Luxury Travel Collection has announced that two new brands, Kylie Luttrell’s The Travel Notebook and the Adrienne Witteman and David Cooper-owned Trendsetter Travel and Cruise Centre, will be joining them.
Trendsetter Travel and Cruise Centre and The Travel Notebook bring the LTC community of luxury independent travel brands to 14, including the recent announcement of Melbourne-based, Take Off Go, owned by Ivona Siniarska.
LTC member portfolio general manager, Nikki Glading, said: “We could not be happier to welcome these exceptional teams into our family. These businesses have been embraced by our exceptional existing cohort for their outstanding commitment to delivering a distinctive luxury service to clients.”
Global managing director of FCTG Luxury and Independent Brands, Danielle Galloway, says the strength of famous foundation brand, Travel Associates, along with the growing portfolio of independently owned boutique luxury businesses demonstrates the importance of LTC’s position in the industry, and the holistic solution delivered by the curated house of luxury travel.
“We are elevating luxury travel to a fine art by continuing to build this portfolio in a sustainable and exclusive way by selecting and inviting the right new members to join LTC. Trendsetter Travel and The Travel Notebook are delivering high end client service with a unique and distinctive flair that fits well with our membership group,” she said.
Adrienne Witteman stated: ““Our Golf Cruises are always on luxurious small ships such as Seabourn, Silversea, Crystal, Tauck and Uniworld. Trendsetter Travel Golf Tours are unique among Australian golf tour operators as we offer our golf collection, combined with the luxury of small ship cruising – on both river and ocean itineraries.
“We select itineraries with long shore days at ports with high quality, ideally world famous, golf courses close by, and we make all the arrangements, so our clients don’t need to worry about a thing!
“We are also exceptional at getting to know our clients so well that we can recommend memorable tailored holidays (FIT) that not only inspire but also delight with those extra details and value we can add by using our deep industry expertise and connections,” she added.
Kylie Luttrell also said: “We are a team of passionate travel designers offering concierge style service to craft tailor made experiences to wonderful destinations. We all find it incredibly fulfilling and humbling to be part of our client’s journeys and helping to create cherished memories.
“Joining the Luxury Travel Collection community was an easy choice for me. Every detail of the business speaks to my love of luxury and the importance of the right luxury connections to make client’s dreams come true. I always put my client at the centre of everything and that’s one of the core values of LTC.”
Nikki Glading concluded: ““We love the distinctiveness of these travel brands – each one is unique, with a portfolio that is truly luxury and a desire to deliver wonderful client experience which is an important unifying value for LTC.”
