" Travel is about giving, not just taking. There is nothing I enjoy more than seeing how travel broadens the horizons of the traveler and importantly helps those we visit make a living. That is the true power of travel." Gavin Tollman Trafalgar CEO Our beginnings as a small hotel in a South African fishing village in 1920, set us on the path to recognize the impact of all year round travel. My grandfather, Solomon Tollman, was able to create a successful hotel trying to keep it full all year round by providing exceptional service. Through his hard work he inspired his son, Stanley Tollman, to build on these principles, which became The Travel Corporation (TTC), the parent company of Trafalgar.
l
TRAVEL FOR 18 - 35 YEAR OLDS
TTC is 'Driven by Service', a philosophy that began over 100 years ago. This belief along with travel all year round ensures our guests connect to the richness of Europe that only comes alive as the seasons change. The experiences you get are enhanced by those who welcome us to their homes and communities and are supported to sustain their livelihoods all year.
Helping women learn a trade: Handmade crafts at the Iraq al-Amir Women’s Center in Jordan.
Read more about our sustainability pledge at treadright.org and trafalgar.com/join-trafalgar
In 2009 my cousin Brett (TTC's CEO) had a vision to create TreadRight, a not-for-profit Foundation, to ensure future generations have the same privilege to travel. A year later we created JoinTrafalgar guided by TreadRight. Together we know that travel is one of life's greatest gift s. We understand we can't change the world, but it's imperative we do our part to ensure that our impact is a positive one. Simply put, to 'Make Travel Matter'. This belief underpins not only Trafalgar, but each and every one of TTC’s 42 award winning travel brands. Here are just 16 of them, each dedicated to protecting the people, places, wildlife and the planet we all share.
