to the FAQ list
Well first
and foremost, you should ask yourself: How did we get on the first page
(non-sponsored) of all the search engines.The answer is simple: Popularity. We simply could not get this type of
placement if our Company's Vacation packages and tours were not popular.
Over 30 years of experience.
We know the Travel Industry inside and out. Our employees have
previously worked in the Airline, Hotel, car rental and Tourism Board
industries and some of our destination specialists have over 30 years of
experience in customizing vacation packages.
Reputation and reliability.
Every
year, we compete with all other Tour Operators for the most prestigious
awards that Government Tourist Offices deliver to the most trusted
operators. These awards are debated and voted via
a panel of top travel professionals selected by the Government Tourism
entities.
We are
proud to be the 2008-2009 Winner of the Official French Government
Tourist Office "Most Active Partner" in Chicago on October 26, 2008 and
"Most Extensive Offer" on October 28, 2009 in New York City. We were
also nominated as "The Best Special Interest Tour Operator" and "the
Most extensive offer".
We are also
proud to have been selected as the Official US Tour Operator for the world
famous Juan Les Pins France Jazz Festival 2010.
Destination Expertise.
Our mission has always been to provide
independent travelers, school and University groups with the best Travel
Experience we could offer, with integrity and with the highest level of
satisfaction. Our friendly agents are experts in the destinations that
we provide Vacations packages to, many of them natives from the country
they sell.
We
specialize in key destinations as we are very selective regarding the
destinations that we program. We started selling France 30 years ago
quickly followed by Italy as most of our staff is from France and Italy.
We then were approached by other European receptive who asked us to
apply our “know how” and asked us to start representing them and develop
their country. This is the case for our Ireland, UK and Eastern
Europe programs.
