We’re not like other tourism consultancies, and that’s a good thing.

At Go To Places, we do things differently, and we’ve been doing so for over two decades. Since 2002, we’ve led the way in place management, delivering award-winning, cost-effective solutions that drive growth in local visitor economies across the UK and beyond.

What Sets Us apart?

We’re the only organisation in the UK actively delivering two Local Visitor Economy Partnerships (LVEP) - Visit Kent and Visit Herts. This gives us a unique, front-line perspective on what genuinely works for destinations and what doesn’t. We don’t just advise from the sidelines; we’re in the thick of it, turning insight into impact every day.

Turning Insight Into Action - For You

Our expertise spans the full spectrum of destination support. From data and analytics to training and facilitation, we equip places with the tools and insight they need to thrive. Our flagship product, The Big Weekend, is a proven way to reconnect communities with their local offer. We also provide strategic consultancy across DMP development, sustainability, and destination marketing, all tailored to your context and goals.

Why Partner with Go To Places?

Because we don’t just deliver projects, we build partnerships. Our clients tell us they value our collaborative, long-term approach. We take time to understand your people, your challenges, and your ambitions. Then we create solutions that work, not just on paper, but on the ground.

We’re focused on your long-term success, but we also help you achieve quick wins, keeping stakeholders engaged with visible, measurable progress from the start.

Let’s grow your destination together.

Working with Local Authorities

At Go To Places, we understand the pressures and priorities facing local authorities, from boosting local economies and supporting small businesses to enhancing civic pride and delivering value for money. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, we offer practical, proven solutions that help you unlock the full potential of your visitor economy. Whether it’s data-driven strategy, stakeholder engagement, or sustainable destination development, we work as an extension of your team to deliver measurable results that benefit your communities and meet your policy goals.
