VISAS: American and Canadian travelers going to Egypt, Jordan, Kenya and/or Syria require visas. Kenyan and Syrian visas should be obtained from those countries' consulates or embassies before you depart on your trip. Allow plenty of time for this procedure. Egyptian and Jordanian visas may be obtained in advance from the countries' consulates, or at the airport when entering Egypt or Jordan. Visa fees are not included in our tour prices, and must be paid by each traveler.

 

 

AIRLINES: For our tours which include international airfares, it is our usual practice to send our valued clients on these recognized international airlines: Air France, Alitalia,  EgyptAir, Olympic Airways, or Turkish Airlines. However, we reserve the right to use any IATA accredited scheduled international airline.

GETTING ALONG ABROAD: Participants in our tours are encouraged to travel with an open mind, active curiosity, and thoughtful courtesy for others. We believe that it is important to maintain a positive attitude towards your fellow tour participants and also towards the people of the host country, towards their culture and way of life.

Accommodations and meals, particularly outside the large cities, may be quite different from what you're used to at home. Enjoy them in the spirit of adventure, which is the reward of foreign travel.

TRAVEL INSURANCE: We strongly recommend that you obtain travel insurance. Policies are available through our office or your local insurance agent to cover loss or damage to your luggage, medical needs, certain travel-related accidents, and expenses if you must cancel your trip. Please request a copy of our insurance brochure.

 

Guides:

Over the years we've asked our returning travelers "What made
your trip exceptional?" The top answer is always "service," and we've taken
that to heart.

The guides on our tours are the best possible people for the
job: experienced, knowledgeable, professional and personable, exceeding all
national regulations for qualification.

On our Egypt tours and Nile cruises, our guides are certified Egyptologists
licensed by the government. All have university degrees, many of them
Ph.D.'s. In Morocco, guides on our camel caravans and desert tours are local
experts on the Sahara and Bedouin traditions. In Turkey, our city guides are
government-licensed members of the tour guides' guild, and the captains of
our yachts have captains' certification as well as long experience in
sailing the waters of the Turquoise Coast.

We realize that the guide is the key to an enjoyable, memorable travel
experience, so we provide the best because we know you want to Travel in
Style.

Tour Consultaion with Tom Brosnahan:
We want you to get the most out of your trip to Turkey, so when we receive payment from you for any of our tours to Turkey, we'd like to send you--with our compliments--your own copy of the comprehensive Lonely Planet guidebook to Turkey by Tom Brosnahan, the best-selling guide to that country.

You'll enjoy your trip even more if you can interact with the Turkish people at least a little bit. For that you'll need to know a few words and phrases of their language, so when we receive your tour payment we'll send you a copy of the Lonely Planet Turkish Phrasebook by Tom Brosnahan.

Best of all, we'd like to offer you the chance to speak with Mr. Brosnahan personally (or by email, of you prefer) and to ask him any questions you may have about your tour, or about travel in Turkey.

Mr. Brosnahan lived in Turkey for several years, speaks fluent Turkish, and has traveled there almost annually for the past 33 years. He is truly one of the world's most knowledgeable experts about travel in Turkey.

As a valued participant on any of our tours to Turkey, please be our guest for a complimentary pre-trip consultation of up to 20 minutes with Tom Brosnahan. Ask him about your special interests or concerns, or have him help you plan for your trip.

 

 

 

(You may extend your consultation beyond 20 minutes if you like by paying $1.25 for each additional minutes; but we offer our tour clients the first 20 minutes at no extra charge, with our compliments.)

. Please ask us for details when you make your tour reservations.

We thank you for your interest, and we look forward to providing you with the highest quality, best value travel experience on your first tour, and on many tours thereafter. You'll see the difference when you Travel in Style with us in Turkey!
