Paris, 1934
After a shared study trip, travel professionals founded a club in Paris that joins tourism and friendship. The idea grew into an organisation at home on every continent: Skål International, headquartered in Torremolinos, Spain.
Every branch, one table
Skål is the only organisation that brings together every branch of the travel and tourism industry: hospitality, gastronomy, travel agencies, airlines, cable cars, destinations. Under the motto “Connecting Tourism Globally”, Skålleagues meet locally in their clubs and worldwide at congresses.
