Insight Vacations has a nice selection of vacations, so we thought we would share this information.

Rye, NY: Insight Vacations has announced the launch of the 2011 Select Choices collection, featuring a range of European city breaks with all the benefits of independent travel without any of the hassles, including 12 new itineraries.

The new Select Choices program, which is featured in Insight’s 2011 Premium Europe and Britain program, and as a standalone brochure, consists of 18 flexible journeys in a range of desirable destinations.

Marc Kazlauskas, President of Insight Vacations, stated “I’m delighted to announce the launch of our 2011 Select Choices program, which has almost doubled since its successful introduction into the market last year. In fact, the response has been so positive, that this year we have extended the collection to cover even more cities, and have now added Edinburgh, Dublin, Florence, Venice, Vienna, Prague, Budapest, Istanbul, Athens and the Greek Islands to our range of flexible journeys, to complement the existing options of London, Paris, Rome, Florence and Venice.”

On Insight’s Select Choices program, flexibility is the key component throughout. An orientation tour is included in each city, giving guests the perfect starting point to begin their own personal exploration, taking in sights and highlights that match their specific interests.

“The itineraries are less structured, meaning travelers simply need to choose the cities they would like to visit. They are able to tailor their vacation to their personal preferences by adding or removing nights, depending on how long they would like to stay” added Kazlauskas.

To ensure that the experience is completely hassle-free, Insight’s expert tour directors are on hand acting as a ‘personal concierge’, providing well-informed yet unobtrusive assistance in each destination. The tour directors will also offer guests a range of half or full day excursions that are more tailored to individual tastes such as a guided tour of the Louvre in Paris, a visit to the mighty Colosseum and Catacombs in Rome or a cruise along the Bosphorus in Istanbul. Each excursion has been designed to enhance a client’s stay and is completely at their discretion.

These itineraries offer the perfect solution for individuals who prefer a more independent style of travel, but want to take advantage of the hassle-free, great value and high quality style that Insight is renowned for. Every itinerary includes transport in style and comfort, whether by luxury coaches limited to just 40 seats providing extra legroom, Eurostar, Express Rail, ferries or local flights; accommodation in quality hotels in great central locations, highlight stops, buffet breakfasts daily, expert commentary from your ‘personal concierge’ and a whole lot more.
