SMARTOURISM

Preface before establishment of BUSKER

 

Vietnam is undoubtedly one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. During my 22-year career as a construction engineer at Kumho E&C, I carried out three projects in Ho Chi Minh City between 2006 and 2014. At that time, the driving forces behind economic development were primarily manufacturing plants and the real estate sector, and naturally, people’s attention was focused on these areas. Even so, as I observed Vietnam’s long coastline stretching from north to south, its mountain ranges, and its unique cultural environment—a blend of Eastern and Western influences—I became convinced that the tourism industry was a market with limitless potential in Vietnam. 

 

Everything we touch, turns to excitement

It has been our target word for the working attitude of us. We'd executed planning of residential housing and commercial property as well as all contents planning for tourism attactions in Vietnam.
We are the pioneer to enhance the advanced tourist destination of Vietnam has been called as the oriental pearl of the world. We Are expertised and serving for your tourist destination development ideas of Vietnam.


BUSKER Establishment

At the beginning of 2016, I made a resolute decision to leave behind my distinguished career in the construction industry and return to Vietnam. As if by fate, I encountered Dalat Tourist in Dalat and was introduced to their renovation plans for all the tourist sites they operated at the time. This included projects for Datanla Waterfall, Langbiang Mountain, Thuy Ta Restaurant, Bao Dai Palace 3, and many others. As I became involved in these initiatives, I founded BUSKER Destination Design & Development in June 2016. To differentiate ourselves from typical architectural design firms, we became Vietnam’s first specialized design company dedicated to developing the country’s tourism resources. Looking back over the past eight years, we have participated in numerous projects, building a unique expertise that sets us apart from conventional architectural firms.

Vision from 2025 with TGROUP

In late 2024, another fateful encounter took place when I met TGROUP, a premium travel agency operating in Dalat. Sharing the same philosophy and vision for Vietnam’s tourism industry, we decided to join forces, and on February 25, 2025, we officially embarked on this journey together. With the number of domestic and international tourists visiting Dalat increasing year by year, the city's tourism content and infrastructure still fall short of meeting demand and expectations. TGROUP & BUSKER are confident that we can significantly contribute to the development of Dalat’s tourism sector. Our journey will begin in Dalat, but we aim to expand to other regions, fostering sustainable tourism development and creating rich, innovative tourism content. Our ultimate hope is to lay the foundation for Vietnam to become a global tourism powerhouse.
