winter vacations : 2006/07 Winter European programs

Insight Vacations has announced that its Winter European program is selling fast with bookings for 2006/07 up almost 30 per cent in its first few weeks. With a fantastic mix of warm and wintery destinations and a selection of styles of travel, Insight has cornered the market in premium escorted winter vacations.

Lorraine Sharp, managing director, Insight Vacations said, “Overall our business is even stronger than last year, and we are predicting this growth to continue. Traditionally, as customers try to organize their Christmas holiday plans at the last minute, bookings are made much closer to departure. It is important for agents to get in quick before tours are completely sold out.

“While all tours are performing well, our most popular tour this year has been the Winter Explorer, which shows how interested Australian travellers are in seeing all their favourite places like Venice, Florence, Paris and Amsterdam in the quieter winter season”.

“Interestingly, the surprise hit for this season has been Vienna, Prague and Budapest tour. We are finding there is a lot of interest in these central European countries with the adventurous Aussie travellers, particularly those on their second or third trip to Europe and I think we will continue to see excellent growth in this emerging region.

“Italy is of course one of the most popular countries to visit over winter. It’s relatively mild climate and relaxed culture keeps wooing Australian travellers time and again. In response to clients wanting to explore Italy more thoroughly, we offer a Southern Italy and Sicily tour, an Amazing Italy (which takes in Rome and Florence and Venice) along with an Easy Pace Italy style tour, which allows travellers wanting a flexible itinerary to relax and enjoy Italy however they want.

“Egypt has shown no sign of wavering this season, with travellers as keen as ever to discover the ancient world. With five different tours, Insight remains one of the largest operators to carry Australians visiting Egypt”.

Insight launched its 2006/07 program on the back of a successful 2006 European summer travel season. It’s Insight’s winning combination of quality, impeccable service, perfectly planned itineraries, and reputation as a premium quality tour operator has ensured it has continued to set itself apart in the market.

Throughout its history, Insight Vacations has built its enviable reputation by offering premium quality, leisurely touring vacations.
