Brad Bennetts, APT & Travelmarvel’s Head of Sales & Business Development, said:
“In the UK, APT & Travelmarvel has become a household name for river, yacht and small ship cruising, but less widely known is that we started life as a touring operator, founded by Bill McGeary back in 1927.
“We have launched The Grand Touring Event to remind the trade of the range of award-winning tours we offer, and to showcase the immersive, insightful itineraries and wide range of exciting destinations that our partners can sell to their clients.
“Each journey is crafted using our near-100 years of experience, and delivers the same APT gold standard of service, support, and meticulous planning that the industry has come to expect on the rivers.”
