In March we recruited a group of enthusiastic travel agents to embark on our TTG Sustainable Travel Heroes programme, which is exclusively designed to educate the trade on how to sell more responsible holidays.
Delivering workshops in partnership with AE Expeditions (part of Aurora Expeditions), the Greek National Tourism Organisation, Iberostar Hotels & Resorts, Intrepid Travel and TTC Tour Brands, we covered off everything from carbon footprints and greenwashing to how to reduce negative impacts and encourage positive impacts. Agents have also attended fam trips to the Dominican Republic, South Africa and the Greek island of Naxos to further strengthen their knowledge. Here’s what our Ambassadors thought of the programme and how they intend to sell holidays that benefit both the planet and its people.
