TORONTO — G Adventures is making a big push for its marine trips this month with a 15% off sale, a bonus 2% agent commission and the chance for agents to earn a spot on their own sailing trip.

According to national sales manager Sean Russo, the company’s Marine travel style has been popular for bookings, with sales for Canada more than doubling in interest year-on-year for the month of January at 36% of new bookings for January 2021, versus 16% in January 2020.

“People like the idea of travelling in their own floating ‘bubble’ as health and safety precautions continue to factor into travellers’ holiday choices, so we’re also seeing increased interest in agent-led private group bookings on our water-based tours,” he said. “Our Marin trips take people away from the trodden tourist routes and out to remote islands and spaces, plus travellers can rest assured we have them covered onboard with our enhanced Travel with Confidence health and safety policy.”

Trips can be booked up until 11:59 p.m. EST on Feb. 28, 2021 and are available for travel up until June 30, 2022.
