The goal of this webinar is to arm you with the information and tactics needed to exceed visitor expectations of your culinary tourism offerings. This includes developing the ability to:

• Differentiate between culinary tourism and other forms of tourism, while identifying examples of culinary experiences relevant to your region;
• Describe the breadth and diversity of businesses involved in culinary tourism through deconstructing the culinary tourism value chain; and
• Explain to tourism operators and stakeholders why culinary tourism is a vital component in servicing the needs of travellers.

You’ll also be able to:

• Apply your understanding of visitor expectations and relevant tourism trends to deliver value through food & drink;
• Recognize that celebrating place through local cultures and cuisines improves the visitor experience;
• Localize your culinary tourism experience by drawing on successful examples from around the world; and
• Use culinary tourism storytelling to deliver intangible value to visitors.
