At certain peak periods duplicate departures may operate, and sometimes in reverse order; and hotels may vary from those stated on the itinerary pages. On tours that include cruises, the ship may be changed due to operational reasons. For departures in early and late season operated in cool weather conditions, 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 you believe your overall tour satisfaction may be diminished by

such limitations, please check with your Travel Agent before making your reservation. Emerald reserves the right to substitute) another vessel or motorcoach with another available in its fleet having that has the closest comparable features for all or part of the itinerary and also provide alternative accommodation, where necessary. Emerald is not liable to you for any variations in the tour itinerary caused by Force Majeure Events.

will make reasonable attempts to accommodate the special needs of its physically challenged guests to the extent it is able to do so. Emerald is not responsible for any denial of service by vessel operators, air carriers, hotels, restaurants or other Providers.

Medical costs are at the passenger's own expense. Due to the large number of passengers on board, Emerald cannot provide a personal escort for medical visits. We strongly recommend travel insurance.
