Part 1: Themes and routes
![Page 4: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The context: some observations
Tourism is not about assets, but about experiences.
We are seeing the emergence of routes as a tourism phenomenon, and many of the more significant routes operate internationally.
What are the implications for how we plan tourism?
![Page 5: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A look to the future
Transnational tourism will continue to grow
It will be structured according to themes: experiences, emotions, values.
It will change the way we plan tourism. This is just the beginning.

This webinar
We need to understand:
• Why this is happening
• Where it is going
• What to do about it.
![Page 7: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Where is tourism coming from, and where is it going?
I950s to ‘70s:‘Get-away’ focused
‘80s to ‘000s:Destination focused
21st century:Experiencefocused
![Page 8: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Destination-focused tourism
Concentration of tourists aroundiconic attractions
Cities with multiple assets
Providing a strong cultural offer
Driven by powerful DMOs, backedby a structured local tourismindustry
![Page 9: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Driven by: low cost, multi-destination travel
![Page 10: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Driven by: short break tourism
![Page 11: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Driven by …
• Competition between destinations
• Protection of existing markets; emergence of new markets
• Increasing professionalisation of tourism providers
![Page 12: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The weaknesses in this modelOvercrowding around key sites
Concentration on cities; tends to neglectrural areas
Pressure on transport hubs
Low incentive for repeat visits
Uncertain or negative impact on local businesses and residents
… Therefore increasingly seen as unsustainable
![Page 13: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
An alternative: theme-based tourism
More varied and flexible, in terms of location
Could be urban, coastal, rural or other
More likely to generate repeats
Higher engagement with local businesses and communities
![Page 14: ETC & UNWTO Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes … · Handbook on Marketing Transnational Themes and Routes ... TEAM Tourism Consulting •A Global Overview of transnational](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062919/5ee1384dad6a402d666c2d32/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Some implications
• Bottom up rather than top-down. Encourages grass roots engagement
• A theme can differentiate: help the visitor see and understand
• A theme is a story, and the story can have many chapters and sub-plots.

The new role of the DMO
• Providing infrastructure
• Making the experiences accessible and understandable
• Encouraging networks
• Becoming a listening organisation
• Providing a structure
