Shopping

Mall of America in Minneapolis

Shopping experiences for groups can be as diverse and unique as the destinations
those groups are visiting, and some venues are so unique—or so enormous—they
are a destination’s main attraction.
Today’s group travelers want time to explore on their own, and shopping venues—
malls, outlet centers, gift shops, craft villages and other retail attractions—provide
them with options and flexibility.
