Joining TIPTO for its milestone 25th year with the aim of boosting its trade presence in the UK, Ambassador will educate agents on its unique product offering and wide range of authentic cruise experiences to increase knowledge, support strong relationships and ultimately encourage and convert enquiries into sales.
Based in Purfleet, Essex, Ambassador offers authentic adult-only cruise experiences combined with a selection of multi-generational itineraries. Its two ships – Ambience and Ambition – depart from eight regional ports (London Tilbury, Newcastle, Dundee, Edinburgh Leith, Liverpool, Belfast, Bristol, and Falmouth), sailing to more than 60 countries around the world.
