WHO BELIEVE IN BETTER TRAVEL
At Gray Dawes Travel we recognise that we’re not just there to secure the best travel fares, the most innovative itineraries, the slickest online tools or the most experienced consultants. We’re there as an extension of our clients’ own organisations; their out-of-house travel management department.
We achieve this because of the depths we go to in understanding our clients; their culture, their values and their objectives. Only then can we deliver on a higher level, with our trademark emphasis on the personal touch. Only then can we delight with remarkable value, innovation and service.
That’s what we call ‘better’ travel.

OUR HISTORY
We are proud to be one of the leading independent travel management companies in the UK. First established in 1865 by Scottish Entrepreneur Archibald Gray and partner Edwin Sandys Dawes, Gray Dawes was the very first TMC to be awarded an IATA licence in 1927. Still privately owned by the supportive Inchcape family, we continue to be pioneers within the industry almost a century later.
From humble beginnings as a shipping company to managing the first commercial flight from London to Cairo, our journey has continued through the years and we now employ over 200 happy team members. We really do pride ourselves on our history and heritage, are fiercely protective of our family-owned status and actively bring to life the values we hold dear.
PASSION PERSONIFIED
We take pride in doing everything to the best of our ability, with an active and genuine interest in our industry, our customers’ businesses and future.
