Who Does What in Welsh Tourism?

The following are the main public sector organisations, which are important to the tourism industry in Wales.

VisitWales (VW)

Visit Wales is the Welsh Government’s tourism team, within the Department for Business, Enterprise Technology and Science. Visit Wales is responsible for the promotion and development of tourism in Wales. See Link.

Regional Tourism Partnerships (RTPs)

The RTPs work in partnership with the Visit Wales, local authorities, and tourism businesses and with other organisations to undertake a range of marketing, product investment and business support activities on behalf of the tourism industry. Most of these activities are delivered under contract by third parties. The RTPs have small teams of staff that will plan, manage and monitor the delivery of these contracts and who will report to a board of management, which has been elected to have an equal public/private sector membership.

Wales Tourism Alliance( WTA)

The Wales Tourism Alliance was formed when the National Assembly for Wales was established and the responsibility for tourism was devolved from Westminster to Cardiff. It has evolved over the years and is now widely recognised as the voice of the industry in Wales. See links for information.
