Why Choose Winter Travel?

January and February 2025 were extremely busy months for ACIS as more and more groups discover the benefits of off-season travel. There are lower costs and fewer crowds, and you don’t necessarily need to freeze in exchange (Costa Rica 2026 anyone?).
With fewer crowds, you’ll see places like Venice in a whole different way.
Speaking of Venice and February travel, combine the two and you’ll also get the benefit of seeing the dazzling costumes of Carnevale up close.
There’s a certain kind of enchantment that happens, too, when you’re experiencing a snow day in the alps versus your own backyard.

And really, nothing will make you feel more intrepid than heading across snow-covered Iceland. It’s a great excuse to pack your favorite cozy sweaters.
We promise that just because it’s a different time of year, does not mean you will consume any less gelato.
And it’s good to remember that just because winter weather at home, does not mean it’s winter weather everywhere! Check out the short sleeves and shorts worn in Ecuador in February.


So come with ACIS on a winter tour! You’ll get the same quality of services, from centrally located hotels to world-class tour managers, and life-long memories for a lower price.
