While wine is clearly the draw for why people visit a specific wine region, studies have found “factors appear to influence wine tourists travel to a particular region, including the experience at the winery and general tourism opportunities in the area.”
In other words, wine tourists seek a broad range of experiences, not just a simple wine tasting.
At Carpe Travel we share the back story of wine, its region, the people making it standout, and of course where to sip, stay and what to do beyond the vines. Carpe Travel is dedicated to showcasing wine regions within the United States, as well as other wine regions around the world. (With every 50 states in the US producing wine, combining a vacation with a visit to wine country has never been easier!)
Brand Ambassador
Carpe Travel can customize a Brand Ambassador Program for your organization. Brands need to be related to wine and/or travel to be as we look for natural fits for our site and readers. Let’s discuss your specific needs…
Exclusive Destination Coverage
Elaine Schoch will visit the region for at least three days and two nights, provide live social media coverage, a wine guide about the region including at least three posts – where to sip, where to stay and things to do. This will be followed with additional social media promotion tied to the guide and posted articles.
Product Promotion
Carpe Travel reviews products related to family travel and wine travel. We will only cover products we love. If we do not love your product, we will notify you and/or send the item back. Following is the coverage and associated fees.
Sponsored Posts
Articles supplied or written by Carpe Travel must be related to travel within or near a wine region, topics need to fall into where to sip, stay or things to do beyond the vines. Articles supplied MUST be original content written specifically for Carpe Travel and will be disclosed, per FTC guidelines. One social media mention will be included on both Twitter and Facebook. Additional mentions are available for an added fee.
Social Media Promotions
Just want to tap our social followers, we can do that too.
Host a Giveaway/Contest
Of the products we feature in a written blog post, we can offer a giveaway and/or contest to further the promotion. This will be done using the contest widget. Each will be promoted through our social media channels, blog post and newsletter. The giveaway and/or contest will last for two weeks
