## **How to make appealing TikTok travel videos **

 

1. **Showcase interesting and little known destinations that people have not seen before.** This can include impressive landscapes, tourist attractions, restaurants, hotels or any other place that you’ve visited and think is worth sharing.
2. **Use music and sound effects:** TikTok is a multimedia content platform so make the most of the opportunity to add music and effects to your videos to make them more appealing. Sound effects can also help you highlight the most exciting parts of your adventures.
3. **Be creative:** use different angles, perspectives and shooting techniques to create content that captures users’ attention. This can include aerial shots, slow motion and transition videos to connect different places and scenes. 
4. **Add value:** beyond showcasing interesting destinations, you can add value to your videos by including **useful and practical information** about the places you are visiting. For instance, you can give restaurant recommendations, travel advice or provide information about the region’s history and culture.
5. **Be authentic:** this last point is crucial if you are to attract your audience’s attention. Remember that your content must reflect your personality and lifestyle. Show your true self to connect with your audience and build a loyal following.

## Tourist companies on TikTok

Brands play a fundamental role in all of these trends, as they invite users to enrich the content. The videos provide a natural way to interact with the audience, and are also able to reach new audiences. For instance, **Turismo y Planificación Costa del Sol** is active on the site, sharing appealing content for people interested in travelling to the Costa del Sol. Check out this video of [the best sunsets in the destination](https://www.tiktok.com/@vivecostadelsol/video/7198161621456407813) or [this one](https://www.tiktok.com/@vivecostadelsol/video/7177682560263163141) where users are invited to discover the local cuisine. 

There is no doubt about it: TikTok users are discovering new ways of travelling thanks to the platform. When they connect, they can interact with other people and build communities based on unique and creative content. All users are able to share their travel advice, discoveries or recommendations with the community, offering an honest and personal point of view. So what about you?
