The
Gambia Experience has been announced as the winner of ‘Best Holiday Company to
sub-Saharan Africa’, receiving Gold in the prestigious 2016 British Travel
Awards. The announcement was made on 23 November at a glamorous Gala Awards
ceremony, held in London and attended by close to a thousand travel industry
people.
The
Gambia Experience has been providing holidays to The Gambia for 29 years and is
proud to remain the UK’s leading holiday specialist to this destination,
working closely with hoteliers and suppliers. Offering a great range of flight
options and hotels as well as excursions and tours, its staff in The Gambia and
the UK work hard to ensure its customers have the best holiday experience.
Chris
Rowles, managing director at The Gambia Experience commented: “We are thrilled
to be the recipient of this prestigious award which is a testament to the hard
work of all our staff, based at our Senegambia office and here in the UK. I
would also like to thank hoteliers, our ground handler Discovery Tours, and all
our suppliers, for their continued support which enables us to provide our
customers with a superior service and a high-quality product.”
British
Travel Awards’ chief executive Lorraine Barnes Burton said: “The Gambia
Experience is to be congratulated on winning ‘Best Holiday Company to
sub-Saharan Africa’. The competition was fierce this year with more companies
entering the competition than ever before - but ultimately it is the travelling
public who decide the winners by voting for the travel companies they consider
the best in the business. The British Travel Awards is the largest awards
programme in the UK and to win is truly an accolade and testament to the great
products and services travel companies offer to their customers.”
