for tourism development, namely Rafting tourism. Seeing the government's efforts
to promote Sungai Kopu tourism to the national level, researchers are interested
in studying marketing communications carried out by the Kampar Regency
Government. The government started promotional activities with community
leaders, Tourism Awareness Groups, Stakeholders using various promotional
media to increase tourist visits in order to accelerate tourism development.

increase visitor traffic with marketing communications. Therefore the purpose of
this study was conducted to determine the marketing communications of the
Department of Tourism in the Development of Rafting Tourism in the Kopu
Kampar River.
