The World Travel Awards were founded in 1993. They are considered to be the most prestigious awards in the field of tourism. They are awarded annually in 80+ categories.
The World Travel Awards host an annual Grand Tour — a series of regional galas on every continent. The previous year’s winners are automatically nominated, along with independent applications and those from destinations nominated by the organisers’ expert council. The winners of the regional stages and the nominees put forward by the expert council then compete in the grand final.
