ABOUT OUR TOURS GROUP SIZE All tours featured in this brochure are group tours with fixed departure dates. The maximum group size varies from tour to tour ­ and can be anything from 10 to 16, depending on the type of tour and the transport and accommodation used and activities included. The actual number on any given departure date depends on the popularity of the tour, but rarely drops below 6 or 7. Most average 12 to 14 plus the Tour Leader. WHO TRAVELS ON OUR TOURS? Your travel companions could be from anywhere in the world, and could be from any background or walk of life. As we only offer English-speaking tours, a majority of them are likely to be from the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada or the US. One thing is certain ­ you will be travelling with some well-travelled, interesting and like-minded people who are bound to share your love for travel and desire to explore a different part of the world. AGE LIMITS The minimum age on all tours featured in this brochure is 14 years.The maximum age is usually 79, at the time of travel, unless travelling with a companion under the maximum age. However most of our travellers are aged between 25 and 55. ARE FLIGHTS INCLUDED? You can book most Explore tours on either a 'Flight Inclusive' or 'Land Only' basis. If you would like us to organise a flight for you, there are several options. Either we can try to get you on the group flight on which our prices are based, which generally departs from London, or we may be able to source a flight from your local airport in the UK if this is more convenient. We can also book regional flights from around the UK to link with flights from London, and arrange flight upgrades should you be interested. Whilst guide prices are shown for the 'Flight Inclusive' tours, they can vary for a number of reasons, and are subject to flight supplements, fuel surcharges and other taxes. For more details on flights and prices, please see p45-47. Booking on a 'Land-Only' basis allows you to make your own way to the tour joining point abroad. It may be that you have access to good one-off flight deals or have loyalty points with a certain airline that you wish to use. It is also a good way to book if you want to combine two or more tours or link with other independent travel. If you are booking 'Land Only' we strongly recommend that you do not purchase non-flexible connecting flights as they usually incur penalty charges in the event of a change to your itinerary.
