For the months of April and May, the Bariloche authorities developed an ingenious tool that aims to continue the good streak of the extra long Easter weekend where they had an occupancy greater than 80%. This is Baricheck, a digital card that will offer discounts to residents and visitors to the city during these two months.
Users will be able to access a series of considerable discounts that invite them to plan ideal getaways for this fall. The discounts are 20% in gastronomy; 30% on accommodations; 20% in hostels and campsites and 25% in other tourist services.
“The idea is to repeat the success of Holy Week, in which Bariloche had more than 80 percent occupancy, partly thanks to the success of the National Chocolate Festival,” said Sergio Herrero, Secretary of Tourism of the Patagonian jewel. The city is now betting on Baricheck as a unique opportunity for those who wanted a getaway to the city of snow.
The positive balance left by the popular chocolate celebration filled the sector with optimism, which is now encouraged to dream of maintaining the good tourist rhythm throughout the year. “We trust that Baricheck will be a great relief to the pocket, especially for those who come with their families and with a limited budget but eager to enjoy everything the city has to offer,” said Herrero.
In that sense, the numbers left by Holy Week were surprising. According to data from the National Secretariat of Tourism, Environment and Sports, San Carlos de Bariloche – with the boost of the Chocolate Festival – was among the most visited destinations along with Mar del Plata – which experienced the best long weekend in recent years. thirty years -, Tandil, Jujuy, Entre Ríos, Misiones, Mendoza, San Luis and Corrientes.
