Does a tourist company need a website?

One of the frequently asked questions - does a tourist company need a website?

Indeed, you can have pages on Facebook or Instagram, be pointed on electronic maps, and it seems like website is not needed. Similarly, if we consider hotels, you can place information on Booking.com or Tripadvisor and also do not have your website.

It is appropriate for some businesses but tourism has its own features.

1. The average bill in the tourism sector is quite high, so potential customers are more responsible in choosing a product and absence of website of a hotel or travel agency might cause concern.
2. According to studies, before making a purchase a tourist visits an average of 37 sites. What happens if among these sites no one is yours – it Is obviously.

It is just our thoughts, of course, everyone has its own opinion.

Does a tourist need VR and AR?

In recent years, Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies are widely used in tourism together with introducing innovations in all social scene. In our opinion, we need to understand where it is necessary and where it would prevent developing of real smart tourism as VR and AR do not turn a city or museum into smart in a snap. Moreover, VR and AR deflect tourist’s attention from receiving real cultural patterns of destination or museum. He can use VR or AR any time at home, but during a travel he wants to see true authentic objects. In addition, these technologies have notable disadvantages. • Need for huge Internet traffic.
