Insight Vacations, the award-winning global leader in premium escorted journeys is excited to get guests up close and personal with the launch of their new 2020 Europe and Britain collection with over 100 magical journeys including five brand new trips.
Also, new for 2020 is Insight Choice, where guests can choose their own adventures. On the majority of this year’s European guided journeys, Insight’s Travel Directors will offer clients the choice of two included experiences. Guests can choose experiences reflecting their varied interests from art, fashion, food, local traditions and nature excursions. In addition, they will enjoy new Insight Experiences, including a visit to the Cristina Heeren Foundation in Seville, a private flamenco school and beneficiary of a TreadRight Foundation grant which provides scholarships to deserving students. This support will help ensure that the flamenco tradition lives on in the local community and continues to create opportunities for generations to come. Clients will participate in a private dance class and be given front row seats to watch a fiery flamenco performance.
Due to popular demand, the Ancient Civilisations collection is back, featuring 18 trips to 9 countries. Guests are invited to explore some of the world’s most ancient civilisations in the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa and the India subcontinent.
“As the Europe Specialists, we have further enhanced the art of travelling in style. With our commitment to greater personalisation, our guests can choose their Insight Choice experiences to suit their interests and select their preferred restaurants on Dine-Around evenings for more intimate settings with smaller groups of companions,” commented Alex O’Connor, Managing Director. “Clients can also let our Travel Directors know their travel preferences in advance with our innovative MyInsight online holiday hub.”
