AdventureELEVATE
VUELVE A RESPIRAR EN LA TIERRA QUE LA LUZ INSPIRA
AdventureELEVATE Latin America 2024 – Ecuador, the first event of its kind, took place in the city of Quito and in five other adventure destinations where Pre-Adventures occurred. From May 6-8, 255 delegates from 25 countries gathered to discuss sustainability, tourism in local communities, safety, associativity, the development of private companies around nature, and the applications of AI in the industry. This regional event is the premier platform for the adventure sector in Latin America to meet, form new trade connections, network, learn about current trends, and foster new commitments among decision-makers for the sustainable development of the region.
Three significant annual meetings yielded positive results: the Latin American Tourism Boards workshop, the ATTA Ambassador meeting, and the Latin American Tourism Associations annual gathering.
Additionally, at the end of the event, it was announced that Bonito, in Mato Grosso do Sul, will host AdventureELEVATE Latin America 2025. Get ready for Brazil!
BREATHE AGAIN IN THE LAND THAT LIGHT INSPIRES.
Ecuador, a jewel anchored in the world, opens the doors to a place that stands as a beacon of adventure and diversity. The responsible development of its destinations is not only its legacy but its duty to future generations, which is why it strives to conserve biodiversity, offering the opportunity to enjoy the subtle projected mosaic of cultures, landscapes and experiences.
Ecuador, where light is never extinguished and experiences are never forgotten.
“It is not the strongest species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one that responds best to change.”

"Not only have I had beneficial follow-up communications with several of the people I met, but I also continue to reflect on all that I learned. I especially appreciated listening to the array of diverse voices and perspectives, the open and honest sharing particularly when grappling with challenging questions and scenarios, and the overall supportive and encouraging environment."
– Ann Becker, Travel with Ann Experiential
“The ATTA is unlike any other. Our experience is a community where we can make connections, ask questions and get answers. It’s a community where people are able to grow their own personal learning and be good stewards of responsible adventure tourism.”
– Matt Aubin, Global Rescue
“In the same way that adventure means something different to everyone, AdventureElevate is no cookie-cutter style event – it’s implemented in a way that keeps you coming back for more. I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the ATTA community!”
