Reader Offers Ltd, the UK's No. 1 independent cruise retailer, has been announced as the winner of two awards from the explorer voyage specialist, Hurtigruten. The team from Reader Offers Ltd was the proud recipient of the 'Best Performer – Explorer Sales in the UK' award and also the award for the 'Most Inspiring Partner of the year in the UK'. The awards were presented at Hurtigruten's global trade event that took place aboard the newly refurbished MS Kong Harald ship.

As Hurtigruten's number one agent in the UK, Reader Offers markets popular explorer cruise packages with a host of additional benefits, which attracts travellers looking for a holiday with a difference. Hurtigruten calls at over 30 Norwegian ports, as well as Greenland, Spitsbergen and Antarctica, including those more remote locations that are inaccessible to many larger ships. Hurtigruten's 'Ultimate Northern Lights' itinerary has become a firm favourite with travellers who wish to capture a glimpse of the spectacular phenomena, plus its cruises go as far afield as the Amazon rainforest, Antarctica, Africa, Brazil and Iceland. 

Commenting on the awards, Andrew Say, Commercial Director of Reader Offers Ltd said: “To receive the 'Best Performer – Explorer Sales in the UK' and also the 'Most Inspiring Partner of the year in the UK' awards from Hurtigruten really is a marvellous achievement and one that the team should be very proud of.  The explorer cruise market is certainly increasing in popularity as travellers are looking for the combination of an expedition-style holiday, yet with all the comforts on board a quality ship. Working with Hurtigruten, we are able to create some amazing packages that really give travellers the opportunity to venture to memorable destinations.”
