The Excellence Award recognises people in the travel trade who provide great service and support to group travel organisers for their trips and holidays. 

Presented at the Group Leisure & Travel Awards ceremony, previous winners have included individuals who have worked for tour operators, attractions, cruise lines and more.

Update: nominations have now closed and a shortlist of finalists will be revealed soon.

Each year the individuals in contention for this special award make such a difference when it comes to your experience, whether it’s ensuring that the booking process is as smooth as possible or creating a memorable trip for your members, with those extra special touches to make it the best it can be.

Tour guide

People in the travel trade are often the unsung heroes making group trips and holidays a success for GTOs and their members.

As a GTO you want to be in safe hands, knowing that everything has been thought through and the whole journey, from the initial booking enquiry all the way through to the experience itself, runs smoothly.

But it’s often when the unexpected happens on a trip that an individual comes into their own, offering the right level of help and support to deal with any challenges.
