Note on Prices

From 1st July 2008 balance payments made by credit card (e.g. MasterCard, Visa Credit) are subject to a 2% transaction charge. There is no transaction charge if you pay by debit card (e.g. Maestro, Visa Debit).


As a result of the recent well-publicised escalating price of oil, airlines have been announcing their own fuel increases. All our prices are subject to these fuel increases and we are currently in the process of updating the website to incorporate these. During this time please be aware that whilst the majority of our tours have this price included already there will be some exceptions where it will be added at the final online booking stage, but the price we confirm at the time of booking, during the online booking process or over the telephone, is the price we guarantee.
