With travellers seeing the end in sight in terms of when they will be fully vaccinated and able to travel, G Adventures is offering the opportunity to book a selection of long-awaited milestone trips and bucket list adventures at up to 20 per cent off the original price, with a huge selection of tours worldwide also discounted by 15 per cent during the month of June.
Once-in-a-lifetime experiences with a 20 per cent discount include sailing the azure waters of the Greek Islands, trying a hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia in Turkey, cruising by floating markets on the Mekong in a riverboat, and hiking through the jungle to Colombia's Lost City.
In total, more than 300 trips worldwide are discounted by either 20 per cent (including all Sailing adventures) or 15 per cent, when booked by June 30, 2021 and departing before June 30, 2022. All bookings also benefit from G Adventures' 'Book With Confidence' policy which enables travellers to change their tour dates free-of-charge up to 30 days before the trip departs.
David Green, VP commercial, G Adventures, says now is the ideal time to book, while deals are better than ever and travellers can secure the destinations and dates they desire.
"We're officially starting to see the return of travel with demand for travel later this year and throughout 2022. In recent weeks, thanks to a surge in vaccinations, people know the window of time when they will be fully vaccinated and they are ready to book. Our June sale is one more reason for people to 'book now for travel later' with these amazing deals. We are getting to a point where demand could outstrip supply, and with such incredible discounts on a huge range of trips across all our travel styles around the world, there really never has been a better time to book that dream trip.
"As soon as the Canadian borders reopen and the hotel quarantine is relaxed, we are ready to take travellers. In April we celebrated running our 100th trip since departures restarted in September 2020. This month we will be running close to 70 tours and in July we will be running more than 160 tours. With the combination of increased vaccinations, falling COVID cases, and increase in demand we are at a tipping point now where the number of tours will only increase as the world opens up again.
"When travellers are ready, we are ready, and our agency partners can be confident in the knowledge that we are already up and running and excited to host their clients when they are ready to travel again," says Green.
