Five fam trips will take place in 2026 for agents with varying levels of escorted touring experience, representing the brands' biggest-ever lineup of agent fams
The experience level approach was introduced in 2024; trips are split into 'Beginner', 'Intermediate', and 'Expert' levels depending on the invited agents' sales and knowledge in the area.
'Beginner' trips include Greece and Chateau Monet's Garden in Giverny, one 'Intermediate' option will take place in Uzbekistan and the 'Expert' trip will head to Vietnam. The Greece and Uzbekistan trips are open to applications, while 'Expert' agents will be invited by the Travelsphere and Just You sales team.
Rachel Mould, head of sales UK, said the 2026 fam trip roster "reflects how essential travel agents are to the growth of escorted touring. By creating our largest and most diverse range of options, we’re giving agents the hands-on knowledge they need to inspire more customers to try escorted touring.
"Due to feedback from the trade, we have doubled our ‘beginner’ fam trips, providing an avenue for new-to-touring agents to learn more and build their knowledge."
As well as four dedicated fam trips, a 'Winners' showcase will see 10 agents who won prizes at various conferences and events throughout the year invited to see the best of Albania.
All trips include return flights, meals and non-sharing accommodation.
