The programme was filmed last summer during the 25th edition of the Umag tournament, the tournament's CEO, Arlen Brozic, has reported.
Brozic added that last year around 130 foreign reporters covered the ATP tournament and that having Tennis Channel there was of exceptional importance for Istria.
"The show has given us a strong confirmation of Umag's international recognition as a tennis centre and of Istria as a tourist destination. The Umag tournament is an example of a successful event and has promoted Umag and Croatian tourism on the international scene," the director of the Umag tourist board, Sanda Bravar, said.
Tennis Channel (www.tennischannel.com) is the only 24-hour, television-based multimedia destination dedicated to tennis. It is available to more than 50 million US households and globally. The special show about Istria and the Umag tournament is the first in the second season of the Tour Guide serial.
