Exotic Locations Lure Senior Travelers: At Vantage Deluxe World Travel, Africa and Other Exotic Places are in Style

Boston (PRWEB) February 23, 2007 -- Seasoned travelers have been there and done that - Paris, Rome, Tokyo, London. So what's next?

Vantage Deluxe World Travel regularly surveys its guests to determine the destinations and features they would like in a trip. According to Vantage's Executive Vice President David Gevanthor, there is a trend for seniors to travel to exotic destinations.

"The average age of our clientele is 72 and they are very resilient and adventurous," said Gevanthor. "They are interested in exploring exotic locales as long as they know that the accommodations will be deluxe. In the past year alone, our bookings to these locations are up 54 percent."

On such trip is Tunisia: The Mediterranean & the Sahara. The trip includes 12 night accommodations at superior first-class and first-class hotels, including eight nights in sea-view rooms and one night with a view of the Sahara, along with free air fare from Boston or New York, starting at $2,299 per person. Nestled between the Mediterranean and the dunes of the Sahara in North Africa, Tunisia is a melting pot of cultures, and this trip includes several cultural interactions with locals, including a private gathering with nomadic Bedoins and a visit to an attractive home built in a cave. The Vantage package offers a panoramic tour of Tunis and of Carthage, home of the renowned Amphitheatre. The Greek-styled city of Sidi Bousaid and the Roman city of Dougga are also among the destinations. For details on this program, visit http://www.vantagetravel.com/TUN07.

Many tour operators focus on only on safaris when touring South Africa, so Vantage deliberately mixes up the features in its The Best of Africa: Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia & South Africa trip. Guests stay in four- and five-star hotels as well as in authentic safari lodges at the gates of Chobe and Kruger National Parks, resting in comfort and style that hearkens back to the days of the great safaris. The history and natural splendor of southern Africa are on display during Vantage's 17-day journey of Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa. The trip features tours of Capetown and the Cape of Good Hope, a sunset wildlife cruise on the Chobe River, awe-inspiring Victoria Falls, and a visit to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 17 years. Interaction with the Zulu culture plus wildlife safari drives in Chobe and Kruger National Parks are part of the package. Free international airfare from 32 U.S. cities is included with prices starting from $4,699 per person.

For an additional $1,399, guests can extend the visit by four days in spectacular Namibia with its Skeleton Coast and the breathtaking Nambid Dunes, where waves of orange sand billow toward the sky. Two nights in a superior first- class hotel are complemented by two nights in a comfortable desert camp. For details visit http://www.vantagetravel.com/SAF07.
