The portal is a joint product of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT), Vietnam Television, Viettel Group, Vietnam's largest mobile network operator, and Nam Viet Communication Technology Development and Investment JSC.
The project aims to develop a new channel to promote Vietnam tourism. VTV Travel will be developed alongside the launch of VTV Travel app.

With VTV Travel, visitors will have access to a big database of destinations, introductory videos on tourism promotion of localities and regions around Vietnam, while keeping users updated on necessary tourist information based on their shared current location.
Under the agreement, Viettel will help to build and complete a tourism ecosystem with numerous services, apps and functions, such as a payment system, and telecom and internet services, in order to assist foreign visitors while travelling to Vietnam and to support Vietnamese nationals travelling abroad.
Vietnam welcomed some 11.616 million foreign visitors in the first nine months of 2018, an 22.9% increase from the same period last year, the General Statistics Office (GSO) has said in a monthly report.
