As we approach the second Arival conference, with more than 1000 attendees expected, we want to share a little bit of our story. There was no place, no forum, where practitioners of travel’s third-largest sector could assemble, network and learn about the incredible things happening in the Best Part of Travel. Until now.

1. Why We Did This
(The Best Part
of Travel)

2. The industry mostly talks about
transportation and accommodation

3. But what do travelers
care about most?

they get there:
Tours, Activities & Attractions.
And it’s big: It’s travel’s
third-largest sector.
Note: *Other includes car rental and cruise and package tour operators in select markets.

11. Tours, Activities & Attractions:
It’s the next big wave in growth and
digitization in the travel industry.
This means big changes for tour and
activity operators.

12. But there’s no conference, no media, no
resource specifically for operators in this
sector. There’s nothing to help the many
small businesses and entrepreneurs stay
on top of these changes.
Until now.
