with the Chhattisgarh Tourism Board (CTB), conducted its Mega Chhattisgarh FAM Tour from 14th–18th July 2026, bringing together travel professionals, tour operators, destination promoters, and hospitality stakeholders from across India to explore the state’s immense tourism potential.
The specially curated familiarisation programme was conducted across North and South Chhattisgarh, enabling participants to experience the state’s diverse landscapes, tribal heritage, waterfalls, forests, spirituality, adventure tourism, and hospitality infrastructure. The initiative aimed to enhance destination awareness and encourage travel professionals to promote Chhattisgarh in the domestic and international tourism markets actively.
A key highlight of the programme was the GAEHP Chhattisgarh Tourism Networking Evening held in Raipur, where tourism stakeholders from Chhattisgarh connected with leading travel buyers and industry professionals from across India. The event facilitated meaningful business interactions, encouraged future collaborations, and strengthened partnerships between tourism suppliers, hospitality partners, and travel trade professionals. The session celebrated the successful completion of both North and South Chhattisgarh circuits. It reaffirmed the collective commitment to positioning Chhattisgarh as one of India’s fastest-growing tourism and MICE destinations.
Speaking on the successful completion of the initiative, Rajesh Arya, GAEHP President, said, “The Chhattisgarh Mega FAM Tour has been far more than a destination familiarisation programme. It has strengthened industry relationships, created new business opportunities, and inspired travel professionals to promote Chhattisgarh with greater confidence. From the pristine landscapes of North Chhattisgarh to the cultural richness of Bastar, the state has demonstrated its tremendous potential as a world-class destination for leisure, experiential, adventure, and MICE tourism.”
