Just seen that we are a finalist in the Travelmole Best Tour Operator website, which is very exciting! Last year we won the Best Responsible Tourism website so I’m hopeful we might do well!
On the subject of awards I should also congratulate the Adventure Company & Netizen for their recent win for Best use of Technology on a Travel website at the Travolution awards . They have obviously been spending a lot of time on the web as they have two new website live now as well!
Can’t wait until the Explore one goes live!
Also should mention our good friends at Select World Travel who also got nominated for a Travolution award in Best use of Social Media for their blog site. They are a travel agent based in Malvern who sell our tours and have a blog well worth reading.
Apparently the Virgin Responsible Travel Awards are also upon us too and you can nominate travel companies here. We have been short listed for the last three years for an award as RT is a key part of our ethos.
Its obviously awards season!
thanks for the mention.
it is indeed awards season. thankfully the Travo awards covers areas of the travel industry not normally recognised, such as the Netizen Digital/Adventure Company prize.

Paul, thanks for the kind words. Select World Travel also recently walked away with two of the industry’s most prestigious awards at the Agent Achievemement Awards.
We Won the UK Sales and Business Development Promotion of the Year award and also The TIPTO award for Independent Agency Proprietors of the year and were finalists in the categories of Innovation of the year and Central England Leisure Travel Agency of the year.
My Daughter Katie and I are going to be participating in an Explore Land of Ice and Fire trip in July as part of your Family programme. Perhaps we can do a guest Blog on our return?

Love to have you do a guest blog. I’m also going on Land of Ice and Fire (but in August). So it would be good to compare notes
On that note if anyone wants to contribute please let me know!
