Ways to Save

When you ask many of our repeat travelers the one thing that comes to mind when they think about VBT, after they rave about the amazing experience they had exploring a unique destination side-by-side with the locals, they often state “value” as the next common denominator. When you travel with VBT, you know that you’re getting the best value possible as a result of our long established relationships with many major airlines and local operators.

Here are some of the ways to save when you travel with VBT…

Get The Best Value on Your Vacation With Our Air Package

Take advantage of our Air Packages and save even more on your vacation.

Look at the cost of roundtrip tickets to Europe today, and you’ll see for yourself how difficult it is—if not impossible—to find a number anywhere near our pre-negotiated fixed price. Plus, with our Air Package, you get so much more than just a flight! Here’s everything you get with the VBT Air Package:

Round-trip international airfare from most major US cities and select Canadian gateways. Air fuel surcharges and government taxes & fees are included.
Contracts with award-winning airline carriers like Emirates Airlines, LAN Airlines, and Lufthansa.
All overseas airport and hotel transfers with meet-and-greet services with a VBT representative.
Up to two extra nights of accommodations in convenient 3- and 4-star hotels.
Daily breakfasts that will fuel you for a day of exploring.

You’ll also enjoy convenience and peace of mind—our expert tour consultants handle all the logistics.

Back-to-Back Vacations

Save on international airfare by pairing two VBT vacations back-to-back.
