Maher Tours has launched a new department dedicated to FIT Africa and South America wholesale arrangements. The move comes as the company sees increasing demand from retail agents.

Maher Tours has enhanced its website and put together new tools to assist agents in selling its newly released programme for 2022.

Business manager Emily Newrick says the website has been refreshed and made more user friendly for agents. ‘They can now download all of the brochures directly but they are still able to fill in a request form if they need more. We’ve included a range of testimonials which can be used as well.’
