ABA is thrilled to announce that the March/April issue of Destinations magazine is now available for your viewing. We're really excited about this edition! Last year, in our Sept/Oct issue, we featured the rise of Indigenous Tourism. The response to that issue was fantastic, and we are proud to share that this digital edition focuses on Black Heritage Tourism, another rising trend in diverse tour experiences. In this feature, we present five destinations that are telling America's essential Black history through unique tours and trails. You'll also find all our regular features, as well as a roundup of #ABAMarketplace 2025, which recently took place in Philadelphia. Enjoy! https://lnkd.in/ecywZveD

I'm having an incredible time at the Heritage & Cultural Tourism Conference in Fairbanks this week. Just one day in and already digesting some thought-provoking and engaging discussions, meaningful connections, and inspiring insights on preserving and promoting Indigenous and cultural heritage through tourism. ABA is a sponsor at this year's conference and hosted a panel discussion yesterday about the transportation aspect of such tourism opportunities. Many thanks to Joshua Howes with Premier Alaska Tours, Inc. and Tucker Remley with Alaska Railroad for a fun and insightful discussion with attendees. I've also had the pleasure of connecting with American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association (AIANTA)'s Sherry Rupert and discussing some exciting future opportunities between the American Bus Association and AIANTA. Many thanks to Camille Ferguson and her team for their tireless work in putting together this conference and its content. I look forward to continuing the conversations today and tomorrow with more attendees! Bonus: the stunning Alaskan landscape and breathtaking aurora views make this an unforgettable experience! #CulturalTourism #IndigenousTourism #OpeningRoads #ABA100 #HCTC25 https://lnkd.in/eyftz_Pn
