NBA Safaris introduces the basketball vacation

New travel agency NBA Safaris offers basketball vacations from Europe to the NBA
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Oct 03, 2009 – On October 27th the National Basketball Association (NBA) of America will kick-off the 2009-2010 season. This season you will hear more languages being spoken on the court and in the stands than ever before. Most of those languages will be European, not in the least thanks to NBA Safaris.

This new travel agency (www.nbasafaris.com) organizes basketball vacations for Europeans to the USA, where they can see for themselves how the great basketball players from their own country, like Dirk Nowitzki, Tony Parker and Pau Gasol are starring in the NBA, the world’s best basketball competition.

NBA Safaris is jumping in on the growing market for sports travel in Europe. After football, motor sports and special events like the Olympics, the time has now come for basketball. It’s one of the most popular sports in Europe, but all the best players are going to America to earn the big bucks in the NBA. Now the millions of basketball fans in Europe can spend their vacation going on an NBA Safari, following their favorite players from city to city, from game to game.

“I’m a huge NBA fan myself,” says David Burger, founder of NBA Safaris. “But since there was no travel agency that could help me, I put together my first NBA Safari for myself. I chose Texas as my destination. They’ve got four of the best teams in the NBA within a few hours driving from each other: the Mavericks, Rockets, Hornets and Spurs. It was so awesome to see my heroes from up close, like Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Kidd, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and Chris Paul.”

It seems the 30 teams in the NBA offer plenty of vacation opportunities, especially since there are over 1200 games played each season. Add to that the 49 European players active in the NBA this season and your choices seem endless. “That’s exactly where we think we deliver the most value,” says David “We study the NBA schedule with European fans in mind and come up with Safaris that are exciting, but also easy and affordable.”

A quick look around on their website (www.nbasafaris.com) gives a good impression of the sort of vacation NBA Safaris has in mind. There are three types of Safaris: Region Safaris, Player Safaris and Build-Your-Own Safaris. The Region Safaris are about visiting the best games a region has to offer, while the Player Safaris are about following a European Player from game to game.

All vacations take a little over a week to complete and the driving distance is never more than a few hours. The Build-Your-Own Safaris are for those who want a shorter or longer vacation or those who want to see some of the less popular teams and players.

The latest addition to the sports travel market is catching on fast. The interest in the Safaris for the upcoming season is high. The most popular Safari of the moment is the Spanish Player Safari starting on November 5th in Los Angeles, California. It covers the match between the brothers Pau and Marc Gasol and also a match with José Calderon of the Raptors. The Safari is priced at €1.299,- including flights, 9 nights in a 3-star hotel, car rental and tickets for 3 games. If this is not the Safari for you, don’t worry. There are over 30 different Safaris to choose from on www.nbasafaris.com.
