Virgin Holidays, the UK�s leading scheduled tour operator to the USA is launching its 2007 USA & Canada brochure, with 14 new destinations, amazing early booking offers and prices from just �459 for 3 nights in Boston.
Getting out and about to explore the vast continent of North America has always appealed to our customers which is why next year�s brochure is bursting with a variety of touring options such as fly drives, escorted coach tours, twin centres and cruises. New for 2007 is Harley Davidson hire, perfect for anyone who dreams of recreating the iconic scenes in �Easy Rider.� Now you too could cruise along route 66 on a �Fatboy�, �Road King� or �Low Rider�. Or if you prefer a more sedate way to explore Motor Homes offer a home from home on wheels in America and Canada. With so much choice, Virgin Holidays has made it easier for customers with suggested tour itineraries throughout the brochure.
An exciting new range of fly drives means there are a wider variety of routes for customers to explore independently in North America. Why not consider �Footsteps of the King� and discover Elvis� home cities of Memphis and Nashville renowned for their passion for music, or if you prefer to get back to nature there�s �Whales, Bears and Vancouver Island� in the untamed wilderness of Canada.
There are 14 new destinations for 2007 including, the Carolinas, which are made for touring with their slow winding roads through Deep South country. Also new for 2007 are the New England destinations of Salem and Rockport, home to the infamous witch trials. An all new Georgia section now features Macon. Plus for style setters who like to be seen in all the right places they�ll love the introduction of Lake Las Vegas and West Hollywood.
With so much choice on offer it�s hard to know where to start which is why Virgin Holidays has made its brochure more user friendly by breaking the USA and Canada 2007 brochure into 6 distinct sections with specific destination information; touring, East coast USA, West coast USA, Hawaii and Canada.
Plus following the success of last year�s New York neighbourhoods map Virgin Holidays now features a Los Angeles neighbourhood map as each area has its own look, atmosphere and attractions. We�ve broken them up into handy, bite-size chunks so go on and explore new areas!
2007�s USA & Canada brochure is simply bursting with offers including early booking offers up to �300 off per couple, free nights at many hotels, free car upgrades and two for one offers.
