The Toutourisme, a dog friendly approach
A dog friendly concept has been adapted by several Tourist offices in the Vendée. This original idea, called “Toutourisme” aims to provide a personalised welcome for visitors with pets. The Toutourisme Club enables these tourist Offices to inform pet owners: on dog friendly attractions, accommodation, where dogs are welcome as well as dog friendly beaches... ideal for a dog’s bucket list!
The Tourist Offices of La Tranche sur mer, Destination Les Sables d'Olonne and Sud Vendée Littoral, Destination Vendée Grand Littoral have joined the “Club du TouTourisme” (a dog friendly concept). Their aim is to provide a warm personalised welcome as well as information adapted for visitors with pets, within a tourist destination.
A welcome pack is offered to each visitor which includes:
- A Practical guide “Toutourisme” which lists the Touristic Establishments where dogs are welcome, (useful addresses, restaurants, veterinarians.)
- Dog poop bags (to encourage owners to respect dog fouling rules.)
- Doggie Treats.
- A 30 Million Friends magazine (a french magazine.)
- And of course, the “Tou tou” bar which is available all year round.
