When will my booking be confirmed?
Once we receive your deposit, your holiday will be confirmed. We will also confirm any additional arrangements such as pre- and post-tour accommodation and travel insurance. This can vary depending on the destination and type of holiday you have booked with us.
Can special requests be arranged?
Please advise us of any medical requirements, special meal requests, special needs or mobility impairment at time of booking.
Are there any health precautions or vaccinations that I need?
We recommend you see your doctor at six to eight weeks prior to travel for advice and to allow time for any necessary vaccinations. Please remember to take your itinerary with you and ensure you purchase appropriate travel insurance at the time of booking.
What are the luggage restrictions on tour?
Depending on the type of holiday, flights, touring and cruises you have booked, luggage allowances vary. Ask your travel consultant at time of booking or refer to your booking confirmation.
How far in advance are flights available to book?
Airlines release their flight schedules 299 days in advance.
I am a solo traveller. Do I have to pay a single supplement?
Travel at 60 continues to work hard to source solo traveller holidays. We also work closely with operators who will pair you with another solo travel, as we understand that some solo travellers would happily share a room on tour to avoid paying an additional supplement.
If you are a solo traveller who is willing to share on a group tour, please let us know so we can explore options with travel operators willing to pair you with a solo traveller of the same gender on your tour, saving you both the Single Hotel Room Option cost.
What are the meal abbreviations on some itineraries?
B = Breakfast, L = Lunch, D = Dinner.
