Tour Operator
Transun is an independent, specialist tour operator. We operate travel experiences to interesting destinations all over the world, but especially in northern Europe. We’re based in offices in Oxford, although we’ve also had premises in London and in the North of England in recent years.
We’ve been in the travel business for nearly thirty five years – and not many companies can say that. We’ve operated to a wide range of destinations in that time and have built up heaps of experience at designing and delivering specialist holidays for our loyal clients from all over the UK. We aim to give you the best service possible, from your first enquiry through to your time on holiday.
The main focus of our current programmes is the Arctic region of Scandinavia where you can visit Santa in Lapland or witness the spectacular northern lights inside the arctic circle in northernmost Finland and Sweden. These regions also play host to a range of other experiences including husky safaris, snowmobile expeditions, traditional excursions by reindeer sleigh and nights in an igloo. Throughout our history our guests have travelled with us to a range of destinations across Europe and we have long had a reputation for quality holidays in Croatia. We have also operated long haul programmes to Thailand and the Far East and to the Seychelles. We’ll advertise new and returning destinations on this website as they become available.
