The 2023 Community Tourism Summit, in Cusco, Peru, was hugely successful for G Adventures, as agents, suppliers, media and travellers gathered from around the globe to experience firsthand what a monumental impact community tourism can have on a destination, on local people, and on travellers themselves.
This year’s event, taking place Sept. 24 – 29, will once again incorporate the Change Makers agent event, which brings agents of change from around the world together, with the trip culminating in an all-day World Community Tourism celebration on World Tourism Day, Sept. 27.
Change Makers is live now and runs until May 31. The campaign incentivizes agents to focus on changing people’s lives through travel by booking G Adventures trips. Agents who successfully earn a place at Change Makers will see firsthand how their work directly impacts local communities in the places they send their travellers to, through the lens of a six-day trip to India.
