GLOVisit Myrtle Beach, Afar Media, and Mindtrip have joined forces to revolutionize the way travelers discover, plan, and personalize their vacations. This groundbreaking collaboration combines Afar’s renowned storytelling with Mindtrip’s cutting-edge AI technology to create a smarter, more intuitive trip-planning experience for visitors to one of America’s most popular coastal destinations—Myrtle Beach.
Transforming Trip Planning with AI
Through both the Visit Myrtle Beach and Afar websites, travelers can now interact with Mindtrip’s conversational AI to build personalized itineraries tailored to their interests. Users can ask specific questions—like “Which beach is best for kids?”, “How early should I book a tee time?”, or “Where’s the most romantic restaurant in Conway?”—and instantly receive custom itineraries complete with curated photos, maps, and recommendations designed around their preferences.
“With more than 18 million visitors every year, helping travelers make the most of their time in Myrtle Beach is essential,” said Stuart Butler, President of Visit Myrtle Beach. “Our partnership with Afar and Mindtrip makes it easier than ever for visitors to uncover the experiences that are perfect for them—so they can focus on creating lifelong memories at The Beach.”
A First in Destination Marketing
This collaboration marks the first time a Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) has partnered with a travel publication to offer personalized itineraries to its readers.
“Our mission at Afar has always been to inspire and empower meaningful travel,” said Greg Sullivan, Afar cofounder and CEO. “By embedding Mindtrip’s innovative AI into our Myrtle Beach itineraries—and eventually across Afar.com—we’re making the journey from inspiration to action seamless for travelers.”
