Workshop 1: Designing Dream Experiences

Venue : Venetian Sicily Rooms (Level 1)

Experiential travel was once the domain of the youthful back-packers or those who sought niche areas of activity. Today, at the high-and-mid-ends of the travel and tourism market, this concept has gained much ground and is fast becoming a mainstream activity. With travellers becoming more enlightened and environmentally conscious, the experiential travel market is sought after by most destinations and tourism operators for its ability to generate higher yields with lesser impact on the resource base. The activity also generates direct avenues of incomes for communities who become strong stakeholders in such operations.   

At its best, travel and tourism must provide the traveller dream-like memories and leave lasting impressions of the places they visit. It must ensure sustainability of the planet's resources and solid benefits to all stakeholders.
