Valentino Danchev

As a native of Sofia, Bulgaria, Kaloyan Valentinov Danchev may not have always been a connoisseur of Mexico’s eclectic and evolving cuisine, but that was before he became a naturalized citizen of his adopted country. Today, he is the CEO of Fidelis Marketing Group , a business group that sells tourist facilities of the highest quality and tours to the best attractions in Mexico. Specifically, Fidelis is the exclusive marketing company for Vida Vacations, a premier vacation club that offers its members some of the most-coveted accommodations in Latin America. His position brings him into contact with some of the best dining options in Mexico, and he makes it his business to explore the locale cuisine in order to expand his culinary repertoire. As Valentino Danchev explains, traditional Mexican fare has a recurring theme: corn, beans, and chilies, or chili peppers. It’s believed that these three staples have been a part of Mexican diets ever since the ancient Aztecs discovered that

Mexico is one of the world’s most popular destinations to visit for tourists. In a chart provided by Statista: Number of United States Citizens Traveling to Mexico from 2002 to 2017 , the number of visitors in millions almost doubled from 18.5 million in 2002 to 35.05 million in 2017. According to Mexican Tourism Officials Predict 45 Million International Visitors in 2019 , there is going to be a 5.8% increase in tourist arrivals, and it is expected to have around 45 million international visitors in 2019. Sustainable Cities in Mexico that are Ideal for Tourists According to Sustainable Tourism Destinations: Mexico , national, regional, and local authorities are including sustainable initiatives in their governance in hopes of converting cities in Mexico into places devoted to respecting the environment and the inhabitants that live there. Guanajuato, Zacatecas – Guadalupe, Valle de Mexico, Saltillo, and Monterrey are examples of cities that are beginning to initiate sustainable

What is a travel-marketing firm? It sounds like a silly question until you realize that a quick internet search garners nearly no generic explanation. Almost all the results are found by combing through travel marketing websites to see what they have to say for themselves. The reason for this could be the simple fact that a travel-marketing firm is exactly what it sounds like it is: a business that helps travel companies market their services. Nevertheless, as with any venture, achieving success in business is harder to do than to define. The Millennial consumer is a tough nut to crack. Being too smooth (read “salesy”) will make them suspicious. Being too retro (read “old-timey”) will make your company virtually inaccessible to them. Realistic and idealistic, practical but romantic, Millennials are starry-eyed, tech-savvy paradoxes that bemoan technology’s ability to isolate people while using it to connect with others in a myriad of ways. The bottom line is that they use techno

The relationship of millennials with travel is a complex one. They love to explore the world yet unemployment is at a high. The older generation calls them lazy and entitled, yet prey on their willingness to shell out hard earned cash to backpack and globe-trot. It is far from simple but the predicament doesn’t stop them from packing and flying. According to statistics, millennials value broadening their horizons more than the previous age group. A research by WYSE Travel Confederation and UNWTO revealed that from USD190 billion in 2009, the total value of international youth travel — millennials and Gen Z — jumped to a high of USD280 billion in 2017. It is expected to hit USD400 billion by 2020 with 370 million youth traveling abroad. The growth in the number of travelers from this demographic has helped boost the tourism industry across the globe. Another tourism report published by The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) in 2016 confirmed that tourism has been one of the

Making travel plans? Maybe you should consider Mexico. According to an annual report conducted by the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), Mexico has leapt from the eighth to the sixth most popular travel destination in the world, following record-breaking tourist arrivals in 2017. This upsurge shouldn’t surprise us, says Mr. Kaloyan Valentinov Danchev, CEO of Fidelis Marketing Group , which specializes in luxury vacations at some of Mexico’s hottest resort communities. Despite an ongoing battle against crime, Mexico’s travel and tourism industry has been expanding since the first half of the twentieth century, when the government launched its first travel initiatives . In the last five years, the government has redoubled its efforts, overcoming a pre-2014 downslide to regain a top-ten slot as one of the world’s most visited spots. Per UNWTO, the other nine contenders are France, Spain, the US, China, Italy, the UK, Turkey, Germany, and Thailand. Another article
