Tour organiser A tour organiser pulls together packages from a range of suppliers to create specific types of holiday. This package may be a package created by another company or a dynamic package, which has been created individually for each booking. The package is typically sold direct to the customer using direct marketing and the phone or internet. Becoming a tour organiser will require a network of suppliers to cover carriers, accommodation and services. Once this network is in place the challenge of marketing and selling the tours in a viable way, needs to be met. It remains a good option to enter the travel industry as the start up costs are relatively low and the breadth of the start-up business is narrow.
