European Tour Operators Association

The European Tour Operators Association (ETOA) has a rapidly growing membership of over 400 companies. The association is here to represent the interests of European Tour Operators, their clients and their suppliers with one voice.

Members range from large operators, hotel groups and well known attractions through to smaller specialists and individual accommodation providers, many of whom have been with ETOA for many years.

As the association is independent and funded entirely by memberships we concentrate on signing up companies and growing attendance to our events.

  • We are the Europe-wide trade body for operators both traditional and online in the FIT and escorted group tours sectors.
  • Our strengths are particularly in supporting leisure tourism to European cities (rather than the traditional Mediterranean resorts).
  • ETOA focuses on representing operators and their suppliers at a European level, pro-actively bringing together the industry’s voice with regard to direct and indirect taxation, escorted tour management and packaging directives and  legislation on visas.
  • 20 years experience of running business to business contracting events which attract the key contractors, sales professionals and heads of industry.
  • Reduced cost exhibition opportunities at WTM on the ETOA stand and further exhibitions such as City Break.
Cloud Red Travel provides ETOA with sales support and have produced new members such as the Helsinki Tourist Board.
