My friend and travel industry colleague for over 30 years is a great guy by the name of Bo Adams. He owns a little company out in Marina Del Rey, California by the name of City Escape Holidays.City Escape Holidays is one of the premier travel companies that still sells all-inclusive overnight city packages to places like New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Nashville, Philadelphia-15 cities in total. In addition, they sell fantastic packages to special events like the Super Bowl, Daytona 500, Rose Bowl, US Open Tennis and many others throughout the country.
Bo and his team provide a very personal level of service to those travelers that want to have a special experience in the city of their choosing. They don't just sell you a few nights in a hotel and include run of the mill tickets to the Broadway Show or event you want to attend. They take their time, get to know you and offer you a choice of different options such as deluxe room arrangements or premium tickets to a show, and specialized sight seeing tours so you get a real feel for the city you plan on visiting.
Bo Adams is one of the original city package visionaries to come along so early in my carreer in the Broadway Show ticket business. Although many others have tried to duplicate my friend Bo's efforts, his City Escape Holidays continues to thrive even during this downward economy. Many others have long since gone away.
With this in mind, I wanted to bring our friends at City Escape Holidays an important testimonial to our Applause Theater Service Broadway Ticket News blog readers. If you or anyone you know needs help with learning, planning or discussing a trip to one of the 15 cities that City Escape Holidays provides its hotel and theater/special events services in, you should consider having a look at their up-to-date newsletter. Or if you have a few minutes, you can call them at 800-222-0022. Ask for Bo, Claudia or Sandra or one of the other fantastic and friendly city package experts at City Escape Holidays. You'll be so glad you did.
Here's a copy of their latest newsletter below, you can sign up for your very own subscription if you want. Enjoy.
