East TexasGroup Tour Manual Tourists by the Busloads! 25th East Texas Group Tour Manual, Texas' Premier Group Travel Planner ETTA has published the East Texas Group Tour Manual since 1982. The Tour Manual helps promote member supported FAM tours as well as subsequent tours the operators may sell. The manual contains basic information, itineraries and a calendar of events. 3,000 Group Tour Manuals are mailed to tour operators in 50 states and Canada. The Association may host two groups of tour operators each year in February with sufficient support from ETTA members. ETTA produces the FAM tours by obtaining motorcoaches and soliciting participation from qualified tour operators. These tour operators sell bus tour packages to groups. They represent banks, AARP, church groups, American Bus Association (ABA), National Tour Association (NTA), plus private companies and others. Our tours for operators are known as FAM (familiarization) tours, giving the operators the opportunity to familiarize themselves with what East Texas has to offer. The operators come to "see what they can sell." Through our membership in BankTravel and American Bus Association, we provide hundreds of active leads to help you tap into the fun potential of the group tour market. ETTA may also hold marketplaces where chamber, convention, tourist bureau, lodging, dining and attraction hosts can visit with tour operators face-to-face. ![]() 2008 Group Tour Manual Display Ad Rates Includes DISPLAY AD on web site www.easttexasgrouptours.com
