Tourists upset as Eo Gio tourist area increases ticket prices against regulations

Eo Gio tourist area (Ninh Thuan) is sparking controversy as the management company decided to raise the entrance fee to 40,000 VND per visit, ignoring a halt request from the Department of Finance. Many tourists have complained that the price increase is unreasonable, especially since authorities had already issued an intervention notice.

Accordingly, the Ninh Thuan Department of Finance requested the operator to suspend the ticket price adjustment due to insufficient legal basis. However, at the tourist area, the new price list is still displayed, and they are charging 40,000 VND per visit instead of the lower old price. This action has left many visitors feeling indignant, believing that the company has turned a blind eye to the state management agency's directives.

Eo Gio is one of the popular destinations in Ninh Thuan, famous for its pristine rocky seascape. The sudden ticket price increase could affect tourists' travel experience, especially during this summer peak season. The company's representative has not commented on the matter, while the Department of Finance says it will continue to inspect and take action if violations are found.
