French tourism professor: Iran safe for foreign travelers

Mashad, Nov 24, IRNA The Islamic Republic of Iran has done a good job in providing security for the foreign tourists, says Dominique Creuser, a Montpellier University Professor.

'One of the indicators of sustainable tourism is guaranteeing the security of tourists,' Creuser told the Islamic Republic News Agency on Tuesday on the sidelines of a scientific meeting on France's experience in the sustainable development held in University Jehad of Mashad research center.

'Visiting Iran each year by many tourists indicates that foreign tourists in the country have security,' said the professor and head of the French University department of sustainable tourism.

Referring to the good tourism infrastructure in the Islamic Republic, Creuser also said that when compared with a country like the Philippines, Iran tends to be better in this regard.

'Iran's stance is quite favorable considering its tourism structure and readiness to attract and host foreign tourists and the country can attract more foreign visitors by promoting its tourist attractions,' he said.
