Western Discovery

English would be the official language of the guide, correct? No other language will be spoken?

We have checked the 18th December departure and unfortunately it is no longer available, so we will need to close this departure.

The child age restriction exists for a number of reasons, mainly safety and customer service. The U.S. are an expansive destination, especially in the west travel times are long between destinations. Stops cannot always be made in short succession, very often there are at least two hours between them. On these seat-in tours where mixed passenger groups from different cultural backgrounds follow a rigid daily program, passengers are getting up early, spend many hours per day traveling by coach, and may not go to bed till late. Typically, the experience with bringing smaller children has not been a positive one. This extends to the children, the parents/guardians, and their fellow passengers. It is difficult for a smaller child to follow instruction consistently; fellow passengers may feel they are disruptive to the tour. We did receive complaints to this end in the past. Additionally, there are concerns when it comes to emergency situations where all passengers need to be able to swiftly react to information given by the tour director. Therefore we are unable to accommodate 12 and 5 year old passengers on this particular tour unfortunately.

Hours in the coach per day varies based on itinerary. Some days have light travel, other days may require approximately 6-8 hours of travel time, including rest stops. The age guideline of 18-69 is not strict, and exceptions can be made for travelers outside this range, particularly for those who are active and fit.

A "confirmed" departure means the tour has met the minimum number of bookings required for it to operate, but it is not yet guaranteed. A "guaranteed" departure, however, means the tour will proceed regardless of any further booking changes or cancellations by other participants. Regarding the western discovery tour for the 3rd of July, it is a guaranteed departure.
