Partir Ici 

Partir ici is an online guide to outings and activities (+ accommodation) for all residents and visitors to the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.

The scheme is part of the region’s commitment to “caring tourism”, which means :

  • Promoting local economies and creating links between the region’s residents and visitors
  • Contributing to the development of environmentally-friendly tourism

    • Why reference your offer?

      As a partner, this platform will enable you to promote your ‘caring’ offers and stand out from the crowd of customers who are sensitive to this commitment.

      In addition, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Tourisme is launching an action and communication plan with substantial budgets:

      • Offline advertising (e.g. city buses)
      • Visibility partnerships (e.g. Crédit Agricole, the Region, Le Bon Coin)
      • Traffic campaigns (e.g. Facebook)
      • Development of a natural referencing strategy on search engines such as Google
      • Press relations with priority targeting of online media
      • Sharing podcasts on the Partir-Ici.fr website

      To find out more, see the detailed action plan.

    • What are the steps involved in being visible on Partir Ici?

      To get your offer featured on Partir Ici, there are 5 steps to follow:

      1. Be a partner of the Maison du tourisme (not compulsory but recommended)
      2. Send us a request by email (megane.socier@vacances-livradois-forez.fr)
      3. After review, if we feel your offer meets the selection criteria (in line with caring tourism), a link to a Parti Ici self-diagnosis questionnaire will be sent to you via the e-mail address given on your APIDAE form.
      4. You complete the self-diagnostic questionnaire (15 min) and you obtain a sufficient score for your offer to be listed on the platform.
      5. Your offer is accepted and will then appear on Partir-Ici.fr in the corresponding category (Sport & Nature, Tasting & local produce, Culture & discovery, Relaxation & well-being, Restaurants & bistros, Parties & meetings) or accommodation.

      NB: Offers will only be displayed after 3 months (e.g. if you visit the site on 20/05, all offers between 20/05 and 20/08 will be displayed, no offers after this date).

    • What is the Partir Ici self-diagnosis?

      This is a self-assessment questionnaire (estimated time: 15 minutes).
      It consists of 3 parts (each containing around 15 questions):

      • Environmental protection.
      • Economic impact.
      • Social benefits.

      You will be given a mark for each part, and a final score will tell you whether your offer meets the platform’s criteria.

      Don’t forget the 4th step, which allows you to enter the details of your offer: opening hours, timetable (to be checked), profile and/or best practice (to be written).
      Even if you don’t have the exact answer to all the questions, it’s still advisable to answer them as best you can. To help you, consult the Frequently Asked Questions. If you don’t score enough points, you can try to complete the questionnaire again, after taking a few steps to finally meet the criteria.
