“Congratulations to all of our People’s Choice Award Finalists! This award is a special recognition from the travelling public, underscoring the exceptional service and dedication of our ATAS-accredited brands, sometimes in life-changing ways,” ATIA’s acting CEO Ingrid Fraser said.
“We’re excited to see who will take home the title of ‘People’s Champion’ at this year’s NTIA.”
Contiki managing director, TTC Tour Brands, Toni Ambler, said she was thrilled to be a Finalist for the NTIA’s People’s Choice Award.
“For many Contiki travellers, their first big adventure starts with us, and being ATAS-accredited is our way of saying, ‘We’ve got you’,” Ambler said.
“It gives that extra peace of mind knowing you’re booking with a trusted operator who’ll look after all the important details, so you can focus on making the most of your trip and creating the next legendary Contiki story.”
