Lima Trade Chamber estimated the internal tourism is likely to register a 12% increase by the end of the year.
Nevertheless, receptive tourism will close 2009 with a 9% drop, even when international arrivals are increasing at the same percentage, said Alvaro Benavides, President of the Committee of Tourism (Comtur).
"We are waiting for the recovery of receptive tourism in the next months, pushed by hotel investments, that hadn't stopped, same as the traffic of passengers at international level," added Benavides.
He also asked for some corrective measures to be taken aiming to avoid the growth rate, both internal and receptive tourism, to drop due to some factors like the predicted "El Niño" for 2010.
