WRTA publishes Religious Travel Buyer's Guide

Never before has a guide to the $18 billion faith tourism and hospitality marketplace been produced and distributed throughout North America and around the world. This is extraordinary considering religious travel is one of the oldest and fastest growing segments of the travel industry. Thanks to the debut of the WRTA Religious Travel Buyers Guide, you now possess the definitive “go to” publication for faith-based travel opportunities and networking.

The timing of this publication could not be better. In 2008, the WRTA hosted the World Religious Travel Expo, the first-ever gathering of the faith tourism marketplace featuring hundreds of travel organizations, professionals, and planners from 30 countries. This remarkable event officially ushered in a new era of religious travel and hospitality.

What is the New Era of Religious Travel & Hospitality?
Today, faith-based travel appeals to all ages, comprises a diverse range of travel experiences, encompasses destinations both near and afar, and is driven by a desire for quality products and services.

Whether you are a member of the travel trade, group planner, religious leader, or a faith community—you can use this compendium to network with and/or learn about providers, destinations and suppliers specializing in travel products and services for religious travelers and groups.
