Cyber Sale - G Adventures’ biggest sale of the year


 

Up to 30 per cent off for travel before May 31, 2022

As the world reopens to international travel, G Adventures is offering up to 30 per cent off on more than 400 itineraries departing before October 31, 2022 with the launch of its biggest 'Cyber Sale' of the year. With the launch of the new sale, the small group adventure operator, and community tourism pioneer, is rewarding hungry travellers who are eager to get back out there with the biggest 30 per cent discounts to help them hit the road as soon as possible now Australian borders are starting to open.

G Adventures' annual Cyber Sale launched on November 11, 2021 and runs through to December 03, 2021. It applies to more than 400 itineraries across the company's selection of 18-to-Thirtysomethings, Active, Classic, Family, Local Living and Marine travel styles.

Tours that are on sale and depart before May 31, 2022 earn travellers a generous discount of up to 30 per cent, with additional departures before October 31, 2022 offering savings of up to 20 per cent off the original price.

Sean Martin, managing director for G Adventures in Australia and New Zealand, says the sale provides an added incentive for travellers at a time when the conditions are just right for booking travel.

"Our most recent consumer research panel* tells us that 39 per cent of respondents plan to take an international holiday by mid-2022, but only 19 per cent have actually booked, so there's still a lot of pent-up demand that is yet to be realised.

"This year's Cyber Sale has some of the biggest discounts we've ever offered, giving people the added incentive they need to secure their international holiday. And with our flexible Book with Confidence policy still in place, which enables travellers to cancel and rebook their tour up to 14-days before departure at no added cost, plus Vaccinated-Only and Travel Ready trip options, travellers can feel confident about their holiday booking and that we have their health and safety top of mind.

"Last month we celebrated operating our 1,000th tour in the past year, and the local communities we support could not be more excited to welcome our travellers back. Everyone booking a G Adventures trip can feel safe in the knowledge that they are helping support local people in communities that have been devastated by the lack of tourism as a result of the pandemic," says Martin.

Departures and options are subject to availability, and travellers are encouraged to take advantage of the deals as soon as they go live to secure their desired trip option and departure date. Sample itineraries in this year's Cyber Sale** include:

 

  • Classic Vietnam: Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City - Travel from vibrant Hanoi, the natural beauty of Halong Bay, the atmospheric imperial capital of Huế, and the charms of Hoi An, to the modern day life of Saigon, and experience the energy of Vietnam in 10 jam-packed days. Save 30 per cent - was $1,549pp now $1,084pp for a 10-day trip from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City. 

  • Walk the Camino de Santiago - On this eight-day trip, complete the last 100 km of the pilgrimage route to Santiago and receive a "compostela" at the finish to prove the accomplishment. Refuel with tasty Spanish food and take the time to stop and smell the flowers — it's active but at a slower, more picturesque pace. Save 30 per cent - was $1,599pp now $1,119pp for an eight-day trip from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela.
