\nHow does it work?<\/h3>\n
\nAt the end of the application period, APT choose the participants on the basis of marketing objectives, tourism products and target markets.
\nThe selected bloggers spend a week in Emilia-Romagna, during which they are free to explore the area on their own and “like a local”; “eat, feel and live like a local”<\/strong><\/em> is indeed the project’s claim.<\/p>\n
\nAPT also recommends to each participant, in a tailor-made way<\/strong>, the places and activities in the region that best suit their niche of interest<\/strong>: from food and wine to automotive, from art cities to nature activities.<\/p>\n
