Our official name is "1987 The Travel Group Ltd." The original agency was called TFC Tours, which specialized in travel to southern Africa. This was a multi-national company founded in the 1970s, with branches in Johannesburg, London, and Vancouver. We purchased the Vancouver office in 1987 and changed the name to The Travel Group.
Tours start from about $250 AUD
Franz Josef Glacier provides some of the most stunning ‘ice architecture’ of any Glacier in the world. The Glacier was in a state of advance until 2008 when it started retreating. Following a spectacular collapse of the terminal face in 2012, it is now only accessible by helicopter.
