Why TumlareFor many years Tumlare has been providing high quality programs with a personal touch. We have grown to be a major European tour-operator with an extended network throughout Europe. Through four decades Tumlare has worked with some of the most prestigious clients in the world and through consistent performance has established many long term relationships with our business partners.
Working in HarmonyOur industry partners, value and ethical practicesOur name “Tumlare” is also a species of dolphin living in
the Scandinavian waters and is represented as a symbol of
harmony and partnership in our logo.
We believe in the harmony of close partnership.
Loyalty and reliability are key elements in a partnership, and
combined with the ability to adapt to different environments
and strong local presences these are the cornerstones of
our company philosophy.
Our greatest success is the commitment of our company
to become partners with our clients, not for the short term,
but for years to come. Growing to be partners is a close
cooperation to the mutual benefit of both companies.
We have always believed the mutual success comes from
putting our client’s interest first. Our track record of repeat
clients is testimony that it is a philosophy that is successful.
Tumlare working towards a better environmentPreservation of the environment is a new focus for Tumlare.
As a worldwide corporation we feel a responsibility and
are “getting involved”. For the future we will be developing
product in conjunction with local communities and reviewing
our business practices to help protect the many tourist sites
that are becoming increasingly threatened.

“We have worked alongside the “Tumlare” Corporation for over 10 years throughout Europe. For experience, professionalism and enthusiasm they are second to none, and it is my belief they are market leaders in the field of Sports. The Champions League final held in Moscow this year between Manchester United and Chelsea was a demanding project for all involved. Tumlare yet again embraced the project and excelled in all areas.” Jonathan Greaves Tours Manager Manchester United Travel
“I want to thank each of you and all of your staff for helping us to make the Arctic Expedition for Climate Action such an overwhelming success!
I know we asked a lot of you, and sometimes even unreasonably. But in the end you all helped us deliver an extraordinary experience that has inspired a very powerful group of people to act urgently vis-à-vis one of the most important and complex issues that we all face: global climate change.
This would not have been possible had Tumlare not provided such extraordinary service. Thank you very, very much.”

Tumlare LogisticsTechnical visitsWith a wide network of local offices and a team of professional staff, Tumlare has, for many years, operated technical visits within a broad range of fields. From visiting with pensioner homes to a local kindergarten, we have now transitioned into areas of science parks, high tech windmill producers, salmon farms etc.
Our local staff are invaluable when matching local experts with guests from abroad, putting special study programmes together, meeting the needs of both parties.
The increasing number of tours, with demand for more and more specialist fields over the past years, has enabled us to create a network of unique contacts that gives us the advantage of providing professional communication and professional operations.
Working inHarmonyHarmonyHarmony
Special interestOur team of local experts live and work in destinations we offer. They have invaluable knowledge on designing and planning these programmes for you. Further, they have the local contacts to make sure the programmes meet your criteria.
Our knowledge is available to you whether it’s gaining entrance for your group to an art gallery or a concert performance, or perhaps dinner at a local farm in Norway.
Many organisations will send their own lecturer or tour leader to accompany the group. This will sometimes be an art historian or an archaeologist. Tumlare will work with the tour leader to ensure all arrangements are taken care of in advance - all accommodation, transportation, entrances and tickets if required, so that the tour leader has only one thing to think
about - tour leading.
SportFor many years Tumlare has handled all of the arrangements for some of the biggest sporting names in the world.
Tumlare Sport specialises in the detailed and precise arrangements required by sporting teams travelling to games, tournaments, and training camps.
We have handled many major football teams playing across Europe in the pan European tournaments, taking care of all arrangements for the teams, fans, sponsors and press with individual programmes and hotels to suit each.
Tumlare Sport will ensure that the team hotels are adequately briefed on training requirements; special meals, private rooms with special check-in and check-out arrangements, and that those hotels are equipped with the necessary fitness and leisure facilities.
