Welcome
fellow travel professionals.
Thank you for your interest in GreatEscape2008: The Global
Scavenger Hunt, our annual international travel adventure event.
We have created, what many in our industry have dreamed of over
the years -- a real travel competition that will annually crown
The World's Greatest Travelers™! Independent-minded
travelers will be able to test their travel savvy and global experiences
against other like-minded international jet-setters in a true cultural
immersion.
Clearly not for everyone we know and readily admit. However, the
interest in our travel adventure has been breathtakingly incredible
both here and abroad. The international
media has gotten involved, we have heard from interested travelers
from over 36 countries and travel agents around the world...we do
indeed have a special event and product to promote. Some folks have
been on our "waiting list" two years now wanting to participate
in it! For several years running fellow travel industry professionals
at London's World Travel Market have given us glowing reviews.
So what is GreatEscape2008:The Global Scavenger Hunt™
and what's in it for you the travel agent?
A $1,500 commission for each Team (2 persons per Team) that
you get to participate in The Global Scavenger Hunt (upon your clients
full payment).
