The largest wholesaler of accommodation in UK for Maldives and the Indian Ocean, operating for over 20 years with unrivalled knowledge of the destinations. We offer highly competitive rates, a large bank of allocations and a highly efficient service. We have an online booking system for instant confirmations and invoices.

Hummingbird Travel is a wholesaler and ground handler for the Indian Ocean, specialising in the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Mauritius & Seychelles.

Rates

Our main focus is in negotiating the most competitive rates for our clients and making the destinations as easy and accessible as possible. 

Due to long standing relationships with hoteliers and a large volume of business, Hummingbird is able to negotiate the cheapest rates; normally a brokers rate which is lower than a tour operator rate. Meaning you will have the best rates in the business without having to do any contracting and without any previous track record. 

Services

As well as rates, Hummingbird can supply clients with all the information and sales tools they need in order to sell the destinations with confidence. Clients will have access to our online booking system and extensive allocation and there is the unique advantage of an office in the UK, Maldives & Sri Lanka. 

Hummingbird gives clients the tools to sell the Indian Ocean without getting up from their desks.

Hummingbird representatives will meet & greet guests and are on hand 24 hours a day to deal with queries and problems. We regularly train staff on all destinations and frequently organise educational visits that can be tailored to a client’s needs. 

Hummingbird offers a hassle free and competitive way into otherwise complex markets. We are the largest UK wholesaler for the Maldives, currently achieving over 40,000 bed nights a year and this buying power gives us the leverage to get the best rates and availability in the market. 

Sri Lankan tours avoid the obvious and focus on the original, boutique & unique. Tourism is growing at a huge rate and we are keeping pace whether it is eco/spa retreats, golf villas, luxury safari camping or a traditional tour. 

In Mauritius we have targeted resorts that are traditionally hard to contract with, giving clients a broader range of resorts at the most competitive prices. We also offer a range of excursions and activities to suit all holidaymakers. At all the destinations we offer, our London office gives us a unique advantage as a DMC for the Indian Ocean.

Onsite Management

The company directors spend time manning the destination offices and researching new products. All properties and boats recommended by Hummingbird are well known to them personally and have been inspected recently. Experienced local managers and uniformed airport representatives man Hummingbird destination offices.

Luxury Service & Fast Track

Hummingbird has opened a VIP department where staff are experienced at dealing with private jet or first class arrivals and handling any last minute VIP requests. Hummingbird has created an exclusive Fast Track system where Hummingbird VIP reps will meet the clients off the plane and take them directly to the VIP lounge, bypassing passport control and baggage reclaim which the reps will handle on their behalf

Our Vision

Our Scope

Hummingbird’s planning and investment are centred around becoming a technology based company while continuing to offer a highly personalised service to our clients. The online system gives clients real time availability and the best rates, special offers and allocations for instant confirmations and invoices. Integration (such as XML) is an essential part of our vision for those operators with the capability.

Our Future

We are working with the hotels to link with their systems, this means any rates or offers will arrive instantly into your system giving a time advantage in the market and ensuring the system is always up to date.
