Surrey agency Haslemere Travel has emailed its clients, inviting them to visit New York for a festive virtual weekend break.
It has created a free e-book with a two-day itinerary that offers ideas about accommodation and attractions, plus places to eat and drink.
Clients can click on video links or try virtual experiences, recipes and shopping suggestions, as the agency hopes to inspire future holidays.
The link can also be shared online with friends and family.
Agency owner Gemma Antrobus said in her email to clients: “This time last year I had absolutely no idea what 2020 had in store for us all. It has certainly been a ‘journey’ but sadly of a very different kind to the ones we usually love to help you plan.
“Now, as we reach the end of this global annus horribilis, we are grateful to see some light at the end of the tunnel with good news on vaccines and testing procedures.
“There is still more clarity to gain, but whilst we wait for this, the team and I will continue to work with our partners to ensure you are the first to know all the updates.
“I would personally like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your tremendous support and patience, throughout 2020, as we’ve navigated the stormy seas of Covid-19 together.
“To show our appreciation, we have a little gift for you which we hope will provide some seasonal balm to soothe your itchy feet and nourish your wanderlust, whilst we remain grounded.
“We would like to take you on a very special journey to one of our favourite cities: New York.”
