TOURS INCLUDE:
Luxury motor coach, fully equipped transportation. Excellent hotel accommodations, sightseeing, tours, admissions, and most meals as specified in itinerary including taxes and gratuities.

GRATUITIES:
As indicated, all gratuities are included on your tour with the exception of the customary gratuity to the tour guide and driver. In response to many of your requests for advice on what is considered customary, we offer you this information only as a guide:

A large part of the success of a tour is due to our drivers and escorts. We believe that a gratuity is In appreciation of the degree of service, attention to your needs and the personal attitude displayed toward your group. With that said, you can see why a gratuity does not lend itself very well to a standardized amount. However as an average and varying with your experience, you may wish to consider a per-person, per day gratuity of $2-$5 for the escort and driver.
