June 16, 2003 -- Two fine tour operators have recently become one, and to introduce their new wares to the public, prices have been cut to the bone. The combined Nordique Tours/Norvista have just come out with a $649 Summer Sale to Germany, which gives you six days (four nights) in four-star hotels there, and roundtrip on Lufthansa from New York's JFK, Boston or Philadelphia. The package also includes daily breakfast. Best of all, you choose your destination, which could be Berlin, Heidelberg, Dresden, Leipzig, Nuremberg, Stuttgart, Frankfurt or Munich, to mention only a few.

You can extend your stay, and, of course, there are other low prices from different gateways. A few samples include $689 from Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Miami, Minneapolis and Washington, D.C.; $729 from Dallas, Denver, Houston and Phoenix; $749 from Los Angeles, Portland, San Francisco and Seattle.

Prices are per person based on double occupancy and are valid from July 1 through August 31, 2003. The package must be booked by July 10, 2003. Taxes, surcharges and airport fees are not included.

Other packages offered by Nordique Tours/Norvista include these gems: From $749, five days (three nights) in Saxony (Dresden, for instance), including air, with breakfast daily in your choice of listed Romantik Hotels.
