Proposal for TouristDestination and TouristTrip Submitted to Schema.org

A proposal has been submitted to the Schema.org community for the creation of two new Types — TouristDestination & TouristTrip

TouristDestination A tourist destination. In principle any Place can be a TouristDestination from a City, Region or Country to an AmusementPark or Hotel. This Type can be used on its own to describe a general TourstDestination, or be used as an additionalType to add tourist relevant properties to any other Place. A TouristDestination is defined as a Place that contains, or is colocated with, one or more TourstAttractions, often linked by a similar theme or interest to particular a touristType. The UNWTO defines Destination (main destination of a tourism trip) as the place visited that is central to the decision to take the trip.

• Subtype of: Place
• Property: touristType
• Property: includesAttraction (new property): Attraction located at destination. [Expected types: TouristAttraction, TouristDestiation]

TouristTrip A tourist trip – a created itinerary of visits to one or more places of interest (TouristAttraction/TouristDestination) often linked by a similar theme, geographic area, or interest to a particular touristType. The UNWTO defines tourism trip as the Trip taken by visitors

• Subtype of: CreativeWork
• Property: touristType
• Property: itinerary (new property): Destination(s) that make up a trip. For a trip where destination order is important, use ItemList to specify that order. [Expected types: Place, ItemList]
