Monograms Unveils 2013 "Staycations" for Americans Driven to "Go" Travel

January 30, 2013 (PRLEAP.COM) Travel News
For Americans determined to "go" – to explore, to see the sites and enjoy the backyard landscapes of North America – Monograms has unveiled nearly 50 vacation itineraries, from sea to shining sea, including seven (7) new packaged vacations ranging from 4- to 10-days.

And for a second year, Monograms is partnering with the National Park Foundation (NPF), the official charity of America's national parks, to provide unique all-in-one packaged vacation experiences in these amazing national treasures. As part of this GoParks! partnership, when travelers book a Monograms US national park vacation, the company will make a donation to the NPF at no additional cost to travelers.

"Our outdoor escapes – those vacations featuring America's natural landscapes – are among our most popular vacations," said Nisbet. "And now, with GoParks!, we're not only giving our travelers oases where postcard views meet life-altering experiences, we're helping ensure the ongoing conservation of our national parks."

Monograms' top North American itineraries that showcase the great outdoors are Canadian Rockies by Rail, America's National Parks, Oahu, Maui & Kauai, California Coast and Canyon Escape.

Also popular are the company's single- and multi-city packages. Travelers can spend a week in the city or region of their choice for an in-depth discovery or just a few nights for a mini-break. And, because Monograms arranges transportation between cities, it's easy to combine multiple destinations like Vancouver & Victoria; Oahu, Maui & Kauai; Boston, New York & Washington D.C. or Los Angeles & San Diego.

"We're passionate about experiencing and discovering all North America has to offer," said Nisbet. "We simply want Americans to go and we've unveiled perfectly planned vacations that are just a click away."

Monograms gives travelers a choice of vetted hotels to fit their travel style. And adding another personal touch to each domestic vacation, Monograms offers travelers access to on-site Local Hosts in their start city on North American vacations. Upon arrival in their destination, the Local Host is on-hand to answer questions, arrange excursions and offer suggestions to ensure a one-of-a-kind vacation.

According to Nisbet, "Travel websites aren't the answer. Travel people are. At Monograms, we have 85 years of experience and expertise behind us. Part of the Globus family of brands, Monograms is backed by people who have traveled the world extensively – people who thrive on sharing their love of travel with others. The world is waiting. All Americans have to do is say "yes" and go!"
