Travelsphere appoints broadcaster Penny Smith as brand ambassador

Broadcaster and travel writer Penny Smith has been named as brand ambassador for escorted tours specialist Travelsphere.

The former GMTV breakfast show presenter now hosts a Saturday morning show on TalkRADIO, can be heard regularly on BBC Radio 2 and covers travel for various publications.

She said: “The itineraries, destinations, tour managers and guides are why Travelsphere stands out. Not only do they take you to places you might not normally see on an excursion, they tell you where to explore in your free time and where the locals eat and drink.

“Museums are obviously great but for me its markets and tea shops, public gardens and impromptu vistas that I enjoy.”

Managing director Alastair Campbell said: “It is fantastic to welcome Penny as our travel ambassador for Travelsphere.

“Our holidays are all about exploring new lands and living the dream while enjoying sharing your stories with others, which is exactly what Penny does when inspiring her listeners and viewers with tales of her adventures.

“Penny will really help us to dispel many myths about escorted touring and show that it is the smart way to travel. On our tours everything is taken care of but you still have the freedom to explore independently.”
