VisitScotland is playing a leading role in the development of Scotland as a sustainable tourism destination, working in collaboration with the Scottish tourism and events industry, key public and private partners, and local communities to create responsible tourism practices. VisitScotland’s approach to developing meaningful tourism focuses on building destinations and visitor experiences that enable deeper connections, allowing tourism to flourish now and in the future.
In early 2024, we partnered with Tourism Cares to become the first European destination to feature on its Meaningful Travel Map – a B2B resource where the travel trade can easily filter and find tourism experiences that have positive impact on people and places, to add to their itineraries and tours.
