Tour Itinerary

Book With Flexibility

Travelers may cancel or amend their trip up to 60 days before departure. Any difference in cost between the original and new booking will still apply.

Cancellations made at least 60 days prior to departure allow travelers to either change their trip or departure date without penalty (subject to price differences), or receive a Future Travel Credit (FTC) equal to the value of the land portion of the trip. This FTC can be applied toward another trip or booking at a later date of their choice and will remain valid for 24 months from the date of issue. Please note that airline policies regarding changes and penalties may vary.

The flexible deposit will remain associated with the traveler’s profile and can be used to book a new trip with the company or one of its TTC sister brands. Alternatively, it may be gifted to a friend, in accordance with the FlexDeposit policy.

Questions & Answers
  Ask A Question

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 were lucky that the group of people with were good, but it was a large group tour and did have some of the downfalls of a trip of that nature, like frequent breaks for the bathroom, difficulty when eating out together, and getting things on and off the coach. The trip was still great and a good value for the money.

It was a good value and the experiences included were worth it. The only part that wasn't the best were the accommodations as it was hit and miss. Half of the hotels on the trip were okay, and the other half were really nice.
