At certain peak periods multiple departures may operate, and sometimes in reverse order, in which case hotels may vary from those stated on the itinerary pages. London Olympics 2012, Religious Festivals, Holidays, Trade fairs (e.g. Amsterdam IBC Congress) or other events (e.g. Venice Film Festival on Lido) occassionally cause changes from scheduled hotels. In these and in other cases substitute hotels may be used and will be of a similar standard and location whenever possible. On tours that include cruises the ship may be changed due to operational reasons. Ports of call on Mediterrannean cruises may be subject to alterations if weather conditions do not permit docking.

In such instances, and whenever possible, slight itinerary changes are made by Trafalgar to minimise inconvenience to our passengers.

Similarly, holidays, closing days and other circumstances may necessitate a change of the day of the week for scheduled highlight dinners, sightseeing or other activities Extended stays: If you have arranged with us to remain at a destination before or after your tour, please understand your stay will be at your sole expense as is the transfer to either the hotel or airport.
