Explore rewards agents with new adventure discounts

Explore has increased its travel agent discount, now offering agents 50% off across its Discovery, Walking, Cycling and Family programmes.

It means that adventurous agents keen to explore Lebanon?s archaeological wonders at Baalbek, such as on Explore?s new eight-day ?Highlights of Lebanon? trip, or those who want to take on a bucket list challenge, such as hiking the Inca trail or Kilimanjaro, can now do so at a reduced rate. Agents? companions are now also eligible for a 30% discount.

The new policy aims to encourage agents to experience a trip with the operator first hand and learn why they can recommend the operator to their clients in the future.

Ben Ittensohn, the operator?s head of global sales, said: ?Giving the opportunity to experience our product is key to supporting agents as it helps to instil further confidence in selling our product.We have designed a policy that is both generous and non-restrictive. We know time out of the office is extremely valuable, so we have removed all of the traditional red tape and have made the process more streamlined and easy to deal with. Over the coming months travel agents can expect to see a number of new exciting initiatives for our agency partners to help them grow their share of this exciting segment.?

The discount applies to land-only prices and excludes Polar, Galapagos and Beyond trips and is not valid on Christmas and New Year departures.

Agents interested in booking a trip should contact sales@explore.co.uk and include full booking and travel agency details.
