With the end of tax season quickly approaching, many Americans are planning for the sudden cash influx that a tax refund will hopefully bring, and members of the travel industry are taking note by offering new deals and discounts just in time for the April 17 deadline. From the national parks of Africa to the beaches of Mexico and beyond, here are just a few of the travel deals cropping up around the world.

Rail Europe is giving Americans even more reason to explore the continent via train with a tax season offer valid for a limited time. Bookings of $400 or more made between April 10 and April 24, 2018 will receive an extra $25 off.

Agents can book these passes directly by visiting agent.raileurope.com and using the promo code TAXDAYRE18.

For a sunny getaway south of the border, travelers can head to Solmar Hotels & Resorts, a collection of luxury resorts on Mexico’s Baja peninsula, where they can explore Los Cabos, indulge in creative local dining options, and take advantage of the property’s tax season offering. For bookings made now through July 31, 2018 for travel through Dec. 20, 2018, travelers will receive 60 percent off their entire stay at Solmar Hotels & Resorts with the exception of Quinta del Sol.
