March Travel Expo Deals
Good Morning Friends,
Wow, what a turn out for the Travel Expo last night, a fantastic evening. We do have a number of specials that are available only for the next 7 days or so for those that attended (or wanted to but were prevented by inclement weather) and I will run down those specials in a moment, full details are available on contacting our office for all of them.
Before I do that though just a brief update on the Pre-sale and Discount offers on our Tours please note that:
- European River Cruise, if you book and pay the $250 per person deposit today (28th March) you will still get the Pre-sale price. From Saturday Morning the price jumps by AU$1130 per person in share twin
- The Canada and Alaska pre-sale is still ongoing but we do advise that anyone interested make a deposit payment and book in as soon as they can to avoid trying to do so at the last minute when the end of the pre-sale is announced
- We are extending our discount on the Hong Kong Shopping Tour (AU$576) for another two weeks until April 21, so if you want to book in on this tour we recommend doing so soon.

A Stand Out Experience
Shoalhaven Solo Sisters is dedicated to providing you with a tour that will always “Stand Out”. Between our staff we have over 130 years of combined experience in the Travel Industry, have travelled and sold product to every corner of the globe and have experience some of the best this world has to offer.
With all our group departures we endeavour to ensure that we bring you a true highlight that will remain with you .. Walking with Lions in Zambia, Experiencing Chitwan by Elephant Back, enjoying a Sunset over the Bosphorus, seeing the remains of King Tut now back in his original tomb, or enjoying a horse-cart ride through the temple-lit byways of Bagan.
In 2014 we have a fantastic array of lead in programmes coming, each with a stand out moment you are sure to remember for years to come. Whilst in Norfolk Island we will head out one night to witness the re-enactment of the infamous Mutiny On The Bounty. On the voyage through central Australia we ensure you get to see the magnificent sight that is the Sunrise rising over Uluru. Whilst in Hong Kong we ensure that we set out one evening to experience the excitement that is the Races at Happy Valley. Then when we visit New Zealand take a moment to enjoy the majestic scenes and silence aboard the Sun Princess as we drift into Milford Sound.
So if you are looking to get away for a while in great company, with experienced tour leaders, to destinations across the world with experiences that will last forever .. then keep your eyes on this site as we expand our existing departures, prepare for future departures and let you know if any special that occur.
