“We couldn’t have achieved it without our amazing customers, many of whom have travelled with us numerous times, and of course our team of dedicated staff, both at the office and on the road.”

The UK’s best coach tour operators, destinations, visitor attractions, hotels, and tourism industry suppliers, were honoured on Wednesday (September 22) at the awards ceremony organised by Diversified Communications UK in Birmingham following the first day of the travel trade event, British Tourism & Travel Show.

Hosted by presenter (and Strictly Champion) Chris Hollins, stunning entertainment was provided by the Mamma Mia! Production, which contributed to what attendees called a truly memorable and ‘electric evening’.
