Yes, you read correctly.
This May Day (May 1st) marks ten years since the first group of Pioneers travelled to North Korea and started the journey that would become Young Pioneer Tours. Like any company, there have been ups and downs, but over these 10 years we’ve had some great adventures and met some of the best travellers in the world, you, our Pioneers!
To celebrate this 10 year anniversary, we are offering 4 simultaneous tours, 4 parties, all your favourite guides, and all at 2008 prices, that’s right the same price we were charging 10 years ago!
North Korea – May Day Tour, €795
Cuba May Day Tour – $795 USD
Unrecognised Countries Tour – €1395
Now before you newbies get excited, this offer is ONLY for returning Pioneers (not YPT virgins) and is valid for all bookings from today (February 12th) until March 12th, after which prices will be raised!
We would sincerely love to see all our old friends at one of the following YPT 10-year events:
North Korea – May Day Tour – €795
(yes, that’s a 4-night tour at just €795!)
Back to where it all began, we’ll of course be heading to Pyongyang for May Day, 10 years after the first Pioneers went there. But this year will be a May Day with a difference.
As well as joining in the May Day celebrations with the Pyongyang locals we will also be holding our very own Taedonggang riverside barbecue and party at the newly opened Rakrang Hotel, with our favourite KITC guides there too!
The Guides – Troy Collings, Rowan Beard, Matt Kulesza, Charlotte Guttridge
Cuba May Day Tour – $795 USD (Colombia FARC Tour $1045)
Apart from North Korea, the other spiritual home of YPT has got to be Cuba, and there is literally no time better to be there than for the May Day parade, part Soviet-style military parade and part Latin American carnival.
This year we are also venturing to Colombia, discounts available on the combo or if you have been to Cuba already we can transfer the discount to Colombia where the party will be continuing!
So join us on the Malecon for a YPT anniversary to remember!
The Guides – Gareth Johnson, Alistair Riddell
Unrecognised Countries Tour – €1395
One of the things YPT has truly pioneered and one of our finest achievements has been travel in unrecognized countries, from Transnistria to South Ossetia to Somaliland. But Nagorno-Karabakh and Abkhazia remain two of our favourites, and this tour is another quintessential YPT celebratory tour.
We’ll be celebrating Caucasus style on the first real night of this tour with barbecue, mixing with the locals and of course there will probably be vodka.
The Guides – Marko Mudrak
So, if you’d like to be part of the biggest YPT party EVER! Then get in touch with your favourite guide, so you can be in their group for the tour, and then let’s all party like its 2008!
