The Travel Agent Next Door agent Chen Yu has been recognized G Adventures' number one agent for "most lives changed" in Canada as well as in the world.
The recognition is part of an incentive called ChangeMakers, which celebrates 8 agents from markets around the world and comes from G Adventures’ belief that its small group tourism changes the lives of its travelers.
Advisors who booked any of their clients with a G Adventures trip through the tour operator's dedicated Sherpa portal were automatically entered into their region's Change Makers challenge.
“As a travel advisor in Chinese communities, I have a passion for building a bridge between the Chinese travellers with wonderful tour operators, “ said Yu. “As a Chinese immigrant, this achievement is a milestone for me and for our Chinese travellers too. I know how brave they are to explore the world. I would like to thank G Adventures for making this possible.”
“Chen has been the most amazing agent of change for G Adventures over many years. She is the perfect partner, she's someone who works closely within her own local community, she's someone who recognizes the importance of supporting community tourism when she travels and she cares passionately about delivering great service to her clients,” said David Green, VP Sales and Managing Director Canada, G.
“We've fostered an incredible relationship over the years that has focused on creating life changing experiences for her travelers, and throughout this journey Chen's client base has grown through word of mouth on the back of some amazing experiences. We are really proud of Chen, for all her hard work and for winning the GX- Most Lives Changed Award.”
Advisors who booked any of their clients with a G Adventures trip through the tour operator's dedicated Sherpa portal were automatically entered into their region's Change Makers challenge. Winners were invited to the GX Summit, the inaugural event in Peru that brought together over 350 people to celebrate community tourism and see firsthand the impact that the company makes when travelling responsibly.
“This is an incredible achievement for Chen Yu,” said Flemming Friisdahl, TTAND CEO. “We are extremely proud of her.”
