Originally the company began life solely as the official Great North Run travel & accommodation partner. However, over the subsequent years we have firmly established ourselves in the world of event travel, accommodation and logistics as a niche event travel company. Providing specialist travel and accommodation packages to sporting and leisure events worldwide, the personal approach by a team of sports-minded enthusiasts ensures each and every event package is geared towards the needs of both event participants and spectators.
As part of our ongoing collaboration with British Triathlon, we provide travel solutions which enable athletes and spectators to concentrate on their event preparation. Such services include ATOL-protected flight bookings, airport transfers, accommodation, bike transportation, event transfers and experienced ground support. We very much see ourselves as an extension to the GB teams and thrive on assisting with all facets of event travel.
To try and combat the rising accommodation rates in the North East during the Great North Run, we chartered the DFDS ferry to act as a floating hotel. Over 1,600 runners and spectators were accommodated over the event weekend, and were given access to Runners World running clinics and motivational talk-ins.
Through our Official IRONMAN status, we provide a range of athlete-friendly travel & accommodation solutions to thousands of participants and spectators from around the world, making those crucial arrangements to take the stress away from their IRONMAN trip. Our aim is, and always has been, to allow complete focus on training in the lead-up to the event and, once they have arrived, full enjoyment of their event experience.
Following our extensive involvement with the Great Run mass participants, and the expertise we had gained since 1999; we were proud to be asked to manage the Great Run/Swim Series Elite athletes' travel requirements (including the likes of Mo Farah, Jo Pavey, Kerry-Anne Payne, David Weir and Jessica Ennis-Hill).
For the inaugural Great Manchester City Games, we were trusted with the travel & accommodation requirements for Usain Bolt and his management team.
We embarked on delivering cost-effective ski packages to local school children, which culminated in sending large groups from Whitley Bay High School to Meribel, and Cramlington Learning Village to Tignes. The feedback we received was overwhelming, which was echoed by the teachers (who even had time for some apres ski!).
Our reputation and competence as a provider of travel and accommodation services was identified by the European Triathlon Union as an important component in providing a permanent and continuing layer of professionalism to the accommodation and travel arrangements for ETU Championship events.
Responsible for the inbound travel and accommodation arrangements for approximately 4,000 athletes and spectators from around the world, our operation covered five airports, three train stations and multiple accommodation sites in and around London. As well as travel and accommodation services, we also provided conference facilities and logistical services for the organisers of the event on a large scale.
As a North East-based company, we were extremely proud to see the millionth finisher cross the Great North Run finish line. As part of the celebrations, we marked the occasion by offering visitors the chance to join in the festivities with a range of exclusive travel packages, which included VIP access to many of the special events that took place over the weekend, as well as a taste of some of the region's best-loved attractions.
In 2015, the market leaders in European triathlon travel & logistics and the leading specialists in European overland bike transportation came together to provide the very best overland bike transportation service around! Working in collaboration, Ship My Tri Bike by Nirvana Europe transports your bike - fully assembled - from anywhere in the UK and Ireland, removing the stress and hassle of disassembling and reassembling your bike before and after an event.
Tasked with providing a consistent standard of cost-effective travel, accommodation and logistical management services for Colleges around the UK, as well as event organisation staff/members, we were immensely proud to be part of the AoC Sport National Championships in our home city of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Through our Official XTERRA status, our primary aim is to enhance the experience of all XTERRA competitors and spectators by combining our vast triathlon-related travel knowledge with the personal approach that matters.
Responsible for the supply of flights and transfers for supporters travelling to Champions League fixtures abroad, we are proud to be the Official Celtic FC Travel Partner.
