Travel agents and tour operators got the chance to network and enjoy a flutter on the horses at Tipto’s summer VIP day out.
Agents located in regions nearby were invited to join around 16 Tipto suppliers at the event at Newbury Races, which included lunch and afternoon tea.
Events director Lorna Willis‑Edwards said the event was a “thank you to the trade” for supporting its events.
She said: “This is the first time we have run an event in this region and we just wanted to say thank you and for everyone to enjoy themselves. We have had a brilliant year and in September we will start our 25th year so we will be planning some special events.”
Tipto has held 33 events over the last 12 months, including its roadshows and ‘Super Shows’, which have been attended in total by 1,600 agents.
In recent weeks it has announced a raft of new members that will join in September, including Ambassador Cruise Line, DriveAway, Yalago and USAirtours.
