BUNNIK Tours CEO Dennis Bunnik says the debut of the company’s new Small Group Touring Co. (TD breaking news) aims to respond to the growing demand for small group travel.
Bunnik has leveraged long-established relationships with suppliers for its existing portfolio to develop the new product, which is launching with 30 trips taking in Africa, Asia, Central America, Europe, the Middle East and South America.
Small Group Touring Co. trips are shorter in length, land only and are aimed at a broader global market than Bunnik Tours, which is only sold in Australia.
“We know that more and more people are looking for that small group touring option and the Small Group Touring Co. offers a group size of 12 to 18 travellers so we can ensure that everyone on tour has the best opportunity to connect with the sights, customs and culture of their tour destination,” Bunnik told TD.
“We believe that the two brands will complement each other well within the Australian market.”
The Small Group Touring Co., headed up by Senior Bunnik Executive Kevin Bishop, is a “digital-first” operation based in the company’s wholly-owned office in Sri Lanka, which can be contacted toll-free 8.30am-5.30pm AEST on 1800 865 285.
The new venture also has an office in the USA, where the brand soft launched in Q4 of 2018.
Bishop said Small Group Touring Co. clients were people “looking for an active holiday without foregoing the creature comforts, like superior accommodation and delicious food”.
Strictly limited launch offers include a 50% discount on several early departures, available on a first come first served basis until 28 Feb – for more details see smallgrouptouringco.com.au.
