Questions & Answers
  Ask A Question

Question: What transportation costs are not covered by the quote?

You will need to purchase on tour air at an additional cost with trips traveling through Australia as they do not take a motor coach through the outback.  If you look on the map you will need to purchase a flight anytime a little plane appears between two cities.  We can arrange all of these flights through Trafalgar at an excellent price.  

Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?

Each person is allowed one "check-in," and one "carry-on." Remember to take all valuables with you as "carry-on", because electronic equipment, cameras, laptops, jewelry, business documents and money are not covered by the airlines' liability, so always carry them aboard with you.

Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?

Airfare from your point of origin to and from the trip is not included in the land price.

We have been on 7 Trafalgar tours and this one ranks right at the top. By far the longest and most adventurous. Nellie Sullivan was one of the best tour directors we’ve ever had. She went beyond what most TDs have done. Our optional excursions in Australia and New Zealand were phenomenal. Definitely a trip to remember.

There are some hotels that still go in your rooms ,even when you hand out the do not disturb sign. That is something I do not like. Otherwise every one was kind to us. It was well worth the time and money to me.
