Montreal, November 19, 2013 – Transat, one of the largest integrated tourism companies in the world and Canada’s holiday travel leader, is pleased to announce that the 2014-2015 season Europe coach tours are now for sale.
Accompanied by professional guides, vacationers can confidently set off by coach to discover the world’s wonders. They enjoy excellent accommodations, several meals and a range of varied, exciting itineraries. The majority of departures are guaranteed, and vacationers travel in ultra-modern, air-conditioned coaches.
While continuing to offer its popular guided tours, Transat Holidays has added regional tours to its program. These are more intimate, designed to balance sightseeing with experiential activities in a given region. For example, the Albi, Toulouse and Carcassonne tour, with direct flights from Montreal to Toulouse, includes a visit to the Victor Hugo Market and a cooking workshop in Toulouse, a visit to the Bouscaillous winery in Gaillac, and another to the Toulouse Lautrec Museum in Albi. Groups consist of a maximum of seven people per vehicule and are led by a driver-guide.
Transat Holidays continues to offer the Tour-and-Stay, formerly known as the Semi-Escorted Tour.
A Europe coach tour is also a “green” way to see a country, as travelling by coach significantly reduces the ecological impact of travelling. This form of travel continues to gain in popularity as Canadian vacationers become more aware about sustainable tourism.
Year-round, Transat Holidays provides its customers across Canada with a full range of holiday products. It offers sun vacations, with a choice of more than 220 hotels, mainly in the Caribbean, Mexico and Florida, along with an impressive array of flights, packages and tours to some 30 European destinations. Transat Holidays also offers more than 100 cruises all around the world.
