Can I book a group?
We welcome groups of all sizes. If a group of 5-8 people travels together, a discount of 5% per person applies to the LAND-only portion of your tour. So it pays to get together with your family and friends! If 9 or more people travel together, we offer attractive group discounts based on how many people travel. Conditions apply. Read more
What happens if I am traveling alone? Is there an extra charge?
When you travel with Trafalgar you won’t be penalised for being a solo traveller. Instead, we provide two options that save you money! Our room-matching service pairs you up with someone of the same gender whilst on tour, thereby saving you the cost of a single supplement. Or, if you’re not interested in being matched up and prefer a room of your own, you’ll appreciate our low single-room supplement.
What is the single supplement?
The single supplement is the discount price that is offered to those who would like to stay in a room on their own.
Are prices based on double occupancy?
All prices quoted on the Trafalgar website and in Trafalgar brochures are per person, sharing a double/twin room (unless stated otherwise).
Are airport transfers included?
Transfers will depend on the tour you choose. In general, if you buy Trafalgar’s Land and Air package then return transfers between the airport and hotel are included.
Do I need Travel Insurance?
Trafalgar strongly recommends that all clients have an insurance policy to ensure your peace of mind before and whilst traveling. It’s important that you protect yourself in case of trip cancellation / interruption for any reason, travel / baggage delay or loss of baggage and medical expenses.
Why isn’t my existing medical insurance enough coverage?
Check with your primary care insurer but most insurance companies will not cover accidents overseas or out of the area and usually claims will only be met up to a stated limit. Travel insurance will cover balances up to a much higher amount. In addition you will receive cover for travel costs, accommodations and assistance.
Will I need a passport?
Passports are needed when travelling outside your home country. Your passport should be valid for 6 months beyond the conclusion of your trip.
Will I need a visa?
You are responsible for obtaining all necessary visas prior to the departure of your tour. Depending on your nationality, you may need visas to enter certain countries included on your tour. Please note that obtaining visas can take up to six weeks prior to your departure. It is strongly advised that you consult your travel agent, and local Consulate or Embassy of the country you are visiting, well in advance to determine which visas you require and how to obtain them.
What is Express Check-In?
Trafalgar’s Express Check-In is an online check-in facility that allows you to provide all your essential details and preferences to Trafalgar, prior to your departure, so that we can better serve your needs. Express Check-In is available to anyone who books a Trafalgar tour and pays a deposit on their booking. Express Check-In must be completed at least 15 days prior to your tour departure date and only takes 10 minutes to complete. Visit www.trafalgar.com/express.
When will I receive my documents from Trafalgar?
Travel documents are usually sent 21 days prior to departure.
Can I request special dietary meals?
The meals on tour will provide you with a balanced diet and are based on local foods and menus. We can accommodate passengers who prefer a vegetarian diet and can assist with diabetic, gluten free and other medically recommended diets. Please advise at time of booking. We regret that we are unable to supply meals in accordance with strict religious requirements.
Do you have a frequent traveler program?
Yes, you can join our Travel Club at the end of your tour, by filling out the feedback questionnaire. Membership is free and as a Travel Club member you’ll have access to great promotional benefits and you are automatically entitled to a 5% discount on your next tour.
