Agents offered special APT European river cruise rate

A special travel agent rate of £699 is being offered by APT on Travelmarvel European river cruises.

The deal is valid on sailings between May and August in the final phase of a drive to welcome agents on board its fleet. The £699 rate is also extended to guests.

The new initiative follows the unveiling of plans to host more than 70 agents on fam trips and ship visits during the year – double the number of agents hosted in pre-pandemic 2019 and triple the number in 2022.

Additionally, APT & Travelmarvel’s ‘Book Three, Sail Free’offer, enabling agents to earn a free river cruise for every three bookings made, runs until the end of April.

Head of sales and business development Brad Bennetts said: “Being able to experience Travelmarvel’s European river cruising for just £699 is a fantastic opportunity for agents.

“Not only can they enjoy a wonderful holiday on Europe’s rivers, but agents can also see why our new contemporary ships are among the most exciting vessels on the rivers. 

“Gaining first-hand experience is key when it comes to selling effectively and will lead to agents securing more business and higher commissions.”
