Tauck Offers Singles Savings

On Selected Itineraries And Departures

Solo Travelers Save Up To $3,000 On 47 Departures

NORWALK, CT (November 7, 2006) Relief is in sight for solo travelers eager to avoid the customary “single supplement” common to cruises and tours, where guest pricing is typically calculated on a double-occupancy model.

For 2007, Tauck World Discovery is offering an assortment of departure dates on selected cruises and tours where the normal “single occupancy” surcharge faced by solo travelers is dramatically reduced, or even waived outright. The special rates will apply to some 47 departures on 16 different cruise and tour itineraries in the U.S., Europe and Canada.

Tauck President/CEO Robin Tauck noted that the savings being offered to solo travelers are substantial. “Tauck guests can save as much as $3,000 off of our standard single pricing, and the average savings is more than $1,200,” said Tauck. Besides offering excellent value, the special singles-friendly departures also alleviate solo travelers’ concerns that they’ll be the only single on a trip. “Our single guests tell us that having other solo travelers along makes their trip far more enjoyable,” said Tauck. “The special pricing virtually guarantees that other single travelers will be on these departures.”

The specially priced trips include six Mediterranean cruises, eight of Tauck’s popular “A Week In…” itineraries in Europe, and two journeys each in the United States and Canada. “Escorted group travel is a great, worry-free way for single travelers to see the world,” added Tauck. “With all of the details handled for you, with an experienced guide on-hand to add real depth and insight to the experience, and with the company of other like-minded travelers, it’s an incredible way to experience any destination.”

Tauck welcomes singles on all of its escorted trips, although the reduced singles pricing is limited to specific itineraries and departure dates. Those interested in more information can click here, or call 1-800/214-5158.
