Cultural Appeal: How to Dazzle Travelers with Heritage ValuesMihaela Lica Butler
Delivering online marketing strategy to attract more guests. „All tourism is a cultural experience.“ (D MacCannell, 1976, The tourist: A new theory of the leisure class)
Because the lines between cultural tourism and tourism for the sake of leisure blurred, the mere act of traveling to a different destination outside our homes can be defined as a cultural experience. With every trip, we learn something new, we meet people we do not know, we are exposed to unalike lifestyles, and we learn about local cultures while often taking in a speckle of tradition even when we didn’t plan for a cultural journey. But it’s time to “unblur” the lines and to get back to the basics.
The "experience" is what travelers are expecting today and cultural values play an important role in what they take in when they visit a place. See how Airbnb impacts the experience and how to overcome the digital struggle to remain relevant and competitive.
We are delighted to share with you the exciting news about our latest initiative at Storydoers. We have recently run a comprehensive training combo aimed at promoting the digitisation of SMEs in the rural tourism sector as part of the Erasmus+ Programme.
The training combo comprises a series of engaging and informative sessions designed to improve the digital skills and capabilities of entrepreneurs in the local tourism sector. Our aim is to equip these businesses with the tools and knowledge they need to thrive in the digital age.

Tourism can shape the future - impulse4travel manifestoRealizing Progress
We are the tourism industry. We decide in which direction we want to take our sector and how we do so. Everyone who works in tourism, no matter in which role, is invited to adopt the thoughts and approaches of this manifesto for themselves and to put them into practice in their thought and actions.
Many aspects of the manifesto have already been discussed in various ways within the industry, but until now the bigger picture and the interdependencies have been missing from the discourse. This manifesto is intended as a shared,
all-encompassing vision for the industry. The intention to work towards common goals expressed here gives us the strength to follow this path with purpose, on both a small and a large scale. The task now is to introduce measures, generate some initial successes, develop some positive momentum and instil renewed confidence within our sector.

Antarctica- Icy wilderness of extremes and wondertahreemzahra82
In this presentation, we delve into the captivating realm of Antarctica, Earth's southernmost continent. This icy wilderness stands as a testament to extremes, with record-breaking cold temperatures and vast expanses of pristine ice. Antarctica's landscape is dominated by towering glaciers, colossal icebergs, and expansive ice shelves. Yet, amidst this frozen expanse, a rich tapestry of unique wildlife thrives, including penguins, seals, and seabirds, all finely attuned to survive in this harsh environment. Beyond its natural wonders, Antarctica also serves as a vital hub for scientific exploration, providing invaluable insights into climate change and the Earth's history

3. People are curious to explore new places and experience new cultures. Mainstream, mass tourism is
voyeuristic, reductive & exploitative. Although new age travelers are trying to break away from these
stereotypes and go off the beaten path, there are limited trusted, ethical, community focused curators
who can offer unique and wholesome experiences.
While this is a problem that existed long before the pandemic, it is now impossible to ignore. Tourism
is screaming for a fresh approach, and the tourism market in the post-pandemic world is ripe for new
technological and community-based innovations that empower travelers and locals alike.
There is, however, right now a huge gap between the market demand and supply.
The Problem
4. People with the problem above are those who are intellectually curious: innovators, lifelong learners,
and history and culture buffs.
These are the people who often travel to immerse themselves in new cultures and locations, who want
to soak up the atmosphere of a place.
They can be broadly categorized as follows
Target Market
Connected Super Users
Below 35 y/o
Interested in culture, love to
read and consume online
content, travel as much as
possible
Discerning Users
35 - 65 y/o
History and culture buffs,
innovators and early adopters,
discerning about where they
travel
Traditionals

History and culture buffs,

5. Market Size
dekko is directly seizing a market of
$254 billion in 2019
represented by tours, activities and attractions sector which is ripe for disruption owing
to the pandemic.
dekkho is indirectly tapping into the booming OTT market of
$438.5 billion by 2026
by catering a new media format.
6. Immersive Trails is building a virtual experiences environment (including an OTT
platform and app) that will utilize the skills of those in the tourism sector and create
sustainable employment by training them to develop both virtual and physical
experiences. Our Netflix of travel will revolutionize the way people plan, travel and
learn.
• It will offer enrichment and insight for travelers, and those who cannot physically
travel, by making them better informed, ethical and empathic as they discover
unique stories curated and told by local communities worldwide.
• Travellers can use the ethically curated immersive experiences on our platform to
discover unique stories from all corners of the world, and make responsible, informed
decisions when they plan to travel.
• The platform will also enable people who cannot travel, a currently untapped market,
by bringing them the world at their fingertips.
• It will create sustainable livelihoods for the locals, a responsible means to travel for
the travellers and a successful global business for Immersive Trails.
The Solution
7. • Ethical
Whether it is in how we conduct the research or represent
a community, ethical treatment of the subject matter is our
highest concern.
• Based on Research
To elevate the value of experience-based heritage and
cultural learning, we ensure all our experiences are rooted in
deep research.
• Accessible
Given that our experiences are virtual, they can be accessed
irrespective of physical boundaries.
• Inclusive
The experiences are designed for and by people from all
backgrounds.

to raise equity-based seed capital of INR 1 crore (USD
150,000) and dilute 8-12% of the company to the investors
with an exit horizon of 5 years.
• The investment will be used to
• Hire an in-house team (CTO, 2 programmers, UI/UX
expert, graphic designer & copywriter) to design the
novel platform & app.
• Invest in proper internet connections, healthcare
benefits and periodic meetings (every 3 months), as
we plan to work remotely (initially based in India).
• Market the services and products of the platform &
app to build a sustainable user base.
Investment
Required
14. Immersive Trails is a purpose driven company dedicated to making culture
and heritage accessible using technology.
15. Founders
(since 2017)
Immersive Trails was born from co-founders Chelsea and Tathagata’s experiences
travelling the world in search of unconventional stories from local communities.
This interest grew out of their academic training in anthropology and archaeology
at two of the best institutions in the world. In 2017, the husband and wife duo left
the security of conventional academia to create Immersive Trails (then known as
Heritage Walk Calcutta) with a vision of bringing these unique stories to the world,
by curating immersive, research-based, community-focused and ethical cultural
experiences.
16. Co-Founder
(since 2022)
With a background of working in advertising and marketing for socio-cultural brands
and startups, Immersive Trails was a breath of fresh air for Surbhi. Surbhi was seeking
to be with a startup where her ethics would be a good fit, rather than a hindrance.
With a nearly perfect value match that translated to on-boarding as a co-founder,
she works on identifying opportunities for growth, creating strategic partnerships
and profiting sustainably to achieve our vision in the long-term.
