Santa Cruz de Tenerife will host the meeting ‘Travel Bloggers Meeting 2017 #TBMTenerife’, which will bring together about 160 bloggers from Spain, South America and Europe on the island from 26 to 28 May 2017.
The event has the sponsorship of the Cabildo, through Turismo de Tenerife, and the City of Santa Cruz, through the Development Society, plus the collaboration of Vueling and Sixt.
The insular tourism councilor, Alberto Bernabé, has highlighted the “incalculable impact” of such an event, “played by over one hundred travel bloggers who are going to be learning and writing about Tenerife.”
In this same line has been expressed the Economic Vice President of the Cabildo, Efraín Medina, who has referred to the enormous impact of these professionals “whose information and impressions are highly valued by travelers when they decide to visit a destination.”
María Victoria Rodríguez, representing the ‘Travel Bloggers Meeting’, explained that the meeting of bloggers combines the training activity itself, with the organization of workshops or lectures, with another more playful part dedicated to “living the experiences that the destination offers “.
The regional director of Sixt, Leticia Lombrana has highlighted the support of her company to this group because they are the “ideal prescribers”.
ACTIVITIES IN TENERIFE
Parallel to the work sessions of a congress event, travel writers will take advantage of their stay on the island to carry out various activities at the destination and get to know some of the main tourist attractions of Tenerife, so that they can write about them in articles and reports.
Among these activities is the possibility of tasting local gastronomy, getting to know Tenerife’s handicrafts, hiking in Anaga, visiting the Teide National Park, watching cetaceans or practicing water sports such as scuba diving or kayaking, among others.
The Travel Bloggers Meeting has been held in its eight previous editions in Seville, Barcelona, Malaga, Buenos Aires, Sierra de Gredos, Gijón, Plasencia and Andorra, and in this last edition the event reached the figure of 37.9 million Impressions on the social network Twitter.
