NEW HAVEN - In order to entice more “motorcoach” (that's “bus” in English) tours to stop in and around the city, the Greater New Haven Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) has unleashed a glitzy new “Group Tour Planner Guide.” In addition to suggested tour itineraries, the publication offers information on arts and entertainment, outdoor fun, gaming, shopping, dining and accommodations. Only hotels, restaurants and attractions that cater specifically to the group-tour market are included in the guide. The publication has been mailed to some 700 pre-qualified group-tour operators.
According to the National Tour Association, the average traveler on a multi-day group tour spends $156.76 cents each day. That means a typical “coach,” with 44 passengers, generates almost $7,000 in daily spending.
