Our Beginnings
Travel Alliance Partnership was established in 2001 with a simple vision – to join forces with quality Tour Operators who each offered their own area of geographical expertise, working together to fill more scheduled departures, reduce cancellations and expand product portfolios.
Over the last 20 years, TAP has built a partnership of travel professionals with high standards of business ethics and product quality, who buy and sell products from each other, as well as engaging in joint marketing opportunities and sharing business practices in an environment of mutual trust and respect. Products are purchased in a profitable fashion with the savings passed on to the consumer, as well as an increased market share for TAP’s key suppliers.
Our Promise
Collaborative growth continues to be the heart of the TAP community, and our TAP Tour Operator members benefit by reducing their operating costs, increasing awareness of their product within the industry, and gaining fresh perspectives – both from each other, and from the other travel professionals that make up the TAP community.
From small destinations and local attractions, to regional or international tour operators, everyone has a part to play in our tour & travel ecosystem. Learn more about membership in the TAP community, where relationships are strong, the members are your peers, and collaboration is the key to mutual benefits.
