Due to the increase in the exchange rate of the American and European currencies against the Russian ruble, most tour operators have increased their prices for tours. Is it worth rushing now and trying to book the desired tour? Or it is recommended to wait anyway.
Now even housewives are actively monitoring how the ruble behaves in relation to the European and American currencies. Such a sharp jump in the direction of increasing the euro and the dollar began to greatly excite the Russians. This is understandable, since the national Russian currency is weakening, and this, in turn, may negatively affect the rise in prices.
Many tourists who are trying to take care of their summer vacation in advance are now actively buying up tours. Many tour operators offer favorable conditions if you take advantage of the "early booking" promotion. After all, most travel companies have prices for vouchers recalculated at the euro or dollar rate. Therefore, already now, many tours have become more expensive, which encourages compatriots to immediately make one hundred percent payment for the tour.
It should be noted that this year the demand for vouchers to the resorts of the Krasnodar Territory is also expected to increase. This is due to two reasons:
Firstly, many Russian tourists are afraid to go to Crimea because of the situation in Ukraine; after all, it is not yet known until the end how this whole situation on the "Euro-Maidan" will end.
Secondly, some tourists are worried that the fall of the Russian ruble will continue, and prices for foreign tours, including trips to Turkey, Greece and Spain, will increase.
Despite all these fears, there is no need to actively look for profitable tours now. We need to wait until mid-February, when the situation will be under control and the prices for the vouchers will stabilize.
