T&T: Tours of East Port-of-Spain approved for cruise ship tourists
Port-of-Spain Shopping Complex Limited (POSSCL) will welcome the first batch of tourists to its malls in East Port-of-Spain as early as next week.
Dianne Hendrickson, Manager of POSSCL, said on Monday that a team from her organisation held a successful meeting with Tourism Trinidad Limited (TTL).
She said TTL agreed to a proposal that would see visitors from cruise ships head to the East Side Plaza and the New City Mall on December 28. Hendrickson, a calypsonian who sings under the sobriquet Lady Wonder, said the visitors will be treated to a cultural programme. They will also be allowed to participate in a culinary experience at all levels, including the preparation of dishes.
She said the visitors will also be educated on the history of the malls and their impact on the development of East PoS.
The goal is to assist entrepreneurs to get more business and earn foreign exchange. The POSSCL is also working with the POS City Corporation regarding training for vendors and the safety and security of shoppers.
