Message from the Owner:
I would first like to take the opportunity to thank all clients old, and
new for helping Collins Tours
achieve our goals of once again
being the #1 Tour Operator. Collins Tours and Consulting is a family owned business that has been in
operation for 55 years. As a second generation travel professional,
I have had the opportunity to travel
around the world, and through these experiences I feel Collins Tours has
been able to showcase our clients many memorable destinations and historical landmarks. Every tours itinerary is tweaked and modified to ensure
that our travelers receive the most value for their destination dollars.
Through the support of our valued clients, Collins Tours has found annual
top selling favorites including New York Tours, Newfoundland, ‘No fly’
cruise tours, concert tours, sporting events, European destinations and
more! Our team at Collins Tours works hard to ensure all tours are above
and beyond customers expectations. With such success, the company has
grown to offer larger travel opportunities including Australia and New
Zealand, the Panama Canal in 2016, and many others.
Our team at Collins invites you to contact us at any time when you have a
vacation request, bucket list destination or if you would like to come along
on a professionally guided tour. This brochure is an over view of what we
have planned for the upcoming year for more details and new releases you
