IFTM: three days to reconnect and prepare for 2027

A few weeks ahead of IFTM Top Resa, Jans Tours is gearing up to reconnect with its partners and tourism professionals for three days of meetings and exchanges.

For the receptive side, the trade show provides a privileged moment to take time to discuss upcoming projects, present new offerings, and share the latest inspirations from local teams.

As journeys for 2027 are already being planned, traveler expectations are evolving too: more personalization, new experiences, itineraries that depart from the classics, lesser-known addresses, and programs tailored to specific clienteles — topics that can be discussed directly with Jans Tours teams.

The objective is simple: to engage with professionals, understand their needs and collaboratively build the upcoming journeys for their clients.


Four destinations, four ways of traveling

This year, Jans Tours arrives at IFTM with four destinations to present to industry professionals: Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Switzerland.

Four distinct realms, but a single approach: a strong local presence and teams that know their destinations from the inside out.

Indonesia remains at the heart of Jans Tours’ DNA. Bali, Java, Lombok, Sumatra, Komodo—these regions enable the creation of very diverse journeys, from a first-time visit to Indonesia to more hidden itineraries and tailored experiences.

In the Philippines, the team also guides professionals in building programs that blend islands, beaches, nature, encounters, and local experiences. A destination still full of opportunities to move beyond the most classical itineraries.

Malaysia continues to grow within the group. With its office in Kuala Lumpur, Jans Tours can rely on a locally based team to design programs aligned with travelers’ expectations and the needs of professionals.

And then, there is Switzerland.


A new destination joins the Jans Tours family

It’s one of the major novelties of this 2026 edition: Jans Tours expands its playing field with the opening of its office in Switzerland.

After Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia, this new presence marks another milestone in the group’s development.

Jans Tours Switzerland is now fully operational on the ground and completes Jans Tours’ international network.

The destination opens up new possibilities for professionals: individual trips, group departures, incentives, premium stays, or tailor-made itineraries can be crafted around Switzerland’s diverse landscapes and experiences.

From the Alps to the lakes, cities to villages, gastronomy to scenic railway experiences, Switzerland offers a particularly rich playground for designing bespoke programs.

And above all, as with its Asian destinations, Jans Tours relies on local knowledge and close relationships with professionals.

So, even if the Jans Tours stand is located in the Asia space, Swiss projects are, of course, welcome!

An international team gathered in Paris

For this edition of IFTM, several Jans Tours team members will travel to Paris.

Anthony, Audrey, Eva and Lucie from the France office will be on hand to welcome professionals and discuss their projects.

Also present will be Geoffrey, Rudi and Benjamin, directly from the Indonesia office, as well as Sylvain, representing the Malaysia office.

An international team that will allow visitors to meet both their usual contacts in France and the teams based directly at the destinations.

Because this is also Jans Tours’ hallmark: behind every program there are local teams who know the ground realities, partners, new offerings, and experiences truly worth presenting to travelers. There is also a France-based office, with dedicated contacts, enabling French-language exchanges and close, on-site support, without time-zone constraints.

IFTM will thus be an opportunity to (re)put faces to these teams, and to take time to discuss beyond emails and quote requests.


Malaysia featured at a second pavilion

Jans Tours will also be present at the pavilion of the Malaysia Tourism Promotion Board, stand A014.

A complementary presence that will allow professionals to come and discuss the destination, its novelties, and programming possibilities.

Malaysia indeed offers numerous options for building journeys that combine major highlights with more intimate experiences. With its local team based in Kuala Lumpur, Jans Tours continues developing this destination with agencies and tour operators.

Professionals will therefore be able to find Jans Tours at two different spots in the show, depending on their needs and projects.

Jans Tours Switzerland: A New Milestone in the Group’s History

Dream Yacht



Jans Tours Switzerland launched its first operations this year, with carefully crafted products, committed local partners, and a field team that brings the destination to life on a daily basis.

A step that naturally fits into the group’s evolution and that it was time to present more officially to our partners in the Francophone market.


A natural evolution rather than a strategic shift

At first glance, the link between Southeast Asia and Switzerland may seem surprising. Yet the logic is simple.

Jans Tours has always built its development around the same philosophy: strong destination expertise, teams close to the ground, and the ability to craft tailor-made trips that make sense.

After Indonesia, the Philippines and Malaysia, the group naturally continued its international expansion by opening up new perspectives in Europe. The France commercial office marked an important first step to strengthen ties with Francophone markets. The creation of Jans Tours Switzerland is in line with this continuity.

This is not about changing professions, but about widening the playing field.


Switzerland, a destination that ticks all the boxes today

If Switzerland today asserts itself as a new destination for Jans Tours, it is not by chance.

The market is evolving, and so are travelers’ expectations. There is a growing demand for trips that are smoother, more responsible, closer to nature and local experiences. Journeys where the travel itself becomes an experience, where one takes time to discover, to feel, to understand.

And in this regard, Switzerland has a real playbook.

Between its spectacular Alpine landscapes, its lakes, its perfectly preserved villages, and its railway network among the most efficient in the world, the country offers an ideal playground to build varied itineraries that are attractive and accessible year-round.

It is also a destination that speaks to several client typologies: FITs, groups, incentives, or premium trips.

A destination built closest to the ground

Since its launch, Jans Tours Switzerland has relied on an approach built from direct contact with the destination, nourished by in-depth and practical knowledge of the terrain.

The country lends itself particularly well to varied itineraries, thanks to the complementarity of its regions. Lucerne and Central Switzerland offer immediate access to the Alps and the country’s classics, between sparkling lakes and accessible mountains. The Bernese Oberland remains one of Switzerland’s most spectacular playgrounds, perfect for nature experiences and endless alpine panoramas. Farther south, Valais and Zermatt embody iconic Switzerland, with the presence of the Matterhorn, the country’s emblematic mountain, and a decidedly premium atmosphere. Graubünden and the Engadin entice with their more pristine landscapes and exceptional rail experiences, while the Geneva region and Lake Geneva combine urban elegance, terraced vineyards, and open views of the Alps.

The goal is not to offer a fixed package, but to build a flexible, inspiring, and customizable base that can adapt to the expectations and specific needs of each market and each client.

Today, it is mainly the experiences that give the destination its full personality.


Experiences that invite you to travel differently

In Switzerland, travel is part of the journey itself.

The panoramic trains are the best example. They are not mere transfers, but genuine experiences.

This is notably the case with the Bernina Express Pullman Class, where travelers board historic cars inspired by the 1930s to traverse some of the most beautiful UNESCO-listed Alpine landscapes.

On board, the pace slows. The scenery scrolls by. And the journey takes on a different dimension, almost timeless.

Another novelty in central Switzerland: the TITLIS Tower, with its Horizon Deck at the summit, offering a new panoramic experience in the heart of the Alps, at over 3,000 meters above sea level.

To these are added gastronomic experiences, regional festivals, and a particularly high-quality hotel offering, enabling the construction of very differentiating programs.

A clear commitment to sustainable tourism


One logic: connecting destinations and partners

With Jans Tours Switzerland, the group takes a new step in its development, without changing what defines its identity.

The ADN remains the same: strong destination expertise, solid local presence, and a constant commitment to supporting travel professionals in creating tailor-made programs.

And above all, a clear continuity between all destinations in the group.

From Indonesia to the Philippines, from Malaysia to Switzerland, our teams remain available to assist travel agencies and tour operators in their projects, delivering the same rigor, the same responsiveness, and the same on-the-ground passion.

Because ultimately, it doesn’t matter the destination: what matters is the experience we build together.
