Familiarisation Visits

Experience Wiltshire for yourself and join us on one of our familiarisation visits to see a variety of tourism products suitable for travel trade.

VisitWiltshire has an ongoing programme of educational familiarisation visits, designed to improve your product knowledge and give you a taste of what Wiltshire has to offer. Open to coach operators, tour operators, travel agents, group travel organisers and the trade press, they usually take place in spring and autumn and will introduce you to a variety of tourism products suitable for the travel trade, both groups and FIT.
