Have you been wishing to travel abroad, but waiting for that perfect opportunity? Perhaps that perfect opportunity has just arrived.

The US dollar is stronger than it’s been in years, which means that while traveling abroad you can get a lot more bang for your buck! Everything from airfare and a Prosecco tasting in the Italian countryside, to a pint of beer in an Irish pub, is less expensive for Americans than it’s been in years. As of January 13, 2014, 1 Euro is equal to 1.1835 American Dollar. When you consider the cost of an entire trip, this means hundreds of dollars in savings! For example, booking a $4,000 trip could equate to over $600 in ‘savings’, allowing your dollar to go further and have less out of pocket expense in the destination.

According to Steve Born, Vice President of Marketing for the Globus family of brands, “The strong dollar is worth celebrating!”   To revel in the increased value of the dollar, Globus and Fox World Travel have launched many promotions for travelers to save big on many of the most popular travel destinations including London, Britain, Italy, and more.
