U.S. TRAVEL MARKET Engaging in While on Trips Of One or More Nights A Profile Report August 27, 2007 Prepared by Lang Research Inc. on behalf of: Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation, Quebec Ministry of Tourism, Travel Manitoba, Canadian Tourism Commission, Tourism Saskatchewan, Atlantic Canada Tourism Partnership, Alberta Tourism, Parks, Recreation and Culture, Department of Canadian Heritage, Tourism British Columbia, Parks Canada Agency, Government of Yukon, Government of Northwest Territories

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 1 Executive Summary Over the last two years, 3.0% (6,693,506) of adult Americans engaged in participatory historical activities while on an out-of-town, overnight trip of one or more nights. Participating in an interpretive program at a historic site or park (2.1%) was the most popular activity, followed by taking a curatorial tour (0.8%) and participating in a historical re-enactment as an actor (0.6%). 27.8% (1,862,476) of those who took part in a participatory historical activity reported that this activity was the main reason for taking at least one trip in the past two years. Relative to the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler, those who took part in participatory historical activities while on trips tend to be older (63.1% 45 years of age or older), married and without dependent children living at home. They are generally welleducated and have above-average household incomes ($80,934). They are overrepresented in Alaska and the Pacific region of the United States. This activity segment was more than twice as likely as the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler to have taken a trip to Canada (32.8% versus 14.6%) and the most likely of the 20 culture and entertainment segments to have visited Canada. The most common Canadian destinations were Ontario, British Columbia and Quebec, however, they are highly over-represented among U.S. visitors to all Canadian provinces and territories. This makes this segment a prime target market for Canadian tourism initiatives. Travelers who engaged in participatory historical activities were active in a wide range of culture and entertainment activities while on trips, and especially those offering an opportunity to learn (e.g., aboriginal cultural experiences, archaeological sites & digs, visits to historical sites, museums and art galleries). They were also very active in outdoor activities and exhibited particular interest in activities which allowed them to experience nature (e.g., wildlife viewing, hiking, climbing and paddling). They were also much more likely than average to have stayed in accommodations in wilderness settings (e.g., lodge, campsite) or at inns or resorts that offer fine cuisine. They were at least twice as likely as the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler to have taken most types of tours and cruises, and were especially likely to have taken multi-location tours and wilderness tours. They prefer vacations that are intellectually stimulating, culturally distinctive and that provide opportunities to learn. The majority of those who took part in participatory historical activities have used the Internet to plan (77.0%) and book (53.7%) travel in the past two years. They are avid consumers of travel-related media and can also be targeted effectively through city and regional magazines, radio stations that play classical music and history and natural science television programs and magazines.

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 2 Travel Activity and Motivation Survey (TAMS) The TAMS survey examines the recreational activities and travel habits of Canadians and Americans. The survey examines out-of-town, overnight travel behaviour of one or more nights over the past two years and provides detailed information on Travelers activities, travel motivators, places visited, type of accommodation used, impressions of Canada, its provinces and territories, demographics and media consumption patterns. TAMS represents a comprehensive assessment of travel behaviour and motivators and provides a rich and authoritative database by which to develop marketing strategies and travel products to attract visitors to Canada. In particular, TAMS was designed to: o Identify existing and potential tourism markets; o Measure the likelihood of these tourism markets being attracted to vacation experiences in Canada; o Create packaging opportunities for each of these markets; o Determine how to reach these markets (i.e., in terms of media strategies); and o Provide information on how to fine-tune and target existing marketing campaigns. TAMS was sponsored by the following organizations: Ontario Ministry of Tourism Quebec Ministry of Tourism Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation Travel Manitoba Canadian Tourism Commission Tourism Saskatchewan Atlantic Canada Tourism Partnership Parks Canada Agency Department of Canadian Heritage Tourism British Columbia Alberta Tourism, Parks, Recreation and Culture Government of Yukon Government of Northwest Territories Statistics Canada The survey was conducted in Canada and the United States between January 2006 and June 2006 and it includes only adults (18 years and over). The reference period for the data is 2004 and 2005. The U.S. database is used in this current report. This survey was conducted by mail with an established U.S. mail panel. 60,649 completed questionnaires were returned. The mail panel response rate for this survey was 71.3%. The data have been weighted to project the results to the United States population. This report profiles those who participated in historical activities while on a trip, and compares them with other U.S. Pleasure Travelers (i.e., took at least one pleasure trip in the last two years). This report is part of a series of 43 Activity Reports prepared using the U.S. TAMS database.

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 3 While on Trips Market Incidence Over the last two years, 3.0% (6,693,506) of adult Americans took part in a participatory historical activity while on an out-of-town, overnight trip of one or more nights. Engaging in an interpretive program at a historic site or park (2.1%) was the most popular participatory historical activity, followed by taking a curatorial tour (0.8%) and participating in a historical re-enactment as an actor (0.6%). 27.8% (1,862,476 adult Americans) of those who engaged in a participatory historical activity while on a trip reported that this activity was the main reason for taking at least one trip in the past two years. Participating in a historical re-enactment was much more likely to be the main reason for taking a trip than participating in an interpretive program at a historic site or park or taking a curatorial tour.

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 6 Demographic Profile Those who took part in a participatory historical activity while on a trip tend to be older than the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler (63.1% 45 or older). The majority are married, but they are less likely to have dependent children (18 and under) living at home. The percentage with advanced degrees is well above-average (27.4% with postgraduate degrees) and their household incomes ($80,934) are somewhat above the norm.

The Index indicates the extent to which those who engaged in participatory historical activities are over or underrepresented relative to the average Pleasure Traveler. An index of 100 means the percent participating in the activity is the same as that of the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler. Index values over 100 indicate that those participating in the activity are over-represented relative to the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler. Index values less than 100 indicate that those participating in the activity are underrepresented relative to the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler.

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 7 Travel Activity (During Last Two Years) Over the past two years, those who took part in a participatory historical activity traveled more frequently than the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler. They were much more likely than average to have visited Mexico, the Caribbean and overseas destinations, but only slightly more likely to have traveled within the United States. This activity segment was more than twice as likely as the average U.S. Pleasure Traveler to have taken a trip to Canada in the past two years (32.8% versus 14.6%). The most common destinations in Canada were Ontario (17.6%), British Columbia (13.0%) and Quebec (8.4%). However, those who took part in participatory historical activities were highly over-represented among U.S. visitors to all Canadian provinces or territories, and especially the Atlantic Region, the Canadian Prairies, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories. This makes this segment an excellent target market for Canadian tourism initiatives.

TAMS 2006: U.S. Activity Profile: Engaging in on Trips Page 8 Appeal of Selected U.S. States, Canadian Provinces and Canadian Territories The respondents were asked to rate the appeal of each of Canada s provinces and territories on a ten-point appeal scale where 10 is Very Appealing and 1 is Very Unappealing. They were also asked to rate selected U.S. states (New York State, Colorado, Florida, California, Hawaii and Arizona) to provide a frame of reference. Those who were involved in participatory historical activities while on trips gave higher ratings than other U.S. Pleasure Travelers to all Canadian destinations. British Columbia (7.1) received the highest rating, followed by Ontario (6.8), Quebec (6.6), Nova Scotia (6.6) and Prince Edward Island (6.5). This segment rated many of the Canadian provinces and territories to be as appealing as several U.S. reference states (e.g., New York State, Florida, Arizona).
