The Local Experts Programme has been developed to support those involved in the tourism sector and the local community to share useful information with visitors which, in turn, will encourage them to stay for longer and do more, benefitting the local economy.
Linda Campbell, visitor engagement manager with Fáilte Ireland said the programme is designed to empower those working in the tourism industry to amplify the visitor experience by sharing information, ideas and tips.
“Local knowledge of things to see and do and places to explore plays a key role in providing visitors with a rich and unique experience,” he said.
“The programme is designed for all those working in the local tourism community, including those working in tourism accommodation, restaurants, pubs, taxis, public transport or volunteers on tourism initiatives,” Ms Campbell added.
