Room-Res unveils multi-day tour booking service for agents
Edited by Travel Weekly


    Room-Res.com announced the launch of its multi-day tour booking service.

    Room-Res.com’s new service introduces a variety of curated multi-day tours worldwide, offering everything from self-drive tours in Italy, and private tours in Sri Lanka, to trekking in Peru and island hopping in Thailand.

    “Our primary goal at Room-Res is to make it easier to find great agent-only rates that provide a competitive edge for agents and great deals for their customers,” James Mooring, Co-CEO of Room-Res.com said.

    “We know that the customer demand for Multi-Day Tours is growing, but we wanted to bring an agent booking experience that is next level. As such, our net-rate multi-day tours are instantly confirmed, and the departure is guaranteed. No worries about dates or tours changing because not enough people have booked – if you book a couple onto a tour, the tour goes, taking that stress out of the planning and booking for agents.”

    The platform allows agents to hold bookings for up to seven days and then secure a tour with a 10 per cent deposit, providing much-needed flexibility.

    “As a business, we are relentlessly travel agent-focused and driven by the things that are important for our partners,” Nic Bryant, Co-CEO of Room-Res.com said.

    “Many of our partner agencies told us that quality and flexibility are critical when it comes to multi-day tours. By working with Musement (part of TUI) to create a unique range of tours operated exclusively by TUI’s own network of DMCs, we are confident that the tours’ quality, value and range will be a great fit for the Australian market. It’s all part of our mission to help agents win with better products, tools, customer value and agent margin.”
