"So this is a long weekend holiday at Eid al-Adha, 15-18 June 2024.

This aims to ensure that security and safety as stated in the standard Cleanliness, Health, Safety and Environmental Sustainability (CHSE) can always be considered.

Selain itu, pengelola wisata juga diminta untuk menyiapkan jalur evakuasi sebagai bentuk mitigasi, sehingga pengunjung dapat menikmati wisata menyenangkan dan pada akhirnya dapat menciptakan pengalaman menarik sehingga berkunjung lagi pada waktu mendatang."Jadi, menciptakan lamunan bagi orang lain dan dia akan datang lagi karena sesungguhnya keberhasilan sebuah promosi itu adalah dia datang dan datang lagi," ujarnya pula.Sementara untuk masyarakat yang berencana berwisata menggunakan transportasi seperti bus pariwisata, untuk dapat memperhatikan keamanan bus yang dikendarai dengan memperhatikan dari sisi izin kendaraan, bukti lulus uji ramp check melalui https://spionam.dephub.go.id/ serta memastikan ketersediaan asesoris keamanan yang meliputi sabuk pengamanan.
