State Tourist Department revives B & B Scheme
July 3rd, 2008 EditorThe Bed and Breakfast scheme where people who have extra room in their house, and want to rent them out to tourists at a nominal sum, is being revived in the Madurai district, India.
The scheme will provide an opportunity to tourists to get to know of the domestic culture and heritage. Also, house owners can get an additional source of revenue.
House owners should provide breakfast to tourists under the scheme. The rental should be a nominal amount fixed by the house owners themselves. The flow of tourists was expected to increase this year following the trend witnessed in the last year.
The scheme would help accommodate the increase in number of tourists coming to Tamil Nadu. In 2007 there was an increase in the number of tourists of 29.2 per cent over the previous year, an official press release said.
