Who we work for

AI SEO tailored to every destination and institution

DMOs, tourism boards and regional bodies

Defend the destination brand against OTAs and aggregators when a traveler asks ChatGPT "what to visit in {region}" or "best time for…". Reinforce the official narrative.

Local tourism offices

Show up when a traveler asks "what to do in {city} this weekend". Be the official source cited by AI, not just any blog.

Tourism products and routes

Camino de Santiago, wine tourism, active tourism, gastronomy, MICE… Position your product in the AI answer when the traveler defines their motivation, not their destination.

Networks and clubs of destinations

Pueblos Mágicos, Heritage Cities, Biosphere Reserves, Slow Cities… AI engines increasingly recommend collections. Position both the network brand and its members.

International destination promotion

How AI engines cite you across languages and source markets. Multilingual audit (es/en/fr/de) and GEO plan with hreflang and international topical authority.

Ministries and public bodies

Position the institutional voice when AI talks about tourism policy, sustainability, sector data or aid programs. Make AI cite your official source, not third parties.

Frequently asked questions

What is AI SEO (GEO) for tourism destinations?

AI SEO (Generative Engine Optimization, GEO) is the discipline of optimizing a destination's presence in generative AI search engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Copilot. Unlike classic SEO, it's not about appearing in a list of links but about being cited inside the answer the AI generates for the traveler.

Why is it urgent for a DMO or tourism authority?

Over 30% of inspirational tourism searches already go through an AI assistant. If your destination doesn't appear in those answers, you lose awareness to competitors that have worked on their AI SEO. And unlike classic SEO, GEO rewards arriving early: AI engines quickly consolidate their trusted sources.

Does it work for local tourism offices or tourism products?

Yes. The audit adapts to each level: country brand, regional brand, city brand, network of towns or transversal tourism product (wine, MICE, active tourism…). In all cases the goal is the same: appearing in the AI answer when the traveler asks for a recommendation.

Does it work in several languages and source markets?

Yes. We audit the main AI engines in Spanish, English, French and German by default, and can extend to other languages depending on the destination's priority source markets.

What does the free AI SEO audit include?

We analyze live how four AI engines recommend your destination, review the technical signals (llms.txt, robots, sitemap, schema.org structured data, hreflang, Open Graph, content architecture) and deliver an activation plan with quick wins and strategic recommendations.

How long does it take and is there a cost?

The audit is free and is delivered quickly. If you want to go deeper, Growtur can support you with specific AI SEO and GEO consulting for destinations and public institutions.
