Black Cultural Heritage Tours (BCHT) Certification

Through a public/private partnership with Cultural Heritage Alliance for Tourism (CHAT), a tourism business and product development company, we work to prepare their small minority supplier partners to become tourism and market ready to do business with the global travel and tourism industry.

Through the Black Cultural Heritage Tour Collection, Black cultural heritage tour products are intentionally designed to level the playing field for underrepresented small Black businesses to become positioned to actively participate and profit in the global travel and tourism industry.

The BCHT Certification is a requirement for minority suppliers partners. In addition, the certification is extended to travel advisors and other tour operators to equip them with knowledge and tools to promote and sell Black cultural heritage tour products, driving consistent tourism business and revenue to small businesses in underserved communities.
