Here’s How we’ll work together

Working with Thomson is simple and flexible – you choose how much support you want from us.


Option 1: Leave the details to us! We handle all guest communication while cc’ing you on every step, keeping you informed and removing the heavy lifting, so our experts manage all the details. 


Option 2: We stay behind the scenes. We provide you with all the information and support you need while communicating only with you, ensuring there’s no direct contact between Thomson and your guests.


Option 3: What works for you? We’re happy to work in whichever way suits you best – give Andrew or one of our specialists a call to discuss your and your guests’ needs.  


Travel advisors receive a commission on any new guests they bring to us, paid at the time of travel. 


What’s Commissionable: 
The standard trip cost (typically $5,000–$9,000 per person), which makes commissions add up quickly. 

Not Commissionable: 

  • Flights
  • Trip extensions
  • Single supplements
  • Tanzania Value Added Tax
  • Add-ons outside the core package


We will need your IATA number and agency information at the time of booking. For more information on commission levels, please contact us.
