The vacation customer journey map is divided into three sections:

  • The green section: We strongly recommend putting the customer lanes at the top.
  • The orange section: Below the customer lanes are the on-stage lanes consisting of all the touchpoints.
  • The blue section: At the bottom you’ll find the back-stage lanes mapping opportunities and ways of meeting the customers’ needs.

The vacation customer journey map design

The map is designed to provide a clear and balanced overview, not too overwhelming, for e.g. a decision group – but with all the deeper insights and details covered in the sub-lanes.

Note the special sub-lane insight evidence in the lane customers emotional state. Its purpose is to help you make notes about what kind of customer insights you rely on. Are they true, research based or assumptions and wishful thinking? It’s totally okay to mix, as long as you are aware of it.
