Trips start at just $1,695 per person
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14, 2009 — United Travel Group blasts the myth that an Africa vacation is only for the rich with their Guilt-Free Getaways, a collection of short getaways to East and Southern Africa that start as low as $1,695 per person, including airfare from New York (departure taxes and fuel surcharges are additional).
"We focus on making safaris affordable," says Jeannie Rodgers, company president. "By putting our buying power to work, we're able to design safaris that don't skimp on amenities but are extremely affordable. The collection features something for everyone: independent travelers can use our Cape Town Breakaway (starting at just $1,695 per person) as a quick relaxing break or the foundation of a longer, pan-African adventure. Honeymooners can venture to the idyllic Indian Ocean island of Mauritius and history buffs will enjoy our Glimpses of Egypt journey which includes a 3-night Nile River cruise. One of the most popular tours is our 9-Day Highlights of Kenya which features Mt. Kenya, Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara — starting at $2,595 per person. There are currently six Guilt-Free Getaways all starting at less than $3,000 per person, including air fare from New York (add-ons are available from other cities). You can find full details on our website at http://www.unitedtravelgroup.com."
United Travel Group's experienced Tour Consultants work with travelers from start to finish, creating a personalized vacation within their budget. UTG's flexibility not only gives travelers the option to mix and match different hotels to splurge in some places and "conserve" in others, but in most cases, tours can be designed to depart on almost any day of the week. And because United Travel Group arranges tours throughout East Africa and Southern Africa, travelers can arrange a full pan-African experience with just one phone call.
Guilt-Free Getaways give back to the community as well. For each passenger who takes a Guilt-Free Getaway, UTG makes a donation to one of several wildlife conservation efforts.
"Our Guilt-Free Getaways are extremely popular. With the built-in flexibility, many travelers extend the tours to other destinations or substitute a favorite lodge. Guilt-Free Getaways allow travelers to indulge in the ultimate vacation – and not break the bank," said Rodgers.
Making travel affordable is the cornerstone of boutique tour operator United Travel Group, who has offered a value-packed safari for less than $3,000 per person each of the last 20 years.
