Industry Information, Advice and Support Hub

Carrbridge

The Scottish Tourism Alliance is privileged to have the strongest tourism network in Scotland, and we’re committed to strengthening relationships and promoting collaboration to offer the best possible support to the hospitality and tourism industry.

We continue to work closely with Scottish Government, VisitScotland and other public enterprises, as well as our much-valued STA Council and STA Destination Forum members, our Supporter and Patron Sponsors, and other trusted industry suppliers, to develop and share timely updates and advice relevant to the sector.
