ID Travel Group has celebrated 40 years of luxury travel excellence and the launch of the new, 2024 Travelers Collection Brochure among hotel partners and top travel advisors at its annual gala event in New York City. In addition to the new brochure, the luxury tour operator also announced a travel advisor commission increase, now up to 17%, in support of the advisor community.
This year’s Travelers Collection is a compilation of the very best hotels in the Island Destinations portfolio, highlighting 130+ ultra-luxe properties in newly added locales such as Greece, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Africa, including an ID Villa portfolio focused on premier villa experiences.
Featured on the front and back covers of the signature piece is South Bank, Turks and Caicos, the newest luxury concept by Grace Bay Resorts which includes a full-service marina community featuring four waterfront locations, amenities and discreet service. The brand was also the winner of this year’s prestigious 2024 President’s Award for Iconic Luxury.
