Hagåtña, Guam – The Leon Guerrero-Tenorio Administration is pleased to share that Guam is featured in the latest travel issue of TIME magazine titled “The World’s Greatest Places.” Governor Lou Leon Guerrero participated in interviews, in addition to Guam Visitors Bureau President and CEO Carl Gutierrez and local tourism and hospitality industry professionals.

“We’ve always known our island to be the greatest place in the world, but now the world is surely beginning to catch on,” said Governor Leon Guerrero. “For decades, our growing tourism industry has encouraged the global community to see for themselves what makes our island a truly special place to live, work and visit. From our beautiful waters and landscapes to the warmth of our people and the inclusiveness of the CHamoru heritage, Guam is fast becoming a choice destination. We are ready to show the world what we have and how far we’ve come.”
