AS holidays in eastern Europe, especially the Baltics and Poland , continue to gain popularity with Australian travellers eastern Europe specialists Beyond Travel have increased their exclusive small group tours in their latest Eastern European brochure.
The tours have more focus on combining popular well known cities with more unique regional destinations, such as the new 24-day Prague to Istanbul special journey.
Marketing manager Bryce Crampton said that another growing trend was the popularity of Poland over the last 12 months, with substantial growth mainly due to a large proportion of bookings from Australians with Polish ancestry who are looking to experience their cultural backgrounds.
He added, “They are mostly families seeking tailor-made itineraries with specific destinations related to their heritage that is personal to them, with our diverse range of product available, agents can help them create a unique once-in-a-lifetime family holiday”.
The tailor-made itineraries continue to produce very positive feedback from agents for the convenience of having recommended hotels, sight-seeing and entry passes packaged for them, with the ability to change sections of the tour to suit the individual needs of the clients.
