Welcome to an exciting exploration of the “Travel Local Highlights”, a specialist topic resonating with the unfolding trends in the contemporary tourism industry, spearheaded by digital innovation and bespoke software applications. It brings into focus the evolution of homegrown, local flavors in travel that play a critical role in shaping the narratives of local experiences, cultural insights and sustainable travel.
Decoding the subject matter, “Travel Local Highlights” encapsulates a multifaceted umbrella of concepts ranging from geo-targeted app solutions for interactive tourism, web platforms that inspire local hidden gems, gamified experiences of city-tours, to locally sourced travel advisories and unique staycation insights. These concepts are increasingly becoming integral parts of modern tourism, strongly backed by the growing reliance on technology for a personalized and value-driven travel experience.
Interestingly, the market is seeing a gradual shift from generic off-the-shelf software products to bespoke systems that cater specifically to individual business requisites. This shift is evident when we look at recent industrial trends. According to a 2020 Manifest survey, nearly 55% of companies indicated the use of custom software, reflecting a marked increase from the 40% in 2019. A prophecy can be observed in terms of further growth, significantly driven by the competitive advantages these bespoke solutions offer- from customization, scalability to integration capabilities.
As digital transformation sets in, startups to well-established enterprises are significantly benefiting from bespoke web/app solutions, and Travel is no exception in adapting to this trend. Statistically, in 2019 alone, 36% of travel bookings were made online (Statista). Combining this potential with local travel highlights creates a promising platform for businesses to promote not just the popular but the unique, immersive and offbeat local travel experiences.
In this rapidly globalising world, hyperlocal experiences are emerging as a counter-movement, bringing back authenticity and local charm on the travel map. It’s more than a topic; it’s an emerging niche in itself illustrating how technology is shaping new dimensions in Travel.
