TravelManagers’ Showcase of Diverse Famil Experiences in 2026
The first half of 2026 has seen TravelManagers’ personal travel managers (PTMs) gaining firsthand insight into some of the world’s most sought-after travel experiences, from breathtaking rail journeys to spectacular wildlife encounters, thanks to an extensive array of famil opportunities with their key supplier partners.
In April, PTM Kari Boys was hosted by Armstrong Collective on Canyon Spirit’s ‘Rockies to Red Rocks’ rail adventure, experiencing a journey that combines luxury rail travel with some of the American Southwest’s most dramatic landscapes.

Their experiences ranged from a traditional hanok stay in Gyeongju to shopping up a storm in Seoul’s famous Gangnam district.
A further eight PTMs were hosted by Intrepid for a seven-night Sri Lankan safari that combined exquisite culinary, cultural and wildlife encounters.
TravelManagers’ Executive General Manager, Michael Gazal, says, “Experiencing a destination firsthand enables our PTMs to provide their clients with deeper insights, more personalised recommendations and greater confidence when planning their travels.”
