Leading Consultants Immerse Themselves in Culture and History on
Avalon Waterways Danube Cruise

TORONTO (December 15, 2023): With Eastern Europe, river cruising and authentic travel
trending strongly for 2024, TRAVELSAVERS’ top 50 advisors experienced it all during their recent
Elite Retreat. The advisors cruised the Danube from Budapest to Vienna on the Avalon
Impression from November 29 to December 5 in recognition of their sales success.

In a new TRAVELSAVERS Canada survey, advisors named Eastern Europe among the top rising
destinations for next year and river cruising as one of the most popular travel styles. River cruise
sales are up by an impressive 114 percent in Canada. Personalized experiences and authentic
travel also placed on the top-five list of emerging trends, and both came to life for the Elite
advisors as they immersed themselves in the region’s unique history and culture.

In every port, a winter wonderland awaited TRAVELSAVERS consultants. They visited the
region’s celebrated Christmas markets and sampled sweet treats of the season. In Budapest,
advisors visited a factory creating glass ornaments by hand using traditional techniques and
decorated their own art. In Bratislava, the group learned creative techniques in a painting
workshop. In Vienna, they attended a Champagne reception and an exclusive evening tour
of the magnificent Baroque Belvedere Palace.

“The TRAVELSAVERS Elite Retreat is our chance to celebrate our outstanding advisors and their
sales achievements,” said Jane Clementino, Senior Vice President and General Manager of
TRAVELSAVERS Canada. “During the event, consultants gain firsthand knowledge of these
destinations and travel styles, helping them continue to deliver next-level travel experiences for
their clients. Our top advisors are dedicated to providing the same distinctive experiences they
enjoyed on this reward trip.”

Networking was also a vital component of the event, as the TRAVELSAVERS Canada
community members built new relationships and rekindled old ones. During one-on-one
meetings, advisors learned about the latest product and trend developments from preferred
suppliers. Informal connections forged during tours, hands-on experiences and evening events
were equally valuable.
