#TourismFromZero initiative

Latest news:



The 2020 pandemic and previous years’ overtourism issues showed us both the benefits, the relevance, and the limits of the tourism, hospitality and leisure industries for society. We cannot foresee the future, but we can listen to challenges and start developing solutions. 

So far we have received more than 900 responses in which these questions have been discussed::

  1. How should we IMAGINE tourism now that we have an opportunity to reset the way we do business?
  2. Which CHANGES would you like to see? If any?
  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

In the name of the global tourism family, many thanks to every single one of you for the inspiring feedback. Your replies are summarized in the sections below.

IDEAS

For people who love to travel, the worst case is not to plan. Fot those every travel stops with a new travel plan, even in maybe their domestic area. So it is crucial for tourism companies not to stop comunicating with people outhere and give them hope for best summer, best experience, best day trip, best family time... Don't focus on the ones who will not come, focus on the ones who will come "with a little help of the current situation". (April, 2020)

I CAN OFFER

I work in the hotel management in a luxury castle. There we can provide our guests the maximum comfort with a 8 ha garden (and we only have 25 rooms/suits) so it is perfect for guests, who want a short break from there everyday life, who wants to relaxe, who wants to enjoy the nature.

So nowadays it is necessary to provide your guests everything they want. That they leave your hotel with a smile. (October, 2020)
