ETOA was founded in 1989 by a group of tour operators who wanted
representation in Europe. After 20 years ETOA still remains the only trade association offering
European level representation for the interests of inbound and
intra-European tour operators,
wholesalers and their European suppliers.
Today, ETOA is the voice of European Inbound Travel, with over
450 Members.
The ETOA Secretariat
is responsible for the day-to-day running of the association, and has its
office in London, UK.
Additionally, members have the opportunity to get involved by joining one of
the various ETOA
committees.
