Buleleng - On September 21, 2024, at Tanjung Budaya, Pemuteran Village, Gerokgak, Buleleng, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenparekraf) officially launched the 3B tour package connecting Banyuwangi, West Bali and Buleleng. The event was attended by various related parties, including tourism managers and local governments.
The 3B tour package is designed to improve connectivity and the economy in the three regions, with the hope of attracting more domestic and international tourists. Connectivity between these regions is strengthened through the development of transportation links, such as inter-regional ferry and bus lines, as well as the promotion of tour packages that cover destinations in Banyuwangi, West Bali and Buleleng.
The tour starts from Marina Boom Port in Banyuwangi, sails through the waters of West Bali, and ends at Tanjung Budaya, Pemuteran, Buleleng. This route offers a faster and more convenient experience for travelers, avoiding the congestion at Ketapang-Gilimanuk Port.
In his speech, the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, said that this tour package not only offers easy access, but also provides a more enjoyable and integrated tourist experience. “This package was originally designed to go directly to Lovina, but due to high market demand for the West Bali National Park area, we decided to adjust the route at this launch,” Sandiaga said.
The program also includes improving port facilities, providing adequate accommodation, and developing new tourist attractions in each region. Collaboration between the government and tourism businesses is expected to maximize the region's potential, enrich the tourist experience, and accelerate local economic growth.
With the 3B tour package, tourists can now explore the natural and cultural beauty of Banyuwangi, West Bali, and Buleleng more easily, while supporting the development of leading destinations in the three regions.
