Advantage Travel Partnership launches the Advantage Tour Finder to help agents compare more than 10,000+ tours worldwide. Members will be able to source detailed tour information, itineraries and pricing with the platform customisable by tour type, duration, cost, destination and operator. Designed and powered by TourHound, Advantage members will have exclusive use from the end of May 2018 for a limited period.
