Join Us in Promoting Maryland, Virginia And Washington, DC Tourism to the Overseas Market

Overseas visitors stay longer and spend more money than visitors from the USA. Last year, overseas travelers to the Capital Region stayed eight nights and spent $1.33 billion on hotels, meals, shopping, attraction admissions and other goods and services across DC, Maryland and Virginia. The Capital Region USA (CRUSA) welcomes industry participation in its cooperative marketing activities to bring more overseas visitors to the region. By partnering with us, you can promote your travel product directly to consumers and the trade in the region’s top overseas markets. Please review our current opportunities below.
