The new GoCruise & Travel shop is owned and operated by franchisees Karen and Mark Stanley in Manningtree, Essex.
What Our Franchisees Say
The business model suited my long-term ambitions, and having your own postcodes where you can market yourself was a real selling point. I could see gaps in the market, so we took the big decision to relocate to Cornwall from Hertfordshire.
An amazing opportunity to get into the travel sector with a well established brand, very supportive Head Office team plus the global power of the Fred Olsen family behind us.
I enjoy the no pressure approach from the partners back in HQ, which enables me to mix the opportunity to own and run a cruise focused travel agency, alongside my own desire to travel regularly and see our cruise partners ships first hand.
