After Successful Debut, TTC Tour Brands Announces November TTC Tour Week

After Successful Debut, TTC Tour Brands Announces November TTC Tour Week

Travel Market Report Canada joined a Trafalgar tour week fam group in Germany.

Following the success of TTC Tour Brands’ inaugural TTC Tour Week in March, the company has announced that TTC Tour Week will return this November, offering nine itineraries crafted by Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Contiki and Costsaver.

With over 1,000 applicants and 500 advisors travelling on 13 immersive FAM trips across five brands around the globe, the industry-first inaugural TTC Tour Week made an exceptional impact, with participating advisors gaining firsthand experience with the award-winning brands they sell. 

Travel Market Report Canada was onboard for one of those trips, a Trafalgar tour of Germany beginning in Berlin and ending in Munich.

 “Tour Week is an invitation into the heart of the TTC Tour Brands experience,” said Whitney Ramirez, SVP of Sales at TTC Tour Brands. 

Trafalgar’s Krista Erickson and Audra Biernacki accompanied the Germany fam group in March.

“We created this initiative to help advisors sell with confidence by immersing them in what their clients will experience on tour. During Tour Week, advisors can forge lasting personal and professional connections, become part of a special community of like-minded peers, and be better equipped to deliver unforgettable client experiences.”

What’s Next: TTC Tour Week in November

Returning in November 2025, TTC Tour Week offers more opportunities for travel advisors to experience the power of guided travel with nine itineraries from four brands. Each tour promises to immerse advisors in meaningful moments that resonate with clients and are easy to sell, while showcasing how TTC Tour Brands creates impactful travel experiences for everyone, from solo travellers and couples to families and Gen Z explorers.
