Trusted Adventures Reports Large Gains in Jan-Apr Inquiries/Bookings
An alliance of award-winning travel firms, announces a rosy outlook for 2010 summer travel. Growth in family travel and appeal of national parks two of the main reasons cited.
COEUR D'ALENE, ID, June 05, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Trusted Adventures, an alliance of eight award-winning, owner-operator active travel companies, reports its members are experiencing 25 to 100 percent upticks in inquiries and bookings over the same period (Jan-Apr) in 2009.
Brad Moss, executive director of the active travel consortium Trusted Adventures (http://www.trustedadventures.com) with over 400 tour itineraries embracing the entire globe, attributes this positive movement to, among others, bucking the digital trend and producing enhanced and expanded print catalogs; freezing or lowering European trip rates in anticipation of a strengthening dollar; expanding destinations and offerings and shifting to more environmentally sensitive tourism that offers meaningful cultural connections.
"Increased interest in national park adventures, family travel and custom-designed itineraries has also fueled the growth we are seeing," he said. "Europe, Alaska, the Galapagos and the American West are a few of the top destinations in most demand." In some instances higher-priced journeys are also on the upswing.
