Leading Travel Agents Explore Morocco’s Responsible Tourism
Intrepid Travel has announced the biggest training session for travel agencies from the UK and Ireland. The organization will transport 60 agents to Morocco for hands-on training with a focus on responsible tourism, local culture and community engagement with help from the Moroccan National Tourist Office.
Agents Will Explore Morocco Through Curated Journeys
One of four prearranged itineraries will take participants across Morocco. During the itinerary agents will visit Marrakech, Casablanca, Agafay Desert, Ouirgane in the High Atlas Mountains and Essaouira. Agents will encounter locals and experience the impact of tourism upon local economies and villages. The aim of the tour is to help agents build a greater understanding of sustainable travel so they can confidently promote it to customers.
Summit Day Will Bring Industry Experts Together
The training experience will conclude with a summit on 6 September 2026. During the event participants will hear presentations from the Moroccan National Tourist Office along with Intrepid Travel representatives and local partners and the summit will finish with a special rooftop celebration at Intrepid Travel’s new riad in Marrakech. The property forms part of the company’s expanding Stay Intrepid accommodation collection.
Several Ways for Agents to Earn a Place
Travel agents can qualify for the Morocco trip in several ways. A certain amount of Intrepid holidays sold, providing outstanding customer service, fundraising for charity or giving something back to local communities (e.g. Volunteering). The completion and booking process for eligible activities needs to be via the Intrepid Agent Hub. The campaign ends 31st July 2026 with winners being notified throughout.
The goal is for agents to engage with communities, realize the effect of travel and advocate responsibly. The company believes in travel that fosters positive change, this event showcases that message and also marks National Travel Agents day.
Charitable Giving Included in the Program
Participants will also be encouraged to support community projects through the Intrepid Foundation. Each attendee will be invited to contribute a donation that will help fund initiatives connected to the communities they visit during the trip and this approach allows the positive impact of the event to begin even before agents arrive in Morocco.
Winners to Be Announced Throughout the Campaign
Agents who wish to participate in this incentive can submit their entries to Intrepid Travel on time as early as possible. Intrepid Travel will personally inform the winners and publish their names on the company’s Facebook page. From this project, we can see that Intrepid Travel shares the values of continuing education, responsible travel, and important travel agent relationships to the place that they sell.
