Why choose Collette?
It’s the brand you know and trust for the flexible approach it has built into its touring products.
That’s really what sets us apart,” Collette CEO Jaclyn Leibl-Cote told Travel Weekly earlier this year.
“We’re not that stereotypical guided tour company that you would have thought of 5-10 years ago. We’ve really evolved because we’ve listened to the people taking the tours, the travellers, of course, the advisors as well – we always are listening to that.
“But the people who take the tours are the ones who also are giving us the feedback for how we need to continue to improve based on what their expectations are.”
