  • implementation of a calendar of initiatives and events to support routes during seasonal adjustment periods
  • identification of market segments and creation of customer-tailored packages;
  • implementation of a network between tour operators and the municipalities of the Volturno Valley (Municipality of Castel San Vincenzo, Municipality of Rocchetta a Volturno, Municipality of Cerro a Volturno, Municipality of Colli a Volturno and Municipality of Fornelli).
