Sojourn:  Traveling  with the experts - “Award-winning travel agency opens its outbound center in Bali”

Operating in Bali since 1989, Smailing Tour has been a strong player in accommodating the needs of inbound travelers on the island.

Now with the rising trend of outbound travelers from the island, the company is expanding its business with the recent opening of Smailing Tour Ticketing and Outbound Center in Sanur, which caters to the needs of people traveling to other places in Indonesia and overseas.

Thanks to the increasing number of direct flights from the island to many cities worldwide, the outbound market in Bali has shown strong growth. Smailing Tour Ticketing and Outbound Center provides one-stop solutions for both corporate and leisure travelers, fulfilling every need during their trip to ensure a wonderful travel experience.

To keep up-to-date with the changing trends in travel, the Bali office is also a Destination Management Company (DMC), providing services for travelers who would like to explore places in Bali and beyond.

As the inbound division of Smailing Tour, DMC has the exceptional strength of creating the right products for each client, whatever the purpose of their visit to Bali, be it for a business conference, wedding, honeymoon, holistic retreat, sporting adventure or family holiday — as well as accommodating trips to many destinations nationwide beyond Bali.

The inauguration of this new facility also marks the company’s 40th anniversary. President director and CEO Anthony Akili remarked that as one of the largest tour operators in Indonesia, Smailing Tour continued to develop while facing the opportunities and challenges in the industry.

“This transformation allows us to be more competitive in the future and always able to accommodate the needs of every client, while supporting the government’s program to welcome 20 million tourists by 2020,” Anthony said.

Following the opening of its Yogyakarta office last year and Bali this year, Smailing Tour will launch new facilities in Bandung, Surabaya, Lombok, Balikpapan, Medan, Batam, Makasar, Manado and Labuan Bajo.
