Tour operator AC Group has announced a partnership with fellow UK company Great Little Breaks, to offer fully serviced touring and holiday experiences across the UK, Ireland, and France.
This collaboration combines AC Group’s expertise in curated itineraries, transfers, and immersive experiences with Great Little Breaks’ trusted short break and event-led packages.

These enhancements provide fresh product options for agents and travel trade partners.
Diana Evans, Managing Director of Great Little Breaks, said: “We’re delighted to announce our partnership with AC Group, which represents a significant step forward in the evolution of Great Little Breaks. By combining our expertise in short breaks with AC Group’ fully serviced itineraries, transfers, and extensive portfolio of experiences, we can now offer customers a more curated and seamless holiday experience.
