Grand Rapids, Michigan – February 24, 2010 – Europe is a vacation hotspot, but with the prices of air fare increasing, booking a European vacation while staying wallet conscious is a difficult task.  An escorted Europe tour is one solution to the problem, as discounted air fare is typically included in a package along with meals, hotels, transfers, and sightseeing.

Customer demand for Spring 2010 escorted Europe tours has been very high, especially for the month of May.  Many tour operators have already sold out their May departures.  In an effort to meet the demand, Image Tours, Inc. has just opened an additional May departure for their signature 15-day HEART OF EUROPE® Circle tour. This departure will leave on May 21^st and will visit some of the most popular countries including Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Belgium, and Holland.

The HEART OF EUROPE® Circle tour travels roundtrip in and out of Frankfurt. The itinerary is an ideal choice for travelers looking for a “taste” of Europe and for anyone desiring great vacation value. It is filled with visits to enchanting cities and opportunities to experience wonderful local flavor. The trip is an experience many past travelers say they won’t soon forget.

In addition to their May 21 departure, Image is also offering low prices for the Summer and Fall.  Prices start as low as $2,990 including air, plus $110 in air taxes and fees. All of the most current dates and prices for 2010 can be found on Image’s website, www.ImageTours.com.

According to Monique Kasmauskis, Image Tours Inc General Manager, “Clients interested in the Oberammergau Passion Play have already purchased most of our space for Spring and Fall departures, The $500 per person discount gives travelers a limited-time opportunity to book the high season departures of June, July and August for about the same land and air inclusive price as the Spring and Fall departures. Due to the demand, we expect many of the summer departures will sell out before October 30 and therefore we recommend making reservations for these Passion Play tours as soon as possible.”
