Classic Vacations has announced its new partnership with Project Expedition, a portal for travel advisors to discover and book excursions and tours. The first integrated partnership within Classic Vacations’ new booking engine, this collaboration pairs the expertise and resources of two global travel companies by bolstering Classic’s portfolio of hotels, air travel and transportation, with tours and activities.
Project Expedition brings an extensive network of experiences, with new options added weekly from in-destination partners. Travel advisors can now integrate excursions, tours, day passes, multi-day trips, private and group attractions, and ticketed events into their client’s itineraries, directly through Classic Vacations.
By integrating Project Expedition into the Classic Vacations booking engine, Classic provides the advisor community with a streamlined experience to earn commission while offering their clients frictionless itineraries, marking a significant step forward in travel advisor technology. Project Expedition’s portfolio includes exclusive experiences and activities from the highest-rated tour operators across the globe, including thousands in preferred Classic Vacations destinations like Europe, the Caribbean, Hawaii and Mexico. The Classic Vacations booking platform already includes over 1,400 Project Expedition tour and activity options in Europe alone with more to come.
In Rome, for example, advisors now have the option to package private sightseeing tours of the Colosseum, the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican. In Paris, options include walking tours where travelers can take in the iconic Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, pausing for wine tasting along the way. In St. Lucia, options include island tours, rum tastings, mud baths and catamaran charters. In Maui, travelers can venture on a guided sunrise bike tour of the Haleakala Volcano, or in Cancun, Tulum, and Playa del Carmen, travelers can enjoy a personally guided once-in-a-lifetime adventure to Chichen Itza and its surrounding cenotes.
In addition, Classic Vacations recently announced a significant technology investment to empower travel advisors, including enhancements to push itineraries through an elevated AXUS integration, a new Classic VIP Connect program that informs hotels of an advisor’s preferred clients’ arrival, and the enhanced booking platform that allows the curation of multiple destinations in one itinerary. Classic Vacations continues to build the online experience for luxury travel advisors while also offering advantageous commissions and access to the industry’s leading advisor incentive program, Royalty Rewards.
