Among the authorities in attendance were the Vice Counsellor of Tourism of the Canarian Government, Cristóbal de la Rosa, the Counsellor of Tourism of Tenerife’s Island Council, Alberto Bernabé, and the mayor of Adeje, José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga. Many representatives of the tourism sector of the Canary Islands as well as a large group of journalists from major national and international media also attended the event.

Blanca Zayas, Director of Communication of TripAdvisor in Spain, presented the award to the Vice President of the Park, Christoph Kiessling, who said with emotion that it is a “an honor to Siam Park to receive the Travellers’ Choice Award of TripAdvisor for the third consecutive year – a recognition that is the result of teamwork”.

Meanwhile, Wolfgang Kiessling also expressed his joy having received this distinction, which consolidates park’s leadership: Although I promised myself not to mention the word ‘pride’, the truth is that I feel very proud. This recognition is part of everyone and we are moving toward a truly strong and prestigious company thanks to the island of Tenerife”. In his speech, he also stressed that 98% of jobs are occupied by Canarians.

The Vice Counsellour of Tourism of the Canary Government stressed the importance to win this meaningful recognition from TripAdvisor for the third time in a row. He also highlighted the huge impact Siam Park has for tourism in Tenerife and the Canary Islands overall.

As a representative of the Council of Tenerife, Alberto Bernabé stressed that Siam Park is a true enjoyment for its visitors. That is the reason why tourists come back and others are curious to come to Tenerife. This experience ensures the visitors return home fully satisfied. “This sense of satisfaction is key of our common labour.” In addition, he confirms the excellence has become the trademark of the whole Loro Parque family. The mayor of Adeje congratulated, in his speech, the entire team of Siam Park and highlighted the huge effort and involvement of the Kiessling family in the community, by generating jobs in Adeje and its surrounding areas. About 200 people who attended the event enjoyed a lively cocktail where they could converse about the new gran achievement at Siam Park.
