Pink Jeep Tours Unveils Much Anticipated Tour Trekker, the Juggernaut of Sightseeing Vehicles |
The Tour Trekker Paves the Way for the Next Generation of Luxury
Sightseeing
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- What is now new for 2008 in Las Vegas
is not a hotel-resort, nightclub or restaurant. This time, it is a vehicle
... and this vehicle is really pink.
Luxurious yet rugged, the Tour Trekker is the first of its kind,
high-end, all-terrain, 4-wheel drive vehicle, designed to be the ultimate
tour vehicle.
For nearly four years, Pink Jeep Tours (http://www.pinkjeep.com), the
premier off-road tour company in the southwest, developed and refined this
one-of-a-kind vehicle. Custom-built to easily navigate tough desert terrain
and overcome challenging climate, the Tour Trekker spaciously seats 10
passengers, while preserving the intimate "small group experience," which
marketing experts now note as being key for today's tourists who want more
interaction, control and participation during their experiences.
"We saw this trend coming years ago. We knew in order to get ahead, we
needed to find that special vehicle to service our niche market. But when
we realized we could not find that vehicle, we decided to create it
ourselves from scratch. This was a bold move for a sightseeing company but
we took the gamble anyway," says Shawn Wendell, owner, Pink Jeep Tours.
Comfort is paramount; each fully-loaded Tour Trekker offers guests a
state-of-the-art-designed interior that includes reclining leather captain
seats, 15-inch DVD players, large tinted windows for unparalleled and
unobstructed viewing, cross compartment A/C venting increasing passenger
comfort and foam insulated walls for a quieter ride and superb climate
control. The wheel base provides a smoother ride with dual rear wheels
enhancing stability and safety. True to the JEEP(R) brand, Chrysler
designed and licensed a seven-slot grille specifically for this
application.
Tour Trekker passengers can enjoy any of Pink Jeep Tours' 10 off-road
tours to the Southwest's most awe-inspiring landmarks, including the Grand
Canyon, Hoover Dam, Death Valley, Eldorado Canyon, Mt. Charleston, Red Rock
Canyon, Zion National Park and Valley of Fire. By easily navigating the
outdoor terrain, the Tour Trekker allows guests unique access to remote
destinations, thereby ensuring an once-in-a-lifetime experience. In
addition to boasting the largest fleet of off-road vehicles, Pink Jeep
Tours has the destination's largest groups of professionally trained tour
guides with nearly 40 knowledgeable guides on staff ensuring tours are not
only entertaining, but also educational. Most tours depart at 7:45 a.m.
with half-day tours departing at 7:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.
By the end of the year, there will be 20 Tour Trekkers in Las Vegas
with 4 in Sedona, Ariz. Additional specs include:
