Because many advance logistical arrangements have been made prior to the running of our tours, we must adhere to our cancellation policy (below). Travel Guard insurance, our carrier, will reimburse your tour fees and airfare if you cannot travel due to personal illness, or if an immediate family member becomes ill, preventing your planned travel. Travel Guard insurance can also cover any delays and interruptions due to weather or air schedule disruptions.

In addition, please be aware that many insurance policies do not cover illness and accident expenses outside of the U.S., and Medicare does NOT cover any such expenses at all. In light of this, we strongly recommend trip cancellation and supplemental insurance.


By clicking on the "Purchase Travel Insurance" link above, you will be taken to the TravelGuard site which will guide you through the purchase process.
