Olympic Travel Packages Tag

Only 310 days until the London Olympics begin!  The countdown continues for the thousands of patrons and athletes across the globe who anxiously await the arrival of the Summer Games.  At Sports Traveler we are also getting excited for what looks to be a very special Olympics.  Soon we will see increasingly more news stories on high profile competitors like Michael Phelps, Usain Bolt, and the U.S. Men's Basketball team.

This past Tuesday police officials in London began conducting security tests for the 2012 Summer Olympics.  In order to prepare for every situation the London police have teamed up with the Met, UK Border Agency, and other surrounding police forces.  At this point there has been 600 million pounds set aside for the operations of all security during the 2012 Olympics.  The 600 million is just a piece of the reported 9.3 billion pounds that is required to host the 2012 Summer Games.  It has also been reported that the Olympic Security committee will use up to 12,000 officers at the peak of Olympic traffic.

Check out our latest YouTube video highlighting the fantastic city of London and our London in 2012 travel programs that are available now for 2012.

On our company's site inspection in August we visited all the most spectacular sights and the great hotels that we are offering for travel packages. All of our hotels are in great locations, all close to the Tube - the subway system that links the city to all the Olympic venues and sights.
