We are industry working for industry.
Tourism is made up of all sizes of businesses, from the large national organisation down to the small independently run micro business. We believe we’re all equally important and want to help give everyone the chance to shine. We raise our own funds and do not charge local businesses for the work we do.
VisitDundee was created and is operated as a social enterprise by representatives of Dundee’s tourism and hospitality industry to provide independent, industry led marketing support to our fellow businesses and organisations that operate in the Dundee area. Who knows tourism better than those who do it, day in, day out.
We are industry working for industry to promote Dundee; a fantastic short break destination where visitors have so much to discover.
