Cape Town - For 2015 Trafalgar will be catering to single travellers by waiving or significantly reducing single room supplements in many of the packages offered, usually by about 50 percent but the waiver can be as much as 100 percent.
These single-friendly deals will be valid on selected departures for 17 of their popular itineraries.
“Single guests often feel penalised because they have to pay more, so we've addressed this by creating portfolios that have been branded for the single traveller,” says Theresa Szejwallo, managing director for Trafalgar.
Trafalgar's 7 day Italian Holiday priced from R19 900 features three departure dates in April and August that have a 100 percent waiver of the single supplement, representing a savings of over R3000.
Solo travellers can visit Rome, Venice, Lake Garda, Florence and Pisa at no additional cost.
This trip is packed to the rafters with authentic Insider Experiences such as a delectable Be My Guest dining experience in the Italian Lake District, where they will join a local family on their Tuscan villa and wine estate.
In Florence guests will enjoy a sightseeing tour with a Local Specialist taking in the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio and the Piazza della Signoria which features wonderful sculptures and palazzi.
The 6 day Scenic England holiday also features five nights' accommodation with breakfast daily, a Be My Guest lunch and two dinners. Visit London, Stonehenge, Salisbury, Exeter, Plymouth, Bath, Stratford-upon-Avon, Liverpool, Harrowgate, York and Cambridge. The single supplement is waivered 100 percent on departures in April and October. This holiday is priced from R15 950 and the single supplement waiver equates to a R2220 savings.
Solo travellers can also explore the Best of Turkey with the option to add a cruise on a departure in June. Spend 14 days exploring one of the hottest destinations at the moment and the single supplement is also 100 per cent waivered.
