TOGOVAN

Application Sector
Smart Specialisation Strategy

Togovan combines a demand for experiential travel that is authentic and more in contact with local people, with the need to promote minor destinations and small local contexts. In “Togovan Experiences” tourists travel in vintage minivans driven by the owners themselves.


Togovan promotes the “slow travel” concept for journeys of enrichment, promoting activities based on the products and services of small handcraft industries, and encouraging a sharing economy model.

What we do:

  • WE PROMOTE minor tourist destinations and small handcraft businesses, raising their profile and helping them to establish an alternative business target and style.
  • WE DECENTRALIZE tourism from large cities and create “experiences to live” in an alternative way.
  • WE GENERATE PROFIT through a “sharing economy”. The minivan owners receive income from their service and become ambassadors for the local area.
  • WE OFFER AN ESCAPE from with a slow journey in an iconic vehicle immersed in timeless landscapes, flavours, and antique traditions.
