WILDERNESS TRAVEL OFFERS BIG DISCOUNTS ON ADVENTURES IN EUROPE

TRAVELFLASH—U.S. DOLLAR IN DRAMATIC REBOUND AGAINST EURO—ACT NOW TO LOCK IN SAVINGS!

Recent weeks have seen a dramatic increase in the value of the US dollar against the Euro, and Wilderness Travel is passing the savings along to you. Who knows what wil happen with currency values, but if you act now, you can lock in the current favorable rates for a very big discount off our previously published prices—as much as $400 to $700 per person, depending on the trip. This is a limited time offer as the dollar may not maintain this strength for long.

When you sign up on a Europe trip (as well as several non-Europe trips that we pay in Euros), Wilderness Travel will purchase the Euros for your trip the day you book, thus locking in the currency rate for you—and guaranteeing your savings. For trips booked this way, the first deposit ($500) is non-refundable.

Frequent Wilderness Travelers note: you can combine this discount with your usual Toucan Discount for even more savings.

To find out how much you’ll save call 1-800-368-2794, or email info@wildernesstravel.com.
