Sherman's Travel

Sure, chances are you’re not training for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, but still, you might want to consider packing your parka and skis and visiting Innsbruck, Austria – host of the eminent Games in 1964 and 1976. From January 7 through January 31, World on Skis is offering an incredibly discounted seven-night vacation package to this ski paradise from just $1,743 – which is a staggering $1,140 less than what it would cost if you booked this trip by yourself!

The deal includes round-trip airfare from New York City, seven nights’ accommodations at the five-star Grand Hotel Europa (rates are usually $270/night), as well as daily breakfast. And, if skiing the fresh powder is a top priority of yours, you can buy a 6-day ski pass with the money you’re initially saving on this trip – for roughly $300 – that comes out to just about $50/day.

To book your winter trip to Austria, call 1-866-678-5858.

About Innsbruck, Austria: Settled 800 years ago, and host of the Winter Olympic Games in ’64 and ’76, Innsbruck has since achieved ski-haven status, containing eight ski areas, 75 ski lifts, and 177 miles of skiable powder. Even if you aren’t an avid skier, you will be enamored with Innsbruck’s world-class charm and historic attractions such as the Golden Roof (which is comprised of 2,738 gold-plated tiles and dates back to the beginning of the 16th century), the colossal Ambras Castle, as well as the Imperial Court Palace.
