El Brogit and SiuranaTours are taking part in the “L’Estalviatge” getaway campaign

It’s time to get out of the house and rediscover Catalonia with your family, your partner or with friends! The “L’Estalviatge” campaign offers you a discount of up to €150 for your next trip in Catalonia. Keep reading to find out what it is and how you can enjoy these discounts.

The Catalan Tourist Board (Agència Catalana de Turisme) has launched the “L’Estalviatge” campaign that offers discounts with the aim of stimulating local tourism and encouraging people to visit places in the low season. If you’re interested, take a look at the great offers: 50% off the bill up to €150 per contract.

Travel agencies play a key role in this campaign as, to enjoy these discounts, you’ll have to book your getaway through a registered travel agency. So…and as you know, Priorat Enoturisme has two affiliated travel agencies, both of which have joined!

 

How can you benefit from these discounts?

  • Sign up. Sign up online via this platform: estalviatge.cat. You must be over 18 years of age and resident in Catalonia. Remember that it’s only valid for one person and can’t be combined with others. Once you’ve signed up, you’ll receive a promotional code; you’ll then have five calendar days to book before the voucher expires.

 

  • Choose a travel agency. Choose what you want to do in Catalonia by type of experience, by tourism brand or area. Next, choose a travel agency that’s part of the campaign so you can redeem your discount.

 

  • Book your getaway. Then, book a package in Catalonia with a minimum of two services to be enjoyed between 1 March and 29 April 2022 (except over Easter: 9 to 18 April).

 

  • Redeem your discount. Hand in your physical voucher at the agency or download it to your smartphone. To apply the discount, which can’t be combined with other vouchers, you’ll need to show your ID.
Priorat Enoturisme joins the Corner Agreement 2022 to promote this province

Priorat Enoturisme joins the Corner Agreement 2022 to promote this province

February has come to an end, and we are once again promoting the Corner Agreement 2022, an initiative of Tarragona’s Tourism Board, which Priorat Enoturisme has now joined. The aim of this agreement, now enjoying its 18th edition, is to implement a number of initiatives to promote this area beyond our shores.

The goal of the agreement is to enhance Costa Daurada’s brand image by affording it greater visibility at domestic and international trade fairs and events, such as Navartur in Pamplona, Fitur in Madrid and the World Travel Market in London, among others.
Similarly, it also plans to focus on advertising and promotional activities, highlighting the area with the goal of attracting more tourism. The French market is a particular focus; a marketing strategy to publicise a range of tourist experiences will be introduced, leading to a better positioning of the Costa Daurada.

A total of 27 town councils, as well as public and private entities linked to the tourism sector have joined. In addition to Priorat Enoturisme, the following municipalities have also signed up to the agreement: Altafulla, Calafell, Cambrils, Cunit, Mont-roig del Camp, Reus, Salou, Tarragona, Torredembarra, Vandellòs i Hospitalet de l’Infant, El Vendrell and Vila-seca.

It also has the participation of the Regional Councils of Baix Camp, Conca de Barberà-La Ruta del Cister and Priorat; the Business Federation of Hospitality and Tourism of the Province of Tarragona, the Nàutic Parc Costa Daurada i Terres de l’Ebre-Estació Nàutica, Aquopolis Costa Daurada and PortAventura.

With regard to associations, the following have also joined: the Hotel Association of the Costa Daurada and Terres de l’Ebre, the Hospitality Association of the Province of Tarragona, the Hotel Association of the Province of Tarragona, the Camp Site Association of the Costa Daurada and Terres de l’Ebre, the Tourist Apartment Association of the Costa Daurada and the Costa Daurada Golf Destination and Pitch & Putt Association.

Meritxell Roigé, president of Tarragona’s Tourism Board, looks forward to a “good season” in a year that is gradually returning to normality. In addition, Roigé has suggested that, hand in hand with the private tourism sector, we should take some time to reflect and adapt to these new times, and to the changes brought on by the pandemic to update today’s marketing conditions.
