The Business Council of Westchester will offer international trips next year for business leaders and others in the Westchester community through a newly launched travel program.
Marsha Gordon, president and CEO of The Business Council of Westchester, in a press release said the business membership organization is partnering with international tour companies Collette Travel and Indus Travel for planned trips to India, Portugal and Ireland in 2015. Travel arrangements are being handled by Caprice Travel Agency in Yonkers, she said.
“Traveling with peers provides great opportunities to build personal and business relationships,” said Gordon. “Very often, travel introduces people to new cultures and provides us with a global awareness, which is great for personal and professional growth.”
The 2015 tours include:
- Incredible India, March 19-29. The 10-day tour explores three highlights of North India – Delhi, Jaipur and Agra.
- Sunny Portugal, May 15-24. Stops include Cascais, Lisbon, Jerónimos Monastery, Fatima, Monsaraz and the Alentejo countryside as well as two winery tours and five UNESCO World Heritage sites.
- Shades of Ireland, Nov. 3-12. The itinerary includes visits to Dublin, Kilkenny, Waterford Crystal, Blarney Castle, Ring of Kerry, Cliffs of Moher and Galway.
All-inclusive prices for the tours start at $3,000 for 10 days, according to the Business Council.
