With more people travelling, the need to cater to niche groups and needs has also expanded. These days some people like to travel and learn something while at it.
ALONG with ecotourism and voluntourism, a growing trend in travel is edutourism, where visitors spend part of their trip engaged in a class to learn a new skill or hobby that is indicative of the place and or culture. Language study has long been a popular choice since picking up a language can be much easier when embedded in a foreign spot, but more travellers are expanding their learning experiences to include new sports, new skills, and new trades to take back home.
