We proudly tale about our participation in the Adventure Travel world summit 2018 held in Montecatini Terme on October 15th to 18th
Organized by the Adventure Travel Trade Association, in collaboration with Toscana Promozione Turistica, ATWS is not just a conference but a place to network with adventure-based tour operators and media from around the world. This event have been an important occasion to present the Tuscan outdoor and adventure offer as well as Tuscany as a leading adventure travel destination.
The event went sold out soon! In 2018 the theme has been: Wellspring
Tuscany’s natural wonders have always been a well of inspiration for arts and culture, and today we return to the source and engage with a place that has captured hearts for hundreds of years: rolling hills peppered with groves of trees, stone houses and vineyards; a broad coastline with aquamarine waters and ancient ports; and thoughtful agriculture that interweaves with daily life.
At the Adventure Travel World Summit delegates experienced this dolce vita of Tuscany in a fresh new way through immersive adventure activities. Through multi-day Pre-Summit Adventures and the Day of Adventure, they dived into an authentic culture and experience activities like cycling, rafting, climbing, diving, hiking, sailing, canyoning. (yes in Tuscany!!!)
The four-day conference kicked off with a “Day of Adventure,” giving attendees the opportunity to connect with other delegates.
We were 13 tour opearator – all from Tuscany to arrange this epic day. We were so excited, and even stressful to do our best as supplier. Cicloposse provided 3 DAYs of adventure – for a total of 75 delegates cycling . We were also so lucky, the weather was fantastic and all went in great way.
