Black History Tours Fills Inaugural Need for Rooms

Tuesday, 06 Jan, 2009 0

In the days following President Elect Barack Obama’s historic election, the overwhelming demand for accommodation space and transportation options were a much needed, pre-holiday boon for the entire Metro DC area. Now with only two weeks before the Inaugural events, there are still many American families that want to witness history firsthand. BlackHistoryTours has special deals on affordable hotel packages and can assist you in attending the Inauguration in person.

"Hotel rooms are a perishable commodity," Eric Alboher, Founder & CEO of BlackHistoryTours.com commented. "If there are hotels that have space, they will want to fill those rooms." Mr. Alboher, a twenty-eight year veteran in the travel/tourism industry, specifically created www.inaugurationroomsavailable.com to help those interested in finding rooms in Washington DC and outlying areas attend the inauguration. The website has several hotel and transportation options. Due to the historic anticipated attendance, large screen televisions will be placed on the National Lawn and many establishments will be hosting Inauguration "Watch Parties."

BlackHistoryTours has commissioned a fleet of new buses that will serve most major cities from Miami to Charleston for transportation to the inauguration. All BlackHistoryTours Inauguration room packages include: Full American Breakfast, Porterage, All Taxes, Resort and Service Fees and Circulator Ticket or Metro Card. Special deals include accommodations at the world class Gaylord National Resort. Additional room and air packages are available in DC and surrounding areas from Harrisburg, Pa. to Richmond, Va.

Since tickets to official events are restricted, BlackHistoryTours joined forces with The Alvin James Group, to promote the "We the People Celebration" (www.wethepeoplecelebration.com) at FedEx Field (Redskins Stadium). This event is held inside the concourse of the exclusive club level. Revelers will enjoy a luxurious environment in the completely enclosed club level of the stadium which boasts thousands of plush leather chairs and couches, mahogany accents, flat screen televisions and multiple dining experiences. Entertainment is provided by national recording artists, acts, comedians, and DJs on four stages located throughout the concourse. The evening culminates at midnight with the only fireworks show taking place in the area.

"BlackHistoryTours provides multicultural tours that expose everyone to the diversity and fabric of American history. At BlackHistoryTours, we bring history to life," Alboher said. A portion of all sales is donated to the Open Your Eyes Foundation whose mission is to promote Kingian Nonviolence Youth Leadership infusing travel, cultural exposure and real life experiences to empower America’s youth.
