We encourage ATTA adventure media members to pitch story ideas for the travel industry. For example:

  • Trends and tips about the business side of adventure. We’re looking for expertly written how-to articles especially about social media, marketing, and business strategies.
  • A deeper look into industry-wide trends. We’re looking for big trends with several specific examples from operators and destinations, travel agents, or other members of the adventure travel community.
  • Interviews with executives, managers, and visionaries in the adventure travel, outdoor, or conservation worlds. We can suggest interview subjects.
