Singapore’s leading travel portal TripZilla announces the official launch of its TripZilla Vietnam site today.

(TRAVPR.COM) VIETNAM - January 13th, 2014 - Featuring over 2,000 travel deals and tour packages from over 50 Vietnam based tour agencies, TripZilla Vietnam is its first non-English travel portal, catering to the local Vietnamese market. Besides listing tour packages from tour agencies, it also aggregates travel deals from group-buying websites, credit-card companies, airlines, hotels, tourism boards and travel insurance companies.

Winnie Tan, founder of TripZilla said, “We are really excited about launching TripZilla Vietnam for the Vietnamese market. We have seen phenomenal growth in our Singapore (TripZilla.sg) and Malaysia (TripZilla.my) TripZilla portals, and are bullish about the prospects in Vietnam.

With a population of 92.5 million, Vietnam has internet penetration reaching 31.2 million and a fast GDP growth of 5.2%. As middle class wealth and internet penetration increases, we expect to see more consumers using online channels to plan and book their travels in the medium term. This makes Vietnam a natural choice for TripZilla’s expansion as we see a huge potential market with untapped opportunities for online travel industry.”
