The summer might be winding down but Autumn Travel is heating up for the world’s top rated tour operator - Austin-Lehman Adventures
Billings, MT, USA, August 20, 2010 (PRESSbooth.ORG) -- It has been a banner year to date for Travel + Leisure’s top rated tour operator Austin-Lehman Adventures (ALA) (http://www.austinlehman.com/) and the Fall is shaping up to be a record-breaking season.
“People are traveling with renewed gusto again,” reports co-founder and operating director Dan Austin. “Coming off a very strong summer season we are heading into what might be our best Fall ever.” Austin suggests proper brand and price positioning of ALA’s biking vacations have made all the difference. “While competitors were raising rates and looking where to save a dime we were looking how we could add more depth and value to our Europe bike tours.”
As an example Austin points out their Tuscany: The Heartland Tour which actually came down $300 in price in 2010 from the previous year’s luxury rate. Highlights include Florence and its cobblestone streets and museums, Siena and its marbled Duomo, and San Gimignano surrounded by 14 medieval towers. 2010 Fall tours priced at $3,398 are set for Sep 18-24 and Oct 2-8.
