Check with your insurance company. If additional coverage is advisable. We highly recommend travel and cancellation insurance.

Our tours are priced per person, double occupancy. There will be a single supplement charge based on availability. However, by choosing to share a room with another “single” you have the advantage of making a small savings and the pleasure that this companionship offers. If you are traveling on your own, we will do our best to find someone of similar preferences. When a roommate cannot be found, a supplement will be required at time of final payment.
