Encouraging Post-Tsumani Samoa Tourism

The Samoan Web Ambassadors Programme is run by a Samoan Charitable Trust established to teach marketing and to encourage in-bound Samoan tourism, post-Tsunami.

Thumbs Up!We encourage and support bloggers, journalists, videographers, film-makers, travel writers, Internet marketers, business people, investors and other people of influence to come to Samoa and experience this South Pacific paradise. Our expectation is that they use their professional skills and contacts to educate, inform and generate business on the Internet for Samoa.

A core function of SWAP activities is to develop, build and maintain an inbound tourism portal website called The Samoa Story.

Our first Ambassadors arrived in Samoa April 2010 and many since have enjoyed their fun in the sun with us!
