We are Travel Connect
Not a broker. A fully managed transport operation - built around your itineraries.
Travel Connect gives UK tour group operators a dedicated Account Manager, a nationwide supplier network backed by Transport UK Group, and 24/7 control room support - so you can focus on delivering the experience, not managing the logistics behind it.
Part of Transport UK Group - one of the UK's largest transport operators.
Access to hundreds of vehicle providers nationwide.
Dedicated support for operators running single tours to full seasonal programmes.
24/7 regional control teams - live support, not just an emergency number.
Up to 20% savings on full-season bookings.
The solution
Transport is most likely one of the biggest outgoing costs to your business. It's also one of the most important to get right.
Quality operators are harder to source. Costs have climbed. And managing multiple regional contacts in-house means more resource, more friction, and less time for you to focus on your customers. Most operators are either over-spending or under-supported. We fix both.
We're not a broker. We're a fully managed transport service - and that’s where you’ll benefit from the difference.
You save money - and we keep it transparent
Up to 20% savings on full-season bookings. Active dead mileage management. Preferential rates through Transport UK Group buying power.
Your transport runs without you running it
One Account Manager handles scoping, selection, route planning, driver briefings, and changes. You're informed, not involved.
When something goes wrong, someone's on it
24/7 regional control teams act - not just monitor. Road closures, vehicle issues, late tours: resolved before your passengers notice.
Full visibility without chasing for it
Real-time reporting, live data, and automated invoicing. Your ops and finance teams see what's happening without logging a single request.
We work directly with the operators so you don’t have to.
