We’ve come a long way from Reefer Madness and the War on Drugs to the rampant legalization of recreational marijuana. It’s not only happening in the U.S. and Canada, but all around the world.
The easing of restrictions has led to the rise of a new buzz term in the bud industry—cannabis tourism—which includes everything from pop up hash bars and themed consumption lounges to farm visits and luxury hotels specializing in sativa-induced sleep.
According to Cannabis Travel Association International, cannabis tourism is a growth industry, not only in North America, but in places like Spain, Mexico, India, Uruguay, and Thailand. While cannabis tourism operates legally, it’s still a bit of an underground thing.
In many states and countries, you can grow or buy weed, but consumption is only legal on private property. In response, cannabis-friendly hotels and home rentals, as well as cannabis-featured farm tours, private catering, yoga sessions, painting classes, and gourmet meals are proliferating. After Colorado legalized recreational marijuana, a study found that nearly 50 percent of tourists visited due to the new Rocky Mountain High-friendly legislation.
