Experiential tourism is a form of travel in which the visitor goes beyond the usual mass tourism draws and participates in activities that enable them to experience a place by directly connecting to its history, people and culture. Visitors can learn new skills, participate in local projects, or work with local masters to create their own masterpiece. By engaging with the locals, visitors experience the authentic hands-on dimensions of a place and its people through storytelling, delicious food and sights that turn to memories that last a lifetime.

"I had no idea that there are so many rare birds and unusual plants in the Carden Alvar. I learned a huge amount about the Alvar bird species and their songs and received instruction that has elevated my photography to a whole new level. Arni is a very knowledgable instructor about the area and about wildlife photography - he made the experience memorable for me. I now look for and listen for birds in a whole new way.
