30+ years
In adventure and inclusive tourism, from guide to global advisor
World-first model
The first solutions-based inclusive tourism advisory framework, built in Aotearoa
Built on practice
We don't just advise — we've designed, built, and operated adaptive experiences ourselves
Our approach
Inclusive tourism looks different in every destination — different environments, different regulations, different visitor profiles, different challenges. What doesn't change is the need for practical, solutions-based thinking grounded in how tourism actually operates. That's what Makingtrax brings to every international engagement — not a template, but genuine expertise applied to your context.
Operator Advisory
Adapting experiences internationally
Working directly with overseas tourism operators to adapt their experiences for inclusive delivery. This goes beyond physical access — it covers the full visitor journey, from first contact through to safe, dignified participation. Makingtrax brings the adaptive equipment knowledge, safety protocols, and operational expertise that comes from years of doing this in the field.
- Experience audit and adaptation strategy
- Adaptive equipment specification and sourcing
- Safety protocols and risk management frameworks
- Staff training and capability development
- Ongoing advisory and quality assurance
Government & DMO
Destination strategy and programme development
For governments and destination management organisations looking to build inclusive tourism capability at scale. Makingtrax works with DMOs and national tourism bodies to develop structured programmes — from policy and strategy through to operator development, endorsement frameworks, and international marketing positioning.
Aotearoa New Zealand's inclusive tourism model — built from the ground up by Makingtrax — provides a proven blueprint that can be adapted for any destination.
- Inclusive tourism strategy and policy advisory
- National or regional programme development
- Operator training and endorsement frameworks
- Destination positioning and marketing strategy
- Research partnerships and evidence-based planning
"We don't just advise — we've built it ourselves. That's what separates Makingtrax from a standard consultancy."
