exciting and diverse cities beckon with their
colorful neighborhoods, eclectic architecture and
fascinating local culture and history the bustle
of New York City, the international charm of San
Francisco and Vancouver, and the non-stop action
of Las Vegas, to name a few. Venture south of
the border to explore the ancient civilizations
and culture of Mexico, or the diverse wildlife and
ecosystems of Costa Rica.

aspect of your vacation. We ensure you see,

device, supplementary oxygen tank or any other requirements. Passengers must advise Trafalgar of any special needs
and accommodations at the time of booking or as soon as the need for accommodation arises. A failure to provide
suffcient advance notice may result in Trafalgars inability to procure the requested accommodations. Trafalgar will not
impose eligibility criteria that either screen out or tend to screen out persons with disabilities from fully and equally
enjoying all goods, services, privileges, advantages or accommodations offered to individuals without disabilities.
Trafalgar reserves the right to impose requirements when necessary for the provision of the goods, services, privileges,
advantages or accommodations. There may be circumstances (compelling reasons) when traveling companions are
necessary to accompany disabled passengers. Passengers should consult with their personal physicians to determine
whether traveling is appropriate and whether a traveling companion is recommended. Trafalgar reserves the right to
impose safety requirements necessary for the safe operation of the tour. Trafalgar also reserves the right to exclude
any individual from participation in an activity if that individuals participation would result in a direct threat to health

eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level by reasonable modifcations to our policies, practices or procedures or
by the provision of appropriate auxiliary aids or services. If you fail to provide us with any physical, medical or special
needs, accommodations or requirements prior to the start of the tour, and it is determined, based on information you
should have provided that your continued participation in the tour poses a safety risk, you may be excluded from the
tour. In this event, you will be responsible for all costs associated with your departure from the tour. You agree to hold

Itineraryvariations: Trafalgar constantly strives to improve tour itineraries and features. If such improvements can
be made, or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control make changes necessary, we reserve the right to vary
itineraries and to substitute hotels. At certain peak periods duplicate departures may operate, and sometimes in reverse
order; hotels may also vary from those stated on the itinerary pages. On tours that include cruises, the ship may be
changed due to operational reasons. Departures in early and late season are potentially operated in cool weather
conditions. As a result, slight itinerary variations may occur, and certain activities may not be available due to seasonality
or weather conditions. Availability of certain activities may also be limited due to itinerary variations.
If your enjoyment may be diminished by such limitations, please check with your Travel Agent before making
your reservation.

operating organizations or service providers concerned will be liable for for any injury, illness or death or for any loss
or damages or claims whatsoever arising from any accident or incident, if the safety belt is not being worn at the time
of such accident or incident.

operating requirements or circumstances beyond its control. Trafalgar will, wherever possible, offer an alternative tour
of similar standard. If there is a difference in cost, it will be at the passengers expense. If an alternative tour is not
accepted by the tour participant within seven days, we will refund all monies paid to Trafalgar and will be under no
further obligation or liability. Trafalgar is not responsible for any additional costs/penalties incurred on travel
arrangements and air tickets purchased separately from the Air and Land inclusive package.

Denite Departures
Denite Departures are tours which have surpassed minimum
booking numbers, conrming operation. Once a tour reaches its
minimum passenger number it will become a Denite Departure,
identied on the Trafalgar website with a green check.
See www.trafalgartours.com for more information.
One of the great benets of escorted travel is the ease of traveling solo. Trafalgar
makes it simple by offering the following options:
Guaranteed Room Share
When traveling alone, we understand that some guests do not want to incur
the expense of an additional single room supplement. With this in mind, on the
majority of our itineraries, Trafalgar offers you the opportunity to purchase these
tours on a room sharing basis. We will accommodate you with a fellow passenger
of the same gender on a two-bedded basis (non-smoking rooms only). Please
note that, regrettably, we cannot guarantee that roommates will be of a similar
age group. Even so, it is an enjoyable way to make new friends and a positive way
to stretch your vacation budget further. If we fail to match you we will provide a
single room at no extra cost.
IMPORTANT: This option does not apply to extra night accommodation, any tour and
cruise combinations, or to the Hawaii, Alaska, Mexico and Costa Rica tours.
Single Supplement Value
If you prefer the privacy of your own room, youll appreciate our low single room
supplement. Please see the itinerary of your choice for the supplement.
IMPORTANT: Each tour has a limited number of single rooms and single occupancy may
be restricted to certain cabin categories on cruises.
single travelers
Travel together and save money
5 to 8 SAVE 5%: If a group of 5-8 people travel 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!
9 or more: If 9 or more people travel together, we offer attractive group
discounts based on the number of people traveling. In a group of 9 passengers,
1 traveler qualies for a 50% discount off the LAND-only portion of the tour. In a
group of 16 passengers, 1 traveler qualies for 100% discount off the LAND-only
portion of the tour.
IMPORTANT: Space is limited to one group per motorcoach. These discounts cannot be combined
with our Trafalgar Travel Club Discount, or Guaranteed Room Share. All passengers names must
be advised before the discount is applied. Does not apply to additional accommodation, airfares,
taxes & fees, ight supplements, airport transfers or any cruise portion of a tour.

League colleges by the Harriman Expedition that discovered them in 1899. This is
the only place in Alaska where youll be surrounded on three sides with owing
rivers of ice: Yale, Bryn Mawr and Vassar lining up the starboard and port with

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
Passports & Visas:
Passengers traveling across any USA, Canadian, Costa Rican or Mexican border must be in
possession of a valid machine-readable passport which must be valid at least 6 months beyond
the conclusion of the trip. It is the responsibility of each passenger to ensure they have a valid
machine-readable passport as well as any necessary visas. Please contact your Travel Agent or
applicable government authorities to obtain necessary travel information.
Travel Documents:
Please read the documents and tour literature which are sent to you approximately three
weeks prior to departure. They will contain advice and essential information to make
your vacation an enjoyable experience.
ITINERARY VARIATIONS:
During local or national vacations while traveling domestically or internationally, certain facilities
such as museums, sightseeing tours and shopping may be limited. In such instances, and
whenever possible, slight itinerary adjustments may be made by Trafalgar to minimize
inconvenience to our guests. Departures in the early and late season are potentially operated in
cool weather conditions. Lakes may be frozen, slight itinerary variations may occur and certain
activities may not be available due to seasonality or weather conditions. Such restrictions are
beyond our control, but should not detract from the touring experience.
Planning Your Budget:
You are advised to do this well in advance and be sure to allocate funds for special events
such as theater, celebration meals, shopping and side trips, and most importantly additional
optional tours (available through your Tour Director.)
