Challenge Family has announced a multi-year partnership with triathlon tour company, Tri Travel. The new tie-up will provide travel support for athletes taking on Challenge Family races around the world.
In addition to an existing long-standing partnership with DATEV Challenge Roth powered by hep, Tri Travel will initially run hosted tours to four further Challenge Family events. These are:
- Challenge Family’s flagship event, The Championship in Slovakia;
- ‘The world’s oldest triathlon outside of Hawaii’, Challenge Almere-Amsterdam in the Netherlands;
- ‘Asia’s largest long distance triathlon’, Challenge Taiwan; and
- Challenge Peguera-Mallorca in Spain.
“Tri Travel has run successful hosted tours to DATEV Challenge Roth over many years and shares the same commitment to superior athlete experience,” said Jort Vlam, CEO at Challenge Family.
“With the world now opening up again, we’re delighted to extend the partnership to include more key Challenge Family events around the world. This partnership is about ensuring our athletes and their families have the most positive race experience possible, from the minute they leave home to when they return and everything in between.”
Shane Smith, General Manager Tri Travel and Challenge Roth Tours, said “The team at Tri Travel and our world-wide partner agents have been instrumental in helping the Challenge Roth Tour become such a success. We look forward to expanding our tours further with Challenge Family.
“Together we have a long-term plan to build these experiences, so athletes are well supported, and, collectively with the race organizers [we shall] provide an incomparable service. Challenge and Tri Travel have worked side-by-side to help athletes from all corners of the world for over 15 years and we look forward to expanding further.”
In addition to full-service tours, which include travel, accommodation, bike transfers, event entry, course familiarisation and a partner programme for family and friends, Tri Travel will also provide travel support to athletes wanting to travel to any of Challenge Family’s 30+ events using its global network of travel professionals.
