Tour Week Returns at TTC Tour Brands – Here Are Your 2026 Fam Opportunities
by Bruce Parkinson
Travel Market Report Canada joined a Trafalgar tour week fam group in Germany last year.
TTC Tour Brands has announced the return of its Tour Week program for travel advisors following two sold-out editions and what the global tour operator calls “overwhelming demand from travel advisors.”
For 2026, TTC Tour Brands is inviting advisors to join a dozen FAM trips around the world, highlighting top experiences from Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Costsaver and Contiki.
Designed as more than a traditional familiarization trip, Tour Week blends immersive travel, expert-led training and sales empowerment into a single, high-impact experience that helps advisors sharpen product expertise and return ready to sell with confidence.
Last year, TMR Canada joined a Trafalgar familiarization tour of Germany during TTC Tour Week, a trip that reinforced the pleasures and advantages of guided travel.
“Tour Week isn’t just about experiencing our trips, it’s about giving advisors hands-on experience and guidance that they can use to increase their sales potential,” said Whitney Ramirez, SVP Sales, TTC Tour Brands North America. “Advisors return from Tour Week more confident, more credible with clients, and better equipped to grow their businesses.”
In 2025 alone, the program attracted over 1,000 applications from North American travel advisors and garnered international recognition for its innovation in trade education.
The next Tour Week iteration will depart in March and May 2026. Advisors will experience a special FAM version of the below itineraries, highlighting the top experiences from each with immersive training across Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Costsaver and Contiki.

10 trips across 5 continents in March 2026, including:
Trafalgar – Best of Greece
Trafalgar – Essence of South Africa
Trafalgar – Best of Holland, Belgium & Luxembourg
Trafalgar – Southern Charms
Trafalgar – Best of Eastern Canada
Insight Vacations – Wonders of Turkey
Insight Vacations – Normandy, Brittany & the Loire Valley
Costsaver – Picturesque Portugal
Costsaver – South America Samba
Contiki – Vietnam Highlights
Two itineraries in May 2026:

The program focuses on three core benefits:
LEARN: Expert-led training and destination immersion
LAUGH: Relationship-building with peers and TTC teams
LEVEL UP: Sales tools and confidence that convert into bookings
“We created Tour Week to offer advisors something truly new and distinctive that they can’t find anywhere else,” said Ramirez. “The response has been phenomenal and underscores the demand for more engaging experiences within the advisor community.”
These FAM opportunities are now available for advisors in North America for USD$1,099 per person (land-only). Applications are now open and close January 9, 2026, with confirmations issued in mid-January.
