In partnership with Tourism Switzerland, TTC Tour Brands is inviting top advisors from around the world to apply for a chance to travel on an educational, custom trip showcasing offerings from Trafalgar, Costsaver,Insight Vacations and Luxury Gold in Switzerland.

The trip will focus on each brand's 'Make Travel Matter' Experiences, to help advisors introduce sustainable travel options known as 'Swisstainable' experiences to their clients interested in traveling to Switzerland.

"We're looking forward to continuing our partnership with Tourism Switzerland and having the opportunity to give top advisors first-hand experience with our products in Switzerland," says Melissa DaSilva, President of TTC Tour Brands, North America.

"Sustainable travel is extremely important to our brands. By showcasing some of our key 'Make Travel Matter' Experiences we hope the advisors on this trip will learn what makes this an important aspect of the travel experience with TTC Tour Brands."

On this itinerary departing July 22, 2023, participants will spend seven days travelling throughout Switzerland with stops in Lucerne, St. Moritz, Zermatt and Geneva.

Advisors will have the chance to experience programming from all four TTC Tour Brands from a Trafalgar 'Be My Guest' dinner in Kussnacht to a Costsaver Choice Optional Experience by way of a funicular railway and Cabrio cable car to summit Mount Stanserhorn.

Fam participants will also enjoy an Insight Vacations VIP dining experience at Drehrestaurant Rondorama, with breath-taking 360° panoramic views, a Luxury Gold inspired hike through the Swiss Alps with a local expert, a rail journey on the world-famous Glacier Express from St. Moritz to Zermatt, and more.

Advisors will take part in 'Make Travel Matter' Experiences across the brands, including a visit to the Swiss Transportation Museum for an interactive sustainability tour courtesy of Luxury Gold, a visit to the Alpinum Culinarium, a hub for regional culinary excellence where advisors will learn from an expert guide about rare fruits and berries and enjoy a seasonal juice tasting plus a dinner at sustainable restaurant, Schäfer Stube, through Insight Vacations. In Lake Geneva, travellers will learn about Switzerland's wine ecosystem with a tasting and lunch inspired by Luxury Gold.

The accommodations on this trip will reflect those that would be experienced on each brand's itineraries from the Astoria Hotel in Lucerne, for an Insight Vacations; the Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski in St. Moritz; for Luxury Gold and the Mirabeau Hotel which is akin to Trafalgar accommodations.
