Value Added Discount of $800 per Couple
Whether walking the trails that line the Cornish coast or climbing terraced stone walls overlooking the Adriatic Sea, Wayfarers walkers will experience four of the world’s most historic landscapes – and deepen their knowledge of these storied settings – on The Wayfarers’ Cornwall’s Creeks, Coves & Coastal Trails; Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast; the Czech Republic’s Vienna to Prague and France’s Historic Dordogne walking tours. This year, in addition to crafting genuinely immersive walking experiences in 15 countries around the world, The Wayfarers introduces thought-provoking reading lists to accompany each of its 39 diverse walks, ensuring Walks are as intellectually stimulating as they are physically challenging. Prices begin at $3795 per person and include all Walks, activities, meals and accommodations; book now and receive an $800 per couple discount.
Life Change: It’s A Buy
What’s transformation worth? With Air New Zealand’s “Travel to NZ and Get Your Life Back” fare, wayfarers will jet Los Angeles to Auckland for only $798 roundtrip that must be booked by April 29. Or you can head to life-altering experiences via the airline’s regular economy roundtrip fare as well: under $900 including taxes and fees. Compared to soaring economy fares of up to $3,000 roundtrip in pre-recession peak season, these airfares will lift both body and soul.
And travel to New Zealand will bring another option on June 10, when Qantas introduces new daily service from New York City to Auckland. Because these flights feature conveniently timed connections in Los Angeles, East Coasters will no longer need to fly via alternate carriers before connecting to Qantas aircraft at LAX.
Once on the ground in New Zealand, exchange rates are compelling with the U.S. dollar packing a punch against the Kiwi dollar (USD$1 = Kiwi$1.71), stretching the purchasing power of American travelers in New Zealand. Plus, hotel and tour deals in abundance make New Zealand a “buy.”
