CONNECT COMMUNITY TOURISM
Connecting enterprises. Opening markets. Creating income.
Planeterra connects Community Tourism Enterprises with travel companies, turning local knowledge and industry expertise into experiences that work for everyone.
Great Community Tourism experiences need more than visitors, they need access to the tourism industry. Many Community Tourism Enterprises have the knowledge and experience to welcome travellers but lack the industry connections to reach them. Travel companies want meaningful experiences but don’t always know where to find the right community partners.
Planeterra connects the two: helping Community Tourism Enterprises reach the market and helping travel companies build long-term relationships with community partners.
