The Travel Corporation (TTC) is to open up its DMC portfolio for other travel companies to ‘white label’, in response to opportunities that became apparent during the pandemic, according to a media release.
TTC has a wide and comprehensive portfolio of varied experiences offered by its operators: Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Contiki, Red Carnation Hotels, Uniworld Boutique River Cruises and Evan Evans Tours.
Gavin Tollman, TTC president, said: “During the uncertainty of the pandemic, we spoke to a number of our partners who were looking for an operational solution with the quality, knowledge, infrastructure, consistency and financial resilience to deliver on the ground in a new post-pandemic world – but they were hitherto unaware of the depth and breadth of TTC’s destination management portfolio.”
In response, the company has now launched a dedicated website (https://dmc.ttc.com/) and a series of new tools outlining the extent of its offering, and the financial strength that supports it, thereby presenting this hassle- and risk-free opportunity to a wider range of leisure and corporate travel businesses.
Offerings range from culturally immersive escorted travel, river cruising and day tours, to bespoke features including custom groups, yachts and small-ship cruising, safari operations, meetings, conferences and events, self-drive and rail journeys, private chauffeurs and small groups, specialist trips (such as culinary or active), transfer services and much more.
The DMC programme will also offer guided customised group trips in a number of languages other than English - including Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Turkish, Spanish, German and Italian.
TTC has twelve different DMCs that offer holidays, local experiences, corporate travel and ancillary services across Africa, Europe, the Americas and the South Pacific, and already operates as ground handler for a number of internationally recognised travel brands.
