Albatross Tours has opened its biggest Summer 2027 season yet, with five new itineraries across France, Türkiye and Greece and a $350 per person Early-Bird deal on every tour until 30 September. Add festive 2026 departures that are 100 per cent guaranteed, and you have a rare thing in touring: an easy sell your clients can commit to today.
There’s a reason advisors keep coming back to Albatross Tours for Europe. Longer stays, smaller groups and a more leisurely pace, all built for Australian and New Zealand travellers, and all backed by three decades of doing one thing properly.
For 2027, there’s more of it, and a clear reason to book now. Here’s what’s new, what makes it sell, and why the clock matters.
The Early-Bird: $350 off every Summer 2027 tour
The simplest hook first. Every Albatross Summer 2027 tour includes a $350 per person Early-Bird saving, available until 30 September. No fine-print maze, no select-departures-only catch, just $350 per person off the lot.
It’s the kind of clean, quotable offer that turns a “maybe next year” conversation into a deposit. The full range sits on the Summer 2027 program page.
Five new tours for 2027
The new season adds five itineraries, spanning three countries and a lot of client types:
- French Epicurean Trail: Champagne, Alsace, Burgundy and Provence, for the client who plans a holiday around the next great meal and glass.
- Northern France: Normandy, Brittany, the Loire Valley and Chantilly, a history-rich region few travellers reach on their own.
- Leisurely France: Bordeaux, the Dordogne, La Rochelle and the Loire Valley, at the unhurried pace the name promises.
- Türkiye: Cappadocia, Gallipoli and Ancient Troy, a natural pick for clients drawn to history and landscape in equal measure.
- Leisurely Greek Islands: Rhodes, Crete, Santorini and Mykonos, island-hopping without the logistics headache.
Three new France options give you real range to match the client in front of you, while Türkiye and the Greek Islands open up the Mediterranean for something different in 2027.
Longer stays, smaller groups, genuinely inclusive
This is where Albatross earns the booking. Groups average 22 travellers and never exceed 28, so your clients get quieter sites, easier dinners and a Tour Manager who knows their name by day two.
The stays are longer, and the pace is leisurely by design, which means less living out of a suitcase and more time to actually feel a place. And the tours are genuinely inclusive, so the sightseeing, meals and experiences that matter are already in the price rather than bolted on later.
It’s premium coach touring built specifically for Australian and New Zealand travellers, and it’s a formula the trade has recognised: Albatross is a multi-award winner of the NTIA’s Most Outstanding Specialised Tour Operator award.
Festive 2026 is already guaranteed to depart
Here’s the reassurance that makes booking easy right now. Albatross’s Christmas, New Year and Northern Lights 2026 tours are 100 per cent guaranteed to depart, so advisors and clients can book with certainty rather than crossing fingers on numbers.
As the pioneers of Christmas touring with 31 years of selling festive adventures, they know how to do the season. Standouts include the Austrian Christmas Holiday, the German Fairytale Christmas, Iceland: Fire, Ice Caves and Frozen Waterfalls, and the ever-popular Northern Lights, Ice Hotels and Huskies.
For clients who’ve talked about a white Christmas or the aurora for years, a guaranteed departure is the nudge that finally turns talk into a booking.
Ready to book?
The Early-Bird deal runs until 30 September, so the window to lock in $350 per person off a 2027 tour is genuinely finite.
