Hispanic Travel Market
The Hispanic Market is an important and growing segment of the tourism industry that represents a great opportunity for growth both within and outside of the United States. The travel habits of Hispanics differ from those of non-Hispanics and indicate greater opportunities for tourism growth.
NTA’s Hispanic Market Initiative provides the education and tools necessary for its members to learn about this market and take advantage of the growth opportunities inherent within it.
