STAYS WITH STORIES

HIDDEN GEMS

The places you’ll stay

The secrets you’ll unlock

We go out of our way to hand select exceptional hotels for every trip, including our extra special overnights, that we call Stays With Stories. Whether it’s feeling like royalty in a 12th-century Welsh castle complete with turrets and a moat, or getting outback at a real cowboy ranch in Montana, these are just some of our Stays with Stories that families love when they travel with us. More than just a bed for the night, each of these has a story to share, with its own special spot in the community and local history. And best of all, organized for you, by us, so you don’t have to worry about a single thing.

Unlocking travel secrets and sharing unique experiences that are beyond your wildest travel dreams are what our passionate Travel Directors do best.

They love bringing travel experiences to life for our guests of all ages and they love what they do.

They’ll surprise you with locals only secret spots that you would never have the chance to discover on your own. We don’t want to say too much — that would ruin the surprises, but here’s a tip from our very own Travel Director, Jack.

320 Guest Ranch, MONTANA, USA

You’ll love this overnight experience at this traditional Western Ranch with the beautiful Montana ranges as your backdrop. Settle in for a night of fun at this 1890s homestead, from a wagon ride, a delicious Western feast alongside cowgirls and cowboys and dancing the night away. Wake up to a day of adventure including horse riding into the wild with a local horse wrangler, or a thrilling white water rafting trip down the Gallatin river, all before lunch back at the ranch.

Ye haw!

On one of my Castle and Kilts Family Experience trips, I gave each of my younger guests a turn at being ‘Travel Director for the day’. They were given a topic, they prepared the night before and then were able to talk on the mic in front of the group. They got points for outright lies! Some of the talks were the funniest moment of the trip.

Our family trips are designed to engage travelers of all ages from grandparents to the grandchildren. They also provide a wonderful opportunity for the young travelers to make new friends from all over the world.

It’s such a treat to see.

The best experience is seeing the reaction of younger guests; seeing their eyes opening at the wonderment of the world and knowing that this is the beginning of their travel adventures is always memorable.

Here is just one example of our 40,000+ reviews via our third party quality assurance partner Feefo.

I can’t believe we fitted so much in we could never have done that much if we were planning and doing the trip on our own. We did all the known highlights and touristy things in each location, but also got to experience things we’d never have known to seek out ourselves and we had such a range of food and cultural experiences - unique to the different locations we visited. We met some amazing families and having other children around really helped keep our daughter interested and engaged. Doing most of the optional extras really does help the whole experience so I’m glad we planned for this. Absolutely loved this trip.

FAMILY VALUES AT THE HEART NO MATTER WHERE IN THE WORLD YOU TRAVEL, YOU CAN BE ASSURED THAT FAMILY VALUES ARE AT THE HEART OF YOUR EXPERIENCE.

72 years young, Trafalgar is the founding travel brand of The Travel Corporation (TTC), the world’s leading travel company. A family business, in its fourth generation, I am humbled to continue this legacy as the CEO of Trafalgar.

It all started a century ago when my grandfather, in a small hotel in South Africa, made a commitment to deliver exceptional service. This marked the beginning of our family motto: ‘in pursuit of excellence’. It is this very ethos which fuelled

my uncle Stanley Tollman, to take this humble beginning from a single small hotel and build the world’s largest privately-owned travel company.

Today, Stanley Tollman remains the Chairman of Trafalgar and, in his 80’s, works every day to drive this brand to new heights. I am privileged to work alongside him and witness the unrelenting vision firsthand which ensures that each of our guests experience personal, honest and heartfelt service on and off trip.

It’s the founding philosophy of excellence that remains our guiding light and permeates everything we do. Trafalgar today is the most awarded travel brand, with 80+ awards. As I proudly look back on Trafalgar’s 72-year journey, I am excited as I can clearly see how the combination of our roots and our passion inspire us to challenge ourselves and continue to craft unique personal experiences for our guests; connecting them to a diverse view of the world. It’s the genuine care for our travelers, our teams and the places we visit that unites us to deliver simply the best vacations.

In 2019 we will mark an important milestone, a decade of connecting travelers to the places we love through Trafalgar’s pioneering exclusive Be My Guest experiences. It was our belief, a decade ago, that ‘breaking bread’ with locals gave our guests a unique perspective of their culture and lifestyle. It’s these moments of connection where we are reminded of how

Trafalgar is an active partner and supporter of the TreadRight Foundation.

An initiative supported by The Travel Corporation’s (TTC) family of brands, the Foundation is a not- for-profit organization working to Make Travel Matter.

The TreadRight mission is clear, to have a positive impact on the people and communities we visit, to protect wild and marine life, and to care for the planet we all call home.

we all share a common thread, and we gain perspective on how small this big world really is. And in doing so, we taste the real flavors and savor the very last drop.

At TTC we take our responsibility and the privilege of being able to traverse continents, countries and communities personally. We want to ensure that we are crafting vacations for every place, taste and pace, with our family values at the heart of every experience. This care factor permeates everything we do: from not only looking after our guests but also looking after the planet.

JoinTrafalgar program to ensure we work collaboratively to Make Travel Matter.

And so, from my family to yours, I hope you join us and I wish you happy travels full of joy, happiness & rich connections in 2019.

Gavin Tollman Trafalgar CEO

We are relentless in our consideration of how we can positively impact the places we visit. Trafalgar and our 30 sister brands, aim to not just tread light, but rather tread right. A decade ago my cousin Brett, TTC’s CEO, established the TreadRight Foundation to achieve this goal and a number of years ago, we started the

By providing grants to organizations that encourage sustainability, TreadRight hopes to maintain the natural attractions, unique heritages and native species across the world that define each region.

globally, TreadRight’s respect and care for our planet is far reaching.

To date TreadRight has helped support some 50-plus sustainable tourism projects worldwide with many more on the horizon.

From global initiatives such as a program to support artisanal enterprise, to a fund to save the Big Cats in Africa, through to local grass roots initiatives such as the ban of single-use plastics in TTC’s regional offices across all locations

YOUR GUIDED VACATION BOOKING Trafalgar Tours of Canada Ltd is the ‘Sales Company’; Trafalgar Tours Limited – Great Britain and Europe Vacations; and Destination America Inc – North and Central America Vacations are the ‘Operators’; collectively these companies are referred to as ‘Trafalgar’.

Your agreement is with Trafalgar and a contract is formed when you make a reservation with us that we accept.

Enrollment in and payment for a guided vacation shall constitute acceptance by the guest of the terms and conditions in this brochure. These cannot be varied except in writing by an officer of the Company.

The invalidity of any provisions herein shall not affect the validity of any other provisions. The agreement shall be construed as though the invalid provision was not contained herein and was replaced with an enforceable provision as similar as possible to the original provision.

Disclaimer Travel is personal and each individual’s goals and experiences may differ. Trafalgar will not be bound by, or liable for, any description, photograph, representation or warranty made by or provided by any independent third party sales representative, Travel Agent, or other person or entity relating to any vacation offered

by Trafalgar.

Departure Date The departure date is the date indicated on the booking confirmation.

Security Security is a major concern to all of us and the situation globally is constantly changing. Events around the world, coupled with the “Travel Advisories” put out by various governments, may at times necessitate changes to the accommodations and itinerary or even trip cancellation. You must accept these risks involved in travel to any country that may experience security difficulties and accept responsibility for your own travel decisions.

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE GUIDED VACATION PRICE Intra-trip Travel By private motorcoach, trains, cruises and ferries (see itineraries).

Air Transportation Not included unless otherwise outlined in each itinerary page price panel. Please be advised that due to transportation security, Airlines will collect the necessary required information from guests.

For more information please visit: catsa.gc.ca/home.

Guided Vacation By air-conditioned luxury motorcoaches. On some regional vacations and sightseeing trips, motorcoaches without toilet facilities are used. If due to circumstances beyond our control motorcoaches are used otherwise than as advertised, a refund of $10 per person will be made.

Toilets may be affected by higher altitude or extreme weather conditions such as freezing temperatures and for the comfort of those on board the motorcoach the toilets may have to be closed. In these circumstances, additional rest breaks will be incorporated into the itinerary.

Hotel Accommodations Prices are per person, based on two persons sharing with private bath or shower. Triple and quad rooms may be available on selected vacations in limited numbers. Triple rooms will often feature one foldaway bed plus one double bed. Three adults may find these rooms small and suitcase space slightly restricted.

They are generally more suitable for two adults and one child. Quad occupancy is based on four guests sharing one room with two beds and may be used only for two adults and two children aged 17 or younger. Quad rooms are only available on Family Experiences with a limit of 2 adults in that room. Accommodations is typically based on two-bedded rooms with a private bath. Rollaway beds are not included in either the triple or quad prices.

Every effort has been made to reserve two-bed rooms; however, on some occasions, rooms with one double bed may be the only choice available. These rooms will be allocated to single travelers and couples first; other rooms may feature a single bed and rollaway bed, murphy bed or sleeper sofa. Special room requests (adjacent, connecting or lower-floor rooms, as examples) must be made at time of booking. Special room requests are not guaranteed and are based on availability at time of check-in. Many hotels are 100% smoke-free, including all guest rooms, restaurants, lounges, meeting rooms and public spaces. Smoking in a non-smoking room may result in a fine.

Substitute hotels may be used sometimes. We try to use hotels of similar standard. Hotel Frequent Traveler program

points are not earned with hotels on Trafalgar vacations.

Note hotel room sizes, standards, facilities and services provided may vary from country to country and region to region and are often local in style.

Free WiFi Internet Service Complimentary WiFi service is available in many Trafalgar hotel guestrooms and/or the public areas of most hotels. In most countries, complimentary WiFi is also provided on-board the motorcoaches except in remote locations. The WiFi on the motorcoaches uses the cellular phone network and as a result the connection will be slower than standard broadband and at times may not be available. Audio and Video streaming is not available using motorcoach WiFi. Please note that it is not available on train trips, or when the main Trafalgar motorcoach is not being used, such as on transfer motorcoaches and other local services. For further information on which countries WiFi is offered in as well as daily data allowances please refer to the Trafalgar website trafalgar.com/wifi.

In the unlikely event that there are fifteen guests or less traveling on a departure, Trafalgar reserves the right to operate this departure on an individual basis with private transfers and individual arrangements. Please refer to the individual guided vacation. Itinerary extensions are operated on a locally hosted basis using Englishspeaking Local Host services.

Meals Meals are included as detailed on itineraries.

Sightseeing Experiences, entrance fees and an Englishspeaking Local Specialist (when required) are included as detailed in the itinerary pages.

If the total guided vacation price increases by more than 7%, guests will have the option to cancel the guided vacation within 7 days of notification of the surcharge without penalty. All prices are in Canadian Dollars unless specified.

Other Fees and Taxes Taxes and fees are subject to change without notice and will be confirmed at time of booking. Any additional fees charged by the airlines such as baggage handling, seat selections, and/or any other services are the sole responsibility of the guest(s).

Guided Vacation Participation On all guided vacations children under 5 years of age are not eligible to travel. Children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult, who will be responsible for their welfare and supervision. Alcoholic beverages will not be served to guests under the legal age for alcohol consumption in the country being visited. Minors under age 18 traveling to certain foreign countries must be accompanied by both parents or have a notarized letter of consent signed by the parent(s) not traveling.

- Guests must ensure they are medically and physically able to travel.

- Trafalgar may impose safety requirements. Trafalgar may exclude an individual from participating in a guided vacation or an activity if the individual’s participation poses a threat to the health or safety of others. This decision, made solely by Trafalgar, to exclude an individual will be based on an individualized assessment based on reasonable judgment that relies on current medical evidence or on the best available objective evidence to determine the nature, duration and severity of the risk, the probability that potential injury will occur and whether reasonable modifications of policies, practices or procedures will mitigate the risk. No refunds will be given if the decision is made to exclude a guest.

- Trafalgar does not provide personal devices (such as wheelchairs, hearing aids or prescription eye glasses) or services of a personal nature (such as eating, toileting or dressing). A traveler who requires services of a personal nature (eating, toileting or dressing, as examples) should strongly consider bringing a companion to provide such assistance and must understand that other travelers, Travel Directors and Trafalgar Staff will not be available for such purposes.

- Regrettably, motorized scooters are not allowed on guided vacations.

- Trafalgar does not employ medical personnel. Any necessary medical attention must be sought at a local facility, if available, at the guest’s expense. Trafalgar is not responsible or liable for losses or costs incurred due to unavailability of medical services, or medical services obtained whilst on vacation, or for the quality of the care or services received. Medical care in other countries is not always comparable to care that you may receive in your local area. You are encouraged to purchase medical insurance that will cover you whilst on vacation. Your regular health insurance benefits may not apply abroad.

- In purchasing your vacation, you attest that you are physically fit for it. If you have concerns please request additional details about your journey from your Travel Agent or Trafalgar.

- Some guided vacations include rough terrain, extensive walking over cobblestone streets, uneven sidewalk, steps and/or locations which may not be easily accessible or accessible by wheelchair. During the guided vacation, Trafalgar may make arrangements with carriers, hotels and other independent suppliers to provide travel services. These parties are independent entities which Trafalgar does not control. Trafalgar cannot guarantee disability access or accommodations for guests traveling on international guided vacations.

Many Optional Experiences are operated by independent third party suppliers, not Trafalgar. These are not part of the vacation package provided by us. Your contract will be with the operator of the experience. We are not responsible for providing of the experience, or anything that happens during the experience. Some experiences involve outdoor activities and/or can be physically demanding. You must make your own decisions about experiences and participate only in activities that suit

your physical ability: we suggest that you speak with your medical provider if you have questions about your abilities. We recommend you check whether any insurance you have also includes your participation in adventure activities you may undertake.

Trafalgar may, in its sole discretion, decline booking any guest or remove any guest who cannot comply or refuses to comply with Trafalgar’s terms and conditions. If this occurs, you are responsible for the cost of travel back to your hometown and Trafalgar shall not be liable for your losses and no refund shall be provided.

Behavior We are here to provide the best services possible but in doing so we will not tolerate abusive or aggressive behavior from our guests. We will refuse to deal with and may terminate the vacation of guests who assault our Company Representatives or who are abusive or aggressive.

When you make a booking, you accept responsibility for the proper conduct of all members of your party during your stay. We reserve the right at any time to terminate the travel arrangements and/or cease to deal with any party member(s) whose behavior, in the reasonable opinion of us or our suppliers, may cause danger, upset, disruption or distress to anyone else or damage to property. Full cancellation charges will apply and no refund will be made. We shall have no obligation to pay compensation or meet any costs or expenses (including but not limited to alternative accommodations and return transportation arrangements) guest may incur as a result of the travel arrangements being terminated.

If you damage the accommodations in which you are staying or any property, you must reimburse the accommodations provider or property owner concerned for the cost of the damage before the end of your stay if the cost has been established by then or as soon as it has been established if later. You must indemnify us for the full amount of any claim (also including legal costs) made against us. Criminal proceedings may be instigated.

Trafalgar is not responsible for any costs incurred concerning a guest removed from a guided vacation or aircraft, ship or train. Guests agree not to hold Trafalgar or any of its related entities liable for any actions taken under these terms and conditions.

Young Traveler Discount The Young Traveler must be under age 18 on the departure date to be eligible for the discount, and must be accompanied by an adult, sharing a double (triple or quad) room. Only two Young Traveler Discounts per room are permitted except on North and South America itineraries where the limit is three Young Traveler Discounts per room. This discount can be combined with our ‘Book Together’ discount. The Young Traveler Discount may not be applicable on certain itineraries or regions and applies to the land only portion of a trip. Please see ‘Ways to Save’ for details.

Itinerary Variations Trafalgar strives to improve guided vacation itineraries, services and features. If improvements can be made, or if circumstances beyond our control make changes necessary, we reserve the right to vary itineraries and to substitute hotels. At certain peak periods multiple departures may operate, sometimes in reverse order; hotels may vary from those stated on the itinerary pages. On guided vacations which include cruises, the ship may be changed for operational reasons. Departures in early and late season are potentially operated in cool weather conditions. As a result, itinerary variations may occur. Certain activities may not be precisely as described or may not be available due to seasonality or weather conditions. We will try to notify you or your Travel Agent of changes. If your enjoyment may be diminished by such limitations, please check with us or your Travel Agent before making a reservation.

In the event that we make a major change to your vacation (which does not include, for example, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodations to another of the same standard, or alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 12 hours) we will inform you or your Travel Agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure date. You will either have the choice of accepting the change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us if available (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value, but these booking terms and conditions will continue to apply to any alternative booking), or canceling your booked vacation and receiving a full refund of all monies paid.

Trafalgar’s ‘Be My Guest’/ ‘Connect with Locals’ experiences are unique and take place in singular locations. In the unlikely event that our local hosts are unable to welcome Trafalgar guests, Trafalgar will attempt to find an alternate experience or a highlight meal will be provided in place of the ‘Be My Guest’/ ‘Connect with Locals’ experience.

Vacations & Changes During local or national vacations, certain facilities such as museums, sightseeing trips and shopping may be limited or unavailable. In such instances itinerary changes are made by Trafalgar seeking to reduce inconvenience to guests. Such changes are deemed not to be a major change to the itinerary, and no compensation will be payable to guests. Vacations, closing days and other circumstances may necessitate a change of the day of the week for scheduled regional meals, sightseeing or other activities. If you feel your enjoyment might be diminished by any of these circumstances please check with the respective national tourist office before selecting a specific departure date.

Extended stays If you arranged with us to remain at a destination before or after your guided vacation, your stay

will be at your sole expense as is the transfer to either the hotel or airport (except for Greece). Please see the ‘Extend your Stay’ section for a list of pre- and postguided vacation accommodations. Space is limited and if available is for up to three nights before and/or after each guided vacation. Breakfast and luggage handling is not included unless otherwise noted. Trafalgar does not provide complimentary transfers for guests booking preand post-night accommodations. However, inexpensive airport transfers can be purchased from Trafalgar. If your extra night accommodations is not the hotel where your guided vacation begins or ends, you will be responsible for your transfer arrangements at your own expense.

For your comfort Trafalgar operates a daily seat rotation system and enforces a strict no smoking (including e-cigarettes) and no alcohol policy on board motorcoaches. Regular comfort stops are made on traveling days. Many hotels, restaurants, trains, cruises and other venues are 100% smoke free.

Guided Vacation Cancellation Trafalgar reserves the right to cancel or re-schedule any guided vacation departure in any circumstances, including in accordance with operating requirements or circumstances beyond its control. If cancellation is made by Trafalgar any time prior to the departure date of the guided vacation except when you failed to pay the final balance on time, Trafalgar will either refund the amount received for the guided vacation booking, or offer a comparable vacation if available. Trafalgar will refund any difference in price if the alternative is of a lower price however, the guest will be responsible for additional costs if the alternative is priced higher. Trafalgar is not responsible for other travel arrangements affected due to our cancellations and is not liable for any cancellation penalties incurred on other travel arrangements including air tickets.

Travel Insurance Trafalgar recommends that all guests purchase comprehensive Travel Insurance. Certain countries have a requirement for foreign visitors to have valid medical insurance on entry. Trafalgar cannot be held responsible for denied entry if a guest is unable to provide details to authorities of insurance or denial of entry for any reason.
