Operational in 18 countries and used by over 100 facilities, Vision XS specialise in helping attraction operators and complete regions/destinations to provide the best experience possible for their visitors. Our knowledge and advice is based on unique, proven scientific methods and data analysis.
We work to be a true strategic partner to our clients, delivering real insights into key operational and marketing issues
In today's leisure industry, there is fierce competition for visitors. If attractions are to succeed, they must:
•Benchmark against the best.
•Look carefully at the visitor mechanisms that are in place.
•Always encourage repeat visits.
Vision XS help organisations to implement strategies that will reduce risk and maximise the return of not only their visitors, but also their attraction development investment.

"Vision were extremely thorough. The work they carried out was very useful and informative. Their analysis of our exhibits helped us to understand how these are working and in some cases how they can be improved. We will certainly be taking this knowledge and using it in the planning process for new projects."
Steve Woolford, Imperial War Museum Duxford
"We commissioned Vision XS to analyse the visitor experience and flow at Bristol Zoo Gardens. We were delighted with the insights provided by the analysis and report and are in the process of implementing changes in line with the recommendations. The analysis is also strongly influencing our thinking about the location and design of future exhibit areas."
Jo Gipps, Bristol Zoo.
"The work we did with Vision gave us an excellent insight into where we are at present, where we should be aiming our parks in the future and how they should be developed."
Angela Wright, Crealy Adventure Parks

Our methodology is driven by an appropriate use of our bespoke technical modelling software and the consultant and consultancy behaviours that surround it.

X-Mod is driven by three distinct databases;
1) General population psychological data: In the UK this database has around 0.5 million records.
2) Visitor tagging database: This is used to calibrate the model against real visitor visits in every kind of attraction.
3) Generated results: Through modelling over 100 attractions in the UK and worldwide, we are able to benchmark against similiar and different kinds of attractions .
