Tourism Listical : 3 important website to use in tourism

 Hi everybody, working in tourism means a lot of research. If you want to be a good guide or a good travel agent, you need to know a lot about the most touristic countries in the world. It's impossible for a person to know so much information, this is why there are a lot of websites that will help provide the best information to your clients. These websites are used by people from around the world and provides useful and unbiased information about the well-known and secret destinations the world has to offer. So here is my 3 most important website to use in tourism : 

1. Lonely Planet 

https://www.lonelyplanet.com/

When it comes to travel guide, Lonely planet is the number one website you want to use. From France and Great-Britain to India and Kenya, Lonely provides accurate information for all destinations you can think of around the world, famous and less famous. Other than specific information, you can also find their annual top 10 destinations for the year to come (which is really useful if you're wondering which destinations you should promote). Travel blogs and vlogs are also a popular attractions on their website. So whether you're a travel in quest of knowledge or just a fellow traveler looking for his next destination, Lonely Planet is an extremely useful website the you should check out. 

2. Travel advice and advisories - Government of Canada

As a travel agent, you want to make sure that you don't put you clients in dangerous situations without knowing it. That's why you should always use the Canadian government website before booking a trip. This website will give you all the information you need regarding the political situation of the country or the criminality and even other useful tips like the requirement of entry (passport, visa, vaccine) or the important cultural aspect of the destination. Visiting this website before each booking will make sure that you or your client are well-prepared for the trip. In a pandemic like we're living right now, they also give you all the details about Covid in this destination. 

3. Bonjour Quebec - Visit Quebec

The website Bonjour Quebec is the official website of Tourism Quebec and offers the best information possible for somebody thinking about going on a trip in our province. Not only does it presents attractions from every regions, it also suggests itinerary depending on your tastes. You can book accommodations for a future trip directly on this website and it's also possible to book a tour with a guide. Bonjour Quebec created a website that is easy to use and that make the province of Quebec extremely attractive. It's a great website for people working in the tourism industry but also for people who are just looking to see their own province in these tough covid times.
