Across four key UK cities, we bring together our leading African and Latin American DMCs, lodges and boutique hotels with high-value UK tour operators for focused product discovery, meaningful conversations and long-term partnership building.

  • Pre-qualified exhibitors aligned to UK market needs

  • Efficient, pre-matched meetings 

  • Direct access to decision makers from African and Latin American DMCs, lodges and hotels

  • Market-led conversations focused on product development, pricing and operational realities

  • Insight-led context, including updates on UK outbound travel sentiment, emerging destination trends, evolving traveller expectations and product opportunities for 2026

  • Relationship-first networking that supports long-term partnerships, not transactional selling

  • Alongside structured meetings, the relaxed format allows space for honest conversations, deeper insight sharing and the kind of connections that shape lasting partnerships
