Travel Deals Roundup: Dublin, Cape Town & St. John, Oh My!
Travel Deals — By Nicole Lerner on April 15, 2009 at 11:52 amAs springtime starts to heat up in the Northern Hemisphere, so do the travel deals. Get out there and enjoy some awesome discounts to Ireland, South Africa and the U.S. Virgin Islands!
We told you about a great travel deal to Dublin last week, for those still itching to visit the Emerald Isle, we found an even better one this week: Sceptre Tours just released a package vacation including 6 nights at the Ritz-Carlton with air from $699 per person (for 2-5 travelers). The package deal saves more than $1000 off the cost of all components of the trip. The package includes:
- 6 nights in a 2BR + Living Room suite at the Ritz-Carlton Powerscourt, just south of Dublin with easy access to Kilkenny and other attractions of Eastern Ireland
- Roundtrip airfare to Dublin from NYC or Boston (+$40 from Chicago, DC; +$100 from SF)
- Rental car with unlimited mileage
- Complimentary pint of Guinness upon arrival
Prices vary quite a bit by date, flexible travelers are more likley to find the deal at $699 later this year, but Spring and Summer departures are still heavily discounted. Visit Sceptre Tours for more info.
Has the high cost of airfare always crushed your dreams of visiting South Africa?
