IRISH TOUR OPERATORS & HANDLING AGENTS – MAKING BUSINESS EASY IN IRELAND

Irish Inbound Handling Agents and Tour Operators are experts on Ireland and its tourism product. The benefits of using the

professional services of these specialists are that you and your clients have the very best experience when holidaying in Ireland.

Their intimate knowledge of the product, people and place of Ireland, will ensure that they deliver creative packaged programs and

itineraries that meet customer expectations and not just on budget but on experience. If you are looking for a one stop shop on the

best of what Ireland delivers then a local Handling Agent or Tour Operator is the answer. Simply put we deliver by:

• Assisting overseas tour operating partner companies in developing brochure content, marketing programmes, training

and familiarisation visits.

• Creatively packaging the Irish tourism product for groups, free independent travelers (FITs) and business tourism.

• Providing competitively priced land arrangements which in the majority of cases will be in the local tour operator’s language.

• Full on-the-ground backup services to your client.
