Voyages Jules Verne Nominated for British Travel Award

LONDON, September 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Voyages Jules Verne received nomination for the Best Specialist Escorted Tours Operator category at the prestigious British Travel Awards.

Because it is the consumer who ultimately determines the winners at The British Travel Awards rather than a panel of judges, it is widely acknowledged as the most accurate reflection of consumer sentiment and therefore the definitive monitor of public opinion covering performance in the travel and tourism industry. The fact that these prestigious awards are also the largest awards programme in the UK further consolidates their reputation as one of the most sought after accolades for any travel company.

Recognised by consumers and travel professionals throughout the UK, The British Travel Awards are widely referred to as the "Oscars" of the travel industry and are easily the most recognisable of all travel industry accolades amongst consumer and industry professionals alike. With categories spanning 100 types of holiday experiences, including transport, destination, cruise, customer service, holiday extras and accommodation, the British Travel Awards is the benchmark for excellence when it comes to finding out who really is the best in the business*.

The VJV nomination is the result of the tour operator's continued commitment to offering the highest levels of customer satisfaction.  VJV is continually looking for new destinations, new combinations of cities and countries, to complement its ever popular collection, including China holidays and India holidays. The addition of special events and different modes of transport mean that its portfolio of travel arrangements always stay fresh and exciting, another major draw for travellers looking for a more innovative holiday experience.
