Choose learning for the activity
Start with the activities and destinations your business actually sells. Review the relevant training and research, including its scope and publication date. This helps the team use information that fits its products rather than treating all adventure travel as one uniform market.
Keep supplier assessment specific
Request the operator’s activity details, staff qualifications, emergency procedures and booking terms where relevant to the trip. Record the evidence you receive. A professional connection is useful for finding a partner; the operating information is what lets you assess the proposed service.
