Several articles full of vacation deals

These vacation deals include the affordable:

New Mexico nights. Stay two nights and get a third night free at the Eldorado Hotel & Spa in Santa Fe. Rates start at $199 a night. Receive third night price adjustment upon checkout. Deal valid through Dec. 21. Mention promotional code PROSTA when booking.

And the not so affordable:

Danube River deal. Save $2,000 per couple on a last-minute deal with Cross-Culture Journeys. The 14-night Sept. 16 Danube River Discovery Cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam has a limited number of staterooms available from $3,395 to $5,395 per person, based on double occupancy. (Original prices, $4,395-$6,395.) Meals, sightseeing and fuel surcharge included.

Then we have some more travel deals here. The best one is another one I can't afford:

ITALIAN ESCAPE The Hotel Principe di Savoia in Milan is offering a Milano to Lake Como package that includes accommodations in a double deluxe room, daily full breakfasts, a one-day trip to Como with a guided tour and lunch at a restaurant with panoramic views. Guests can also visit the hotel's fitness and beauty center and receive complimentary limousine service to the center of Milan. The neoclassical hotel is located near the La Scala opera house. Available through Sept. 30. Rates start at about $1,085 a night (taxes included).

This UK paper has some deals for England and nearby spots like Egypt. My favorite seems affordable until I consider the exchange rate...

The cost of a 17-day grand voyage to Venice has been slashed by almost half. Passengers taking the Voyages of Discovery cruise from Harwich on September 4 pay £1,299, including full board and entertainment, a saving of £1,280. The ship calls at Lisbon, Gibraltar, Almería, Nice, Livorno and Sorrento before reaching Venice, from where passengers fly back to Gatwick (or Manchester for an additional charge).

I could actually seriously consider these deals, especially the $75/night Colorado River rafting trip. I remember writing about rafting a little before, and kind of doing it in Alaska, the Mendenhall River Glacier Float...

And if you've been thinking about Vegas, this deal seems like a nice price:

Stay at the Palms in Las Vegas Sundays through Thursdays in September for $79 and get a $25 dining credit. Book by Friday.
