Globus Family Unveils New Winter Getaways

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

The Globus family of brands has expertly designed and unveiled more than 30 “low season” vacations, including two NEW itineraries with Globus and Monograms, offering Americans a plethora of opportunities to travel abroad at unbeatable prices this fall, winter and next spring.

In addition to its already robust selection of holiday tours and cruises and winter vacation packages across Europe, Globus is introducing a NEW, nine-day Christmas in Paris & New Year’s Eve in London itinerary, priced from $1,599. And, capitalizing on America’s interest in Ireland, Monograms is providing travelers a NEW four-day Dublin Getaway, priced from $517.

“Winter is a great time for Americans to make European travel dreams come true,” said Steve Born, vice president of marketing for the Globus family of brands. “They can take a vacation at a reduced price, while avoiding the crowds that converge during the summer travel months.”

From holiday cruises on the Main and Danube rivers to tours across Europe ranging from seven to 29 days as well as 10 independent vacation packages, the Globus family of brands’ “European Winter Vacations” offer unparalleled savings to fit any travel style.

“Not only are we giving travelers a large selection of tours, cruises and independent vacations from which to choose a phenomenal European vacation,” said Born. “We are offering them savings of up to 40 percent on air and 15 percent on land, compared to peak season pricing.”

Even more chances to save are available for those who plan ahead and book early: Travelers can save $200 per couple on Globus family of brands’ 2010/11 European Winter vacations when booking air-inclusive with Alitalia by July 27, 2010.* Sample fares start as low as $415/person.

Prague’s Jewish Heritage – The Important Jewish Sites in Prague’s History
Located between the Old Town Square and the Vltava River, Prague's Jewish Quarter (known as Josefov) was once one of the largest Jewish communities in Europe, with a rich and varied history dating back to the 10th century. The circumstances leading to WW II and the country's post-war Communist regime did little to revive the hopes and religious rights (or indeed living standards) of those who survived, with many deciding to emigrate to the U.S., Western Europe or Israel. Today, with only 1,500 or so Orthodox Jews living in what remains of the traditional Jewish Quarter, it has once again become a thriving – and fascinating - part of Prague. Our local expert will take us on a tour to the Jewish Museum, the Jewish Cemetery and the Synagogues --- an insider’s view of Jewish Life in the past and today.

Jewish Budapest
The success of modern Budapest was due in great part to the diligence and organizational skills of Jewish industrialists and there are still many memories of the period. The Jewish Museum presents the community’s religious traditions, while the Holocaust Centre, which opened in 2004, reminds us of the terror. Starting in 1990, a major renaissance of Jewish culture took place in Budapest. The city has the most populous and active Jewish community in Central Europe. They cherish their religious, artistic and historical heritage. Our local expert will explain the history and take you to visit the largest synagogue in Europe, and the Jewish Museum.
