Why partner with VIT

What we propose

Yes, we work on commission, like every trade partner. The difference is where the demand comes from: we don't intercept guests who were already coming to you — we create new ones, by choosing and recommending your hotel inside our itineraries.

I

We choose the hotels — and guide the choice

Our travellers don't arrive asking for a specific property: they ask for a journey. Every year we design around 8,000 itineraries, with a 25% conversion into confirmed trips — and our destination specialists select the hotels inside each one, guiding the customer's choice. When your hotel is our recommendation, every booking is demand we created for you.

II

We don't compete in your arena

VIT does not distribute your hotel through tour operators, wholesalers or online travel agencies, and we don't bid against your direct channel. The only exception is Tales Collection, reserved for Tales hotel partners. Your rates and your brand stay under your control.

III

Simple contract, connected distribution

We propose a straightforward partnership contract. Connection through your channel manager is our preferred distribution model; where a channel connection isn't possible, we work with FIT rates. We book rooms only once the itinerary is confirmed — no speculative holds, no book-and-cancel. See connected channels ↓

IV

Proactive promotion

Your property gains visibility through our newsletters to 13,000 travel advisors, one-to-one presentations, webinars, hosted fam trips, and features in Tales Collection and Chefs & Travels.
