Newmarket Holidays reports strongest operating month as it returns to its full product portfolio

Monday, May 30, 2022 0

Newmarket Holidays, the leading escorted tour operator, has reported its strongest operating month since the pandemic began. More than 320 tours, encompassing short-haul, long-haul and cruising, have departed so far in 2022, representing almost 7,000 customers to 37 countries.

Customer favourites like Elvis Presley’s Memphis, New Orleans & Nashville; Canada’s Rocky Mountaineer; Andre Rieu concert-ticket packages and Amsterdam and the Dutch Bulbfields are just a few among the many escorted tours that have returned.

Richard Forde, Head of Trade Sales said “To see so many customers departing on a full portfolio of worldwide tours feels like a major milestone. We’ve come so far over the past few months, thanks to our loyal agents and customers. We can’t wait for what the future holds. Not only has our full product portfolio resumed operation, but we also have several new additions to our programmes that we know our customers will love.”

The enhancement of Newmarket Holidays’ portfolio for 2022 until 2024 includes tours such as Madrid, Porto & the Douro Valley; Salzburg & the Austrian Tyrol; and Costa Rica – Wildlife, Rainforest & Caribbean Beach. New regional charters to Italy, Lake Molveno & the Italian Dolomites and The Italian Lakes are further itinerary additions, motivated by high demand for Italian-based holidays.

Forde continued; “It’s clear that our customers are planning for the present, as well as the future, which is why it’s important that we too plan ahead and offer tours, with departure dates for next year and beyond. This way, we can appeal to those eager to make up for lost time now or those who feel a bit hesitant but still want to secure wish-list trips for the future. There are also plenty of customers who are taking advantage of late deals – they are most definitely ready to reconnect with the world.”

Newmarket Holidays is currently running a content-led campaign – ‘Reconnect. Reimagine. Rediscover.’ which is supported by a ‘save up to 10 per cent’ incentive for August to October 2022 tours and bookable until 5 June.
