Travel Tip Sheets

ABA's new Travel Tip Sheets are a tool designed to help attractions better connect with group tour operators. Whatever the destination or attraction you offer to operators bringing group tour business -- park, hotel, museum, restaurant, memorial site, or scenic wonder -- there are always little extras that can make the difference between getting that motorcoach group tour business and not getting it. Travel Tip Sheets are simple yet effective strategies that show group tour operators your attraction understands, values and caters to motorcoach guests. We promise to keep these hints short and snappy, yet insightful and informative, providing another value-added component of your ABA membership. Please email abainfo@buses.org [1]  if there's a topic you'd like to see addressed.
