Explora Journeys welcomes agents on board for reward sailing

Explora Journeys welcomed 22 Travel Counsellors on board its new ship, Explora I.

The agents spent seven nights sailing the line’s Wild Heart of Iceland itinerary from Reykjavik to Copenhagen.

The trip was designed to recognise the agents’ recent success and was used as an incentive on the agency’s new reward scheme.

All 22 agents and their guests enjoyed exclusive dinners on the ship, which launched on August 1, as well as shore excursions.

Since the sailing, four Travel Counsellors have secured Explora Journeys bookings for their customers, while two have booked their own holidays.

Janet Whittngham, head of cruise at Travel Counsellors, said: “This trip was an amazing experience for all involved and we were extremely lucky to be one of the first groups to experience this new concept and ship. It was truly luxury at sea.

“Whilst this was primarily an opportunity to reward some of our community for their recent efforts, the trip also provided some invaluable training, enabling our entrepreneurs to immerse themselves in the experience and come away inspired by what luxury and exclusive cruise holidays they could offer to their customers who are perhaps looking for something a bit different.”
