Get on tour: how to design good tours [in Garden Explorer] | Åsa Krüger and Stina Weststrand, Gothenburg Botanical Garden

By IrisBG Team

The 1st challenge at the conference was presented by Åsa Krüger and Stina Weststrand, scientific curators at the Gothenburg Botanical Garden. Designing a successful tour can be a challenge but by asking their Instagram audience they already knew that the tour probably should be at the shorter end and that with the help from the four C’s a good tour can evolve;  wC - Culture - Consume - Cafe. 

The questions the community were asked to discuss

In order to create an interactive conference evolving on discussions within the IrisBG community each presentation on the programme was concluding with a set of questions to be discussed in smaller groups.

  1. Take a specific tour [you] appreciated in the past in their minds. Maybe even one [you have] followed and not necessarily one they designed. 

  2. And then take it from there:

    • A: What made it a good tour for you?
    • B: How can the tour tool in Garden Explorer be used in the best way?
