Ambassador Cruise Line has opened registrations for a 2025 UK ship visit programme designed exclusively for Group Tour Organisers.
These visits will be in addition to its ongoing agent programme, which has seen the British cruise line welcome several hundred agents onboard its fleet of small-to-midsize ships over the last three years.
In May, July and September this year, each ship visit will offer GTOs the opportunity to immerse themselves in the ‘Ambassador experience’ onboard both Ambience and her sister ship, Ambition at three regional ports in the UK: London Tilbury, Liverpool and Bristol.
Offering a taste of Ambassador’s unique product offering, visitors will be welcomed with tea and coffee by the company’s dedicated Groups trade team.
This will be followed by a short verbal introduction to the brand, its affordable quality, no-fly offering and an overview of the types of sailing offered. Agents will then embark on a full ship tour before enjoying a delicious five-course lunch.
GTO Ship Tour Dates
- 1 May 2025 – London Cruise Terminal – Ambience
- 13 July 2025 – Bristol Royal Portbury – Ambition
- 16 September – Liverpool – Ambition
Ambassador says it is looking to work “even more closely” with the group travel community in 2025, and will remain committed to supporting group organisers in any way it can with a view to driving brand awareness and showcasing all the great work Ambassador does.
Alan Rennie, Business Development Manager for Groups, said: “We’re incredibly proud to be launching our popular ship visit programme for Group Travel Organisers in addition to our ongoing programme for trade partners.
“We appreciate all the work group travel organisers continue to do to put the Ambassador offering on the map, whether that be for a club, society, business or association or even an extended group of family or friends looking to celebrate a special occasion.
“We know there is nothing like seeing and experiencing a product first-hand and there is a huge appetite within the GTO community to get a taste of the ‘warmest welcome at sea’.
“With a brilliant, affordable quality cruise product and a range of generous group booking incentives in place, we’ll be working even more closely with group organisers in the months and years to come and are looking forward to welcoming more of them than ever before onboard Ambience and Ambition in our regional ports in Tilbury, Liverpool and Bristol.”
Group Travel Organisers who would like to register for a ship visit should email groupsales@ambassadorcruiseline.com for a registration form and one of Ambassador’s Group trade team will confirm their spot.
