AAT Kings launches down under spring sale
Australia and New Zealand escorted tour operator AAT Kings has launched a new sale aimed at UK travel agents, with headline savings of up to £500 per person.
The offer is available on new bookings of selected small group and classic group tours which depart between 1 April 2026 and 31 March 2027.
Bookings must be made before 31 March 2026.
The discount is based on the length of tour booked, with the maximum £500pp available on tours of 16 days or more, such as Untamed New Zealand.
This small group tour departs from Auckland and returns to Christchurch, spending 17-days exploring the best of the north and south islands, including an overnight cruise in Milford Sound, a guided Art Deco walking tour in Napier and wine tasting at a boutique Wairarapa vineyard.
Discount levels are:
16+ days – save up to £500pp – code SAVE500
12 – 15 days – save up to £400pp – code SAVE400
9 – 11 days – save up to £300pp – code SAVE300
7 – 8 days – save up to £220pp – code SAVE220
Small group tours were newly introduced last year, along with ex-UK flight inclusive packages.
Ben Hall, AAT Kings Group CEO, said: “Our new small group tours are proving to be popular with UK guests and now account for around 30% of all sales. The more intimate style clearly appeals, and there is great potential for our trade partners.”
To celebrate the launch of the new Spring offer, AAT Kings is running an agent incentive through its A-Listers loyalty programme, along with bitesize ‘Teatime Training’ sessions.
A-LISTERS Agent Academy is a trade exclusive hub, containing podcasts, videos, rewards, marketing assets, images, and sales tools.
A Learning Hub is linked to each podcast episode, so agents can complete training quizzes and progress through tiers, from ‘Go-Getter’ and ‘Rising-Star’ levels to reach ‘A-LISTER’ status.
Throughout February, agents will earn gift cards for every guided holiday booking made (including short breaks and classic group tours) with departure dates between 1 April 2026 and 31 March 2027.
The higher the A-LISTER status, the higher the reward from Go-Getters – £25 gift card per booking, Rising Stars – £50 gift card per booking and A-LISTERS – £75 gift card per booking
To avail these, bookings should be registered by emailing [email protected] by 28 February 2026. Visit the AAT Kings A-LISTERS Agent Academy for further details.
Every Tuesday until the end of March, agents can watch a short 10-minute training video hosted by the UK trade team, Heather Colbourn and Gary Skilling. The videos cover a range of topics including product, promotions and sales tools, and are accompanied by a ‘Wednesday Windays’ quiz question to win prizes such as Life:style gift cards and Australia and New Zealand themed treats.
Winners are announced each Monday.
