In partnership with Visa, VisitBritain has announced its new 'Shop Till You Drop' campaign in both the UAE & Kuwait which offers travellers the shopping packages to Manchester, London, Paris and Nice with prices inclusive of accommodation, rail tickets and a great variety of discount vouchers.
All travellers who book this offer through selected travel agents and pay with their Visa debit or credit card will receive complimentary discount cards and shopping vouchers so they can indulge in designer and high street shopping in places like The Trafford Centre, Lowry Outlet Mall & Manchester United Megastore in Manchester.
In addition discount booklets to shop for the biggest designer brands for a fraction of the original price at outlets such as Bicester Village in the UK, La Vallee Outlet Shopping Village and Galeries Lafayette in Paris. Shoppers spending more than a certain amount at Hediard Café or registering on the website, will enter the big draw for a chance to win a trip for 2 to Britain and France along with shopping vouchers in the UAE and Kuwait.
'We are delighted to have partnered with Visa and Maison De La France to offer this kind of package to travelers. This campaign introduces a successful partnership between the UK and France tourist boards where we join forces to offer travelers two great destinations combined with great shopping' said Carol Maddison, VisitBritain Regional Marketing Manager.
Commenting on the launch of this promotion Norliza Kassim, Vice President, Head of Marketing for the Middle East and North Africa said; "Visa is proud to offer all cardholders this fantastic opportunity to visit Britain and France, but also enjoy the value added offers with the promotion. Our promotions are designed to reward the loyalty of our cardholders and demonstrate that paying with a Visa card while abroad is safer, easier and more convenient than cash".
VisitBritain has teamed up with four travel agents in the UAE and Kuwait as authorized agents to sell this package. The agents are Al Rostamani and Al Tayer Travel in Dubai, Omeir Travel in Abu Dhabi, and Jumbo Travel in Kuwait.
This promotion will run from 21st January until end of April 2008. To book this package visit the above mentioned travel agents.
