70% of Package and Affinity Group Travelers Find a Home With Cultural
Travels
According to a new
study by the National Tour Association, package travel in 2000 accounted
for more than $140 billion in direct travel-related sales. Package
travel is defined as two or more related components purchased from a
travel company.
Independent packages accounted for 57% of the total market, while group
travel was 43%. Of those joining groups, 30% had prior affiliations,
such as with clubs, families or church groups.
So what does this mean for Cultured Travelers? It means that the
CulturalTravels.net web service is a primary source of information for
the 70% of travelers who are looking for either independent packages or
specialized small group tours.
With more than 1,000 tour hosts in our database who can customize their
packages for individual travelers, it would be nearly impossible not
to find a company on our web site that can create the trip of your
dreams. |
