WASHINGTON, DC–(Marketwire – July 21, 2010) – Enhancements on Gozaic, the online community for those interested in cultural and heritage travel, boost visitors’ experiences on the site. Newly updated sections, Explore and Connect, help travelers find culture-rich destinations, events and tours based upon interests, and enable interaction with other travelers.
Through more than 600 topics on Gozaic, visitors can explore cultural and heritage travel. Travelers interested in art, architecture, music, food, and more, will find destinations and sites corresponding with their passions. Those with a location in mind can search specifically, from Miami and Santa Fe, N.M., to the Lower East Side Tenement Museum and Graceland. Whether seeking a metropolis or a country escape, a museum or a festival, Gozaic’s enhanced search function highlights a range of cultural heritage travel options.
Connect gives members the opportunity to showcase their knowledge, and learn about places that pique interest. Members can write reviews of their favorite cultural and heritage sites and read reviews written by other members. Circles of Interest found within Connect are places where members can communicate with others, read articles about corresponding subjects and interact with experts in the fields. Circle subjects include Family Heritage Travel, Civil War Buffs, Cycling Through History and more.
“Gozaic helps people find cultural and heritage experiences on the road, or in their hometown backyards,” says Scott Gerloff, president and CEO of Heritage Travel Inc., a for-profit subsidiary of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the parent organization of Gozaic. “These enhancements were created so visitors can learn more about their favorite places, and explore lesser-known destinations.”
On Gozaic, travelers can also book Guided Tours. From hiking in the Canadian Rockies and biking in Tuscany to architectural tours in Chicago and archaeological explorations in Colorado, Gozaic’s tours appeal to a variety of interests.
More information about Gozaic is available in the Gozaic Press Room.
