(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 22, 2009 ) SAUSALITO, CaliforniaÂ—Many travelers are looking to get the most value for their dollar because of the state of the economy, so Wild Planet Adventures is maintaining their 2009 pricing for the 2010 season. Unlike many travel companies, bookings for their wildlife eco-tours have held steady or shown significant increases, so Wild Planet Adventures has been able to keep the award-winning quality of their adventures the same while lowering prices -- in some destinations quite substantially.

Wild Planet Adventures caters to wildlife enthusiasts, providing unequaled wildlife wildlife interactions, value-packed itineraries, very small touring groups and 19 years of non-commercial wildlife viewing.

There are several reasons why choosing a specialized wildlife tour with Wild Planet Adventures is a smart and cost-effective travel decision for 2010:

Cost-Per-Day: Nearly all of Wild Planet AdventuresÂ’ 2010 tours feature the lowest cost-per-day among similar competitive tours. When choosing between travel outfitters, Wild Planet recommends comparing the number of meals and activities included in base cost. Many outfitters do not list, or include, out-of-pocket costs required during travel.

Pre-Discounted Pricing: Book a 2010 vacation with Wild Planet AdventuresÂ—and pay by cash or checkÂ—and enjoy 3 percent pre-discounted pricing. Deals such as this are hard to come by and often an insiderÂ’s secret. Why give more money to credit card companies?

Low, Consolidator Rates: Flights and activities become less expensive when purchased in bulk. When traveling with Wild Planet, passengers can take advantage of Wild PlanetÂ’s long-standing relationships with flight consolidators for special rates, including bulk fares that are unpublished even on the internet.

New Lower Cost Travel Options:
The economic news may actually be in your favor in some destinations. Travelers can also enjoy several of Wild PlanetÂ’s tours for under $2,000, such as two new Baja Whale Cruises in the Sea of Cortez, and a new Baja Whale Camp both great alternatives to the Galapagos at about half the price.
