There are some things you can only know if you\u2019ve travelled with Trafalgar. From those surprise moments with your Travel Director to the secret perks of our VIT guests and our one-of-a-kind experiences, our past guests are well-clued into the Trafalgar ways. And with a community of over five million Trafalgar past guests, we knew there had to be some common threads between you all. So we turned to our Facebook page<\/a> and asked our guests to finish this question: You know you\u2019re a Trafalgar past guest when\u2026 <\/strong>Here\u2019s what they had to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know you\u2019re a Trafalgar past guest when\u2026 You can\u2019t stop coming back<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

They say once you travel with Trafalgar, you can\u2019t stop\u2026 And it\u2019s true! Our Trafalgar past guests return again and again to travel with us, and they often travel with the same past guests and Travel Directors because they loved it so much the first time! We love them right back with our Very Important Traveller (VIT) club<\/a>. Everyone who travels with Trafalgar (or our Travel Corporation sister brands) becomes a VIT, with exclusive access to savings and deals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facebook comments from our Trafalgar guests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Greg Holland <\/strong>– You continue to meet up with friends you met on your Trafalgar tour 10 years after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No tour director, even river cruises included, has surpassed the time spent under Emile\u2019s guidance. And many from the group still keep in touch!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
