At Audley Emma juggles marketing with responsible travel, something which is integral to Audley’s ethos. Whether this is identifying community projects and environmental lodges or looking at different ways that we can support overseas initiatives. Emma’s interest in travel started when she went to Kenya at the age of 18, working at a school on the plains on the edge of the Nairobi National Park. This was followed by a second year away to Australia and Southeast Asia, in addition to many trips to Canada where her family originated.

The Canada department of Audley Travel swept the board on 12th March at the BACTAs, British Annual Canada Travel Awards in London. Audley won all three categories that we had been nominated for, coming first in the categories of:

  • Best Exploration of Print
  • Best Exploration of Digital Media
  • Best Exploration of Product

As the newest department at Audley Travel, the Canada department have acheived amazing recognition at such an early stage. It is the first time in the event’s long history that one tour operator has won three awards, which is fantastic industry recognition.

The Best Exploration of Digital Media is also the first award to be given to the new Audley website, which was launched just over a month ago.

Special Mention

Prize for raising the bar when it comes to delivering customer “delight” goes to James. Whilst his clients simply went to Namibia, their bag apparently did a tour of London – J’burg – Malawi – Zambia – J’burg (again) – Switzerland – London. James remained on the case (pun intended) for 40 days, tirelessly haranguing indifferent airline staff and he finally managed to get the bag back to some very appreciative clients.

Audley Travel runs 10k

There is nothing like a good cause to get us out of our seats and pelting our way around a 10k track, red faced and out of breath – well I was anyway. About 20 of the Audley team turned out to run around Blenheim Palace estate on a miserable September Sunday for Cancer Research. Continue reading »
