Collette has issued its 2018/19 preview edition brochure which features more than 70 popular tours for consumers looking to explore the US, Canada, Europe, Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Asia.
The brochure showcases the carefully crafted itineraries with tour managers on every tour, along with the choice of airlines, where to dine on many tours with the ?Diner?s choice? and how to experience a chosen destination through ?Choice on Tour?.
Carl Burrows, the company's UK MD, said: ?We are bringing our preview brochure out earlier than ever before, on the back of customer demand and strong early bookings already for 2018 and 2019. We have had the best start ever to 2017 with trading up 25% year-on-year. It looks like we have been bucking the trend in April too, where we have just seen an increase in revenue of 50% year-on-year for the month, which is great news in light of the impending election. ?
To encourage early bookings, savings of up to ?500 per person are available on bookings made before August 31, with 2018 holidays secured for a ?99 per person deposit.
Meanwhile, the brochure launch will be supported by increased incentives for agents booking between now and August and a new online training course at collette-academy.co.uk has also been launched to help agents understand more about the company and what it offers.
As an example of prices, a 13-day Cultural Treasures of Japan option visits Tokyo, Hakone, Matsumoto, Takayama, Kanazawa, Kyoto and Hiroshima and leads in at ?4,419. It includes four-star breakfast accommodation, luggage porterage, the services of a tour manager, four lunches and seven dinners and is based on two adults sharing a twin room. Flights from Heathrow and private transfers are also included.
