Our Story
Chan’s World Leisurelink, formerly known as Leisurelink Travel was established as part of Chan Brothers Travel expansion plan to go regional. Setting up in the capital of West Malaysia, our aim is to leverage on the expertise of the team in Chan Brothers Travel to provide good qualities tour itineraries to the consumers in Malaysia. Riding on the collective negotiation purchasing power, we are able to offer value for money tour packages to the consumers in Malaysia with very carefully selected tour programmes.
Founded in 1965, Chan Brothers Travel Pte Ltd has since grown to become one of the largest tour operator and travel agent in the region, strongly recognised as a household name and definitely a Travel Icon. With over 500 staffs in Singapore, Malaysia, Jakarta and Shanghai, we take pride in our consistent efforts to offer our customers with the best value and innovative tour packages that redefines travel. Our reliability and entrepreneurial spirit over the past 47 years have successfully earned us more than 50 prestigious local and international awards.
While we explore new destinations and venture into opening the roads less travelled, we consistently review and revisit existing ones with new itineraries and experiences. By maintaining a strong marketing and communications link with our customers, prospects, business partners and the general buying public, we attain top-of-mind recall as a reliable travel agency providing quality packages at value-for-money prices. For nearly 50 years, we take pride in delighting our customers with tour experiences that get them to return time and again. We were also the first to set up a sophisticated online travel infrastructure and a call centre as part of our continuous efforts to offer seamless travel experiences from the first touch point to utilisation of service.
We extended the Chan Brothers Travel brand with the inception of a no-frill travel company, Asia Global Vacation with the hope to reach out to the price-sensitive and deal-driven consumers. To keep prices low, tour itineraries by Asia Global Vacation are largely packaged with tourist class accommodation and second-line or budget carriers to appeal to price-sensitive consumers looking for good value vacations.
We further launched our first company-owned franchise shop, Chan's World Holidays. Beyond distributing products and services by Chan Brothers Travel, the bespoke travel agency steers away from mass market tours and instead, plugs existing gaps in the current travel market by offering English-speaking package tours to Asia and China and Chinese-speaking package tours to long haul destinations, a rarity indeed among travel agencies these days. Other offerings include unique and seasonal package tours to destinations off the beaten track as well as Muslim tours to worldwide destinations. Aside from these, the travel agency also offers a good selection of 2-to-go package tours to Israel, Turkey, New Zealand, India and other destinations, a definite boon for those who prefer not to wait for a confirmed departure to fly and yet want to reap the cost savings from economies of scale of a package tour.
By catering to all ages and budgets, new and repeat visitors alike, we continue to stride ahead with our reliability, innovation and entrepreneurial spirit at the headquarter Chan Brothers Travel and the rest of the subsidiaries plonk in very strategic locations regionally.
