On August 10, the Meghalaya government’s tourism department held a “Caravan Tourism Awareness Workshop” in Shillong. The course concentrated on the emerging industry of “Caravan Tourism” and provided potential participants with the knowledge and skills they need to prosper in this changing environment.

The Meghalaya tourism department is dedicated to improving the travel experience for tourists in light of this trend and the changing travel scene post-pandemic, according to a news statement issued prior to the event.

The program covered a wide range of topics, including “Caravan Tourism” in general and essential certifications, manufacturing, and government backing.

It assisted in gaining knowledge of the certification requirements and legal frameworks needed to set up and run caravan tourism operations. Additionally, it made it easier to communicate with well-known caravan manufacturers and comprehend the sophisticated features and technical specifications of contemporary caravans.

Along with these topics, the session also covered the potential for starting a caravan tourism business in Meghalaya with government assistance. It described how to make the most of the initiatives and support offered by the Meghalayan government in order to improve and grow caravan tourist businesses.

Individual entrepreneurs, tour operators, travel brokers, tourism transport providers, tourism cooperative societies, tourism societies, hotels, and homestays were just a few of the groups that could attend the program. The event sought to promote collaboration and support the expansion of caravan tourism in the area by bringing together stakeholders from all facets of the tourism industry.

Meghalaya has the potential to become into a popular travel destination for both domestic and foreign tourists. A change in housing preferences has resulted from the state’s shift toward adventure, wildlife, pilgrimage, and eco-tourism, which has raised demand for alternative lodging choices including caravan tourism.

Travelers can fully experience Meghalaya’s beauty through caravan tourism without being restricted by conventional lodging. The idea is quickly gaining acceptance on a global scale and offers a distinctive and immersive travel experience.
