Not all tour companies are created equal

Schools continue to trust Tour Time because we specialise in school and group travel exclusively – our business is dedicated to ensuring smooth and successful travel for school groups, sports teams and music ensembles, rather than individual travellers.

For your financial protection, Tour Time is TAANZ financially bonded and licensed. TAANZ provides consumer protection and independent auditing of its members, meaning all client funds are held in separated and bonded bank accounts that are not being used for anything other than your specific tour costs (ie. your money can't be used for wages, rent, advertising, another school's tour etc). Find out more information here.

Our handling of COVID-related cancellations, where we refunded all 56 travelling groups in cash rather than issuing credits demonstrated our commitment to financial integrity and customer care, and is an example of the protection working with a TAANZ bonded agent gives schools.

Another benefit of our TAANZ financial bonding and the trust we have built with companies worldwide over the past 30+ years is the exclusive partnerships we can offer with organisations from the Kennedy Space Center International Academy and Space Trek based at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, through to the Sports Academy in the USA and pro football clubs across the UK and Europe.

If you would like to discuss what TAANZ financial bonding means, how it protects your tour funds, and why Tour Time is an industry leader in financial protection and group travel, give us a call or send us an email – 0800 86 8784, info@tourtime.co.nz
