Passport & Visa Requirements
It is the passenger’s responsibility to ensure that all immigration requirements have been met. Please ensure that each person in your party has a passport that is valid and does not expire within six months of your planned date of return. In addition, it is now a requirement of some countries that your passport has at least two facing pages clear of any stamps/visas. If you are unsure please contact our office and we will be pleased to advise you.
Travel Documents
Travel documentation is normally available 14 days before your departure. Documents will usually include transportation tickets together with vouchers for each element booked.

Any special requests that you may have must be notified at the time of booking. All `special requests' are treated as requests and are not guaranteed by this Company or our suppliers.
