Boston, MA (February 9, 2017) – Students, teachers, and young, active professionals craving sun and surf can now save money on spring break travel from small-group tour operator G Adventures. The award-winning, sustainable trip specialist hopes to inspire vacationers to think differently about their break, and consider travels that offer more than just bar- and beach-time.

During G Adventures' “Spring Break Squad Sale”, 14 different itineraries in seven countries in the Americas will be discounted with savings of up to 10, 15 or 20 percent off retail, depending on the number of bookings. Many of the trips will come from the tour operator's Yolo (You only live once) and Active product lines, which combine authentic adventures with value, and explore iconic destinations in Central America, the Caribbean and South America. They're offered at discount during February and March.

“Spring break is a rite of passage for many young people in the U.S., but it usually involves all-inclusive resorts, crowded beaches and touristy bars. We want to encourage vacationers to spring break better,” said G Adventures Marketing Manager, Steve Lima. “Our adventures offer a great workout, eye-opening views, and up-close experiences with wildlife and local communities that will create fun learning outside the classroom. The more friends you take, the more you'll save.”

Spring break travelers can earn extra savings by booking with one or more companions. For example: two travelers can receive 10 percent off their trip cost with promotion code: 17GA010ADV19. Threesomes can save 15 percent off with promotion code: 17GA015ADV15. And four or more friends can maximize savings by booking their breaks together and earning 20 percent off, using promotion code: 17GA020ADV08.

“As a business that believes in the power of travel for personal and global good, we want to help Americans get out and experience more of the world, while having an amazing and affordable time,” Lima added.
