Virtual TAP Dance

Welcome to TAP Dance 2021!

We are thrilled to have you joining us as we Ignite Travel! What a year it has been to be part of the travel industry! TAP  Partners have faced the same challenges as many of you and we have persevered to continue doing business in the industry we love, and we have kept TAP moving forward. As travel begins, TAP Dance will position TAP Partners and our PPTPs to hit the ground running.

Thank you, thank you, thank you; we are grateful you are participating. After our revolutionary groundbreaking Virtual TAP Dance in 2020 who would have ever thought we would be back hosting another virtual event. TAP Dance 2021, like last year, will have many noticeable absences amongst our peers, Partners, PPTPs and Guild. With some budgets being revised and programing suspended, your belief in us matters. Your participation continues to be critical in sustaining TAP into the future. TAP Dance’s history is that it has been revolutionary in its conference approach, and this year is no exception.

Last year we were the first in the industry to deliver a virtual conference and this year, we established another first by expanding our conference to include product development with our Ignite Travel Collection. An entire day will be spent in our pods, being mentored by TAP Partners to create sellable itineraries and tours to be presented to resellers of travel on our final day of the conference. The goal…. to create sales and more importantly ROI for both PPTPs and Partners. We are excited to offer this new opportunity to our PPTPs to gain even more exposure for your wonderful destinations and attractions.

We look forward to connecting with you throughout the conference. Lisa, Adena and our headquarters team have created a reinvented TAP Dance conference where we will work hard, but also have time for fun and to unwind and catch up. Social distancing has been challenging for us all and that makes our evening “TAPPY Hour” networking all the more important to “see” each other. Plus, you don’t want to miss the opportunity for a scrumptious lobster giveaway from my neck of the woods in Atlantic Canada!

In my over 30 years with my company, Atlantic Tours; no time in my history has our industry experienced such an adjustment. Now more than ever, we need conversation regarding the future and what a new normal will look like for our group touring programs. In collaboration together, I know that we can come up with exciting new programs to those off the beaten track and less visited areas in all our destinations. As travel starts to open up in the coming weeks and months, and when we finally get that template of how travel will look, we will be ready with new fresh programs.

We appreciate your patience as we adjust to this new format. Please let me know your thoughts as we progress through the week and I so look forward to when we can be together in person.

Cheers and I appreciate your partnership!

TAP President
Director of Fun & President, Atlantic Tours & Travel
