Single Supplement Waived Entirely on All Category 1 Riverboat Cabins, and Reduced up to $1,000 on 170 Departures of 60 Itineraries to Four Continents

Tauck has announced its 2016 solo traveler savings, and the company has again eliminated the single supplement on its Category 1 European riverboat cabins. The waived single supplement applies to every Category 1 cabin on every Tauck riverboat, on every departure of every Tauck river cruise itinerary. In all, the single supplement is thus being waived on over 220 Tauck river cruise departures for the coming year. In addition, Tauck is reducing the single supplement by up to $1,000 on 170 departures of 60 itineraries to four continents.

“The cost savings we’re extending to solo travelers are obviously considerable, but they’re only one reason why our land tours and cruises are perfect for those traveling without a companion,” said Tauck CEO Dan Mahar.

“At Tauck we handle all of the advance planning prior to the trip’s start, and all of the details once the trip is underway, so there’s no burden or hassle for the traveler. And of course, solo travelers love the camaraderie and sense of assurance they get from being part of a Tauck group. Traveling with Tauck is already a great choice for solo travelers, and with the savings we’re offering, it’s an even easier decision.”

Besides waiving the single supplement for the Category 1 cabins on its European riverboats, Tauck is also taking $1,000 off the price for solo travelers booking Category 4 and 5 cabins on 48 departures of 15 different river cruises. Elsewhere in Europe, Tauck has also reduced the single supplement by up to $400 on 45 departures of 17 different land tours. The company has been equally thorough in North America, taking up to $300 off the single supplement on 53 departures of 19 itineraries. And within its “Exotics” portfolio, Tauck has trimmed the single supplement by $300 to $600 on 24 departures of 9 trips in Asia, Latin America and the Middle East.
