Collette has launched its 2027 program in Australia with eight new small-group Explorations tours, travel advisor incentives and traveller discounts. 

Collette’s Explorations travel style is seeing strong growth in the Australian market as travellers seek smaller groups, deeper cultural connection and more thoughtfully paced journeys.

Designed by experts living in the region, each tour operates with an average of just 19 travellers, allowing for greater access to boutique accommodation and off-the-beaten path experiences.

“Travellers are looking beyond just where they go – they’re focused on how they experience a destination,” Collette Australia managing director Karen Deveson said.

“Explorations is at the centre of that shift, offering smaller groups, more time in destination, and the kind of access that allows travellers to connect more deeply with the places they visit.”

New Collette Explorations for 2027 include:

  • Iconic South Africa, 13 days
  • Celtic Traditions, 13 days
  • Sardinia and Corsica, 15 days
  • Iconic Iceland, seven days
  • Italy Uncovered, 12 days
  • Gems of Tuscany, 11 days
  • Treasures of the Mekong, 12 days
  • Northwest Uncovered, 10 days

To support the launch of season 2027-2028, Collette is introducing an Early Bird offer. Travellers can save up to 20 per cent on 2027-2028 departures when booking with code EARLYBIRD27 between 1 July and 31 August 2026.

Advisors can offer even greater value to their clients with Collette’s complimentary Private Chauffeur Service to and from the airport, subject to conditions.

Travel advisors can also earn a $200 gift card for every deposited booking made as part of the Early Bird sale.

With more than 8,000 guaranteed seats secured across its 2027 Small Group Explorations program, giving agents greater confidence when recommending and closing bookings.
