Collette is celebrating its strongest year ever in Canada, reporting record performance in 2025 as demand for guided travel experiences continued to climb.

The milestone marks a high point for the company’s Canadian business, driven by growing interest in immersive cultural experiences, a resurgence in European travel and a preference among travellers for the structure and support of dedicated tour managers.

Collette says these trends contributed to increased bookings and high levels of traveller satisfaction throughout the year.

“We saw positive momentum in Canada throughout 2025,” said Christian Leibl-Cote, Executive Vice President of Global Sales at Collette. “Travellers are looking for meaningful and immersive experiences and our team’s dedication to designing tours that truly deliver on that promise helped make this a standout year. As a Canadian traveller myself, I am excited about the growth ahead and the incredible selection of tours for travellers.”

Looking ahead to 2026 and beyond, Collette plans to build on the momentum by expanding departures on its most popular itineraries and broadening its guided touring portfolio with itineraries shaped by real traveller interests.
