The first official tourist trip took place in 1841, when Thomas Cook organised a trip to a temperance meeting in Loughborough. Since that journey almost 170 years has passed and much has changed, but the tourism industry in general, things are relatively unchanged.

We claim that the industry of today is still fairly static and has more or less moved on in the same direction. Certainly it has evolved, destinations have become more and activities have been added. But it still moves in the same direction.

Fair Travel wants to see a change in the Travel industry and we see the importance of a positive development for everyone involved.
