TOUR OPERATORS
We are excited to partner with Visit Orlando and Receptively Yours to offer a Beyond The Parks Fam Tour February 1- 2, 2024. Summit attendees may register for the Fam with their Summit registration. The Fam includes hotel accommodations for January 31 and February 1, 2024. Tours will take place on Thursday, February 1st, and finish with the SYTA Social. On Friday, February 2nd there will be a half day of tour operator education sessions prior to leaving for the Summit.
Tour operators not attending the SYTA Summit may participate in the Fam based on availability. Contact Registration@syta.org to register.
On Monday, February 5th, Summit attendees (tour operators and sponsors) may attend a tour and brunch at the Kennedy Space Center when they depart the ship. Return transportation will take attendees to the airport and Orlando.
SUMMIT SPONSORS
The proximity to Orlando allows sponsors to come in early and meet with clients and local partners, from January 31-February 2, 2024. Summit sponsors are welcome to reserve a room, visit their clients in Orlando on Thursday, and participate in the SYTA SYTA Social. Transportation for the cruise will be provided from the hotel and departs at 12:00 pm. Hotel rooms on Thursday, February 1, 2024, are included in the sponsorship fee.
