KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
Know Before You Go...
E urope may appear overwhelming for a first-time visitor, or even a seasoned traveler. The following information
will help prepare you for your vacation:
Passport/Documents
Your passport must be current and valid for at least six months past
your return date. Passports required for US citizens traveling to Europe
for stays of less than 90 days. A passport and Visa are necessary for
travel to Russia (restricted to less than 30 days). A passport and onward/
return ticket are necessary for travel to Croatia (less than 90 days).
Currency
The Euro is the currency for most European nations (major
exceptions are the U.K., Switzerland and Scandinavia). ATM’s are
prevalent, and are usually your best source for cash at the most current
exchange rate.
Adapters and Converters
European voltage is higher (220v vs 110v) than that in the United States.
A continental plug adapter and voltage converter are necessary.
Phones and Calling Cards
Every country has a unique country code following a plus sign (i.e. +39
for Italy). Instead of area codes, all countries use city codes that
begin with zero. Some U.S. phone cards offer international service in
Europe. Low cost cell phones may be purchased in any European
countries, and some US cell phone service providers offer overseas
service for higher rates.
Temperature
Europe records its temperatures in Celsius. To convert to an
approximate Fahrenheit temperature, double the Celsius and add 30.
Time and Date
• The 24-hour clock is used to denote timetables. To convert to U.S.
time for 13:00 and over, subtract 12 and add “pm”. For example,
18:00 is 6:00 pm.
• Dates are written with the day coming before the month. For
example, Christmas is 25-12-08.
• Greenwich Mean Time (UK) is 5 hours, and Continental Europe is 6
hours ahead of Eastern-Standard Time.
Tipping
A customary European tip is 10-15%. However, many places include
service charges in the bill, in which case no additional tip is expected.
Packing for Your Trip
Check with your airline for luggage weight restrictions, as many local
European carriers have their own rules. Your primary bag should be
relatively light and not exceed 25 inches.
Clothing
Temperatures can fluctuate, so be prepared to dress in layers. Be aware
that some sites, such as the Vatican, enforce strict dress codes.

Travel Hints
Customer Care
Within Europe, Travel Impressions provides 24-hour service for all
countries. Our European customer service can provide assistance:
Amex + 44 (0) 20 7633 6240 Monday-Friday (9 am to 5 pm U.K. time),
ER Travel + 44 (0) 20 8550 7174 (all other times).
Telephone Numbers
The phone numbers on your vouchers include a country code and the
local number. You do not need to dial the country code while you are in
that particular country.
Transfers
If your arrival is delayed or changed at the last minute, please call the
local transfer company listed on your vouchers. Departure transfers
should be confirmed 48 hours before traveling. Please note that in
some cities, transfer companies are not available by telephone over
the weekend.
Vouchers and Sightseeing
Dates on your vouchers are the start dates from which tours are valid.
If you wish to take a tour on a Monday, please contact the local
sightseeing company earlier, as they are often closed on weekends. If
you are traveling over a weekend, contact them from the U.S. before
your departure. All phone numbers are printed on your vouchers.
Rail Tickets
If you booked a rail ticket or pass with your package, make sure you
have a separate ticket in your documents package. Vouchers alone are
not valid for rail travel.
To-Do List
• Travel with credit cards and an ATM card.
• Keep a record of important numbers for credit cards, ATM cards and
travelers checks in a separate location.
• Make two copies of your banks cards, credit cards, driver’s license,
passport and return airline ticket. Keep one at home, bring one with you.
• Leave an itinerary with a close family member or neighbor.
• If you are going to a warm destination, bring strong sunscreen and a
hat. Excessive sun exposure has ruined many vacations.
• If traveling with young children, take along play activities for the
airport and plane ride.
• Medications, jewelry and other valuables should be hand-
carried, not placed in checked luggage.
• Place your airline tickets and other valuables in your hotel’s safe
deposit box.
• Make sure your luggage has identification both inside and out.
• Pack the following items: voltage converter and adapter plugs;
calculator (for converting currency); camera with extra film, memory
and rain gear.
• Check with your airline several days before your departure date to
reconfirm your flight. Do the same before your return flight.
• Call your airline before leaving for the airport to check on any last
minute delays.
• Due to increased security, arrive at the airport early.

Kingdom, you’ll
discover an unsurpassed richness of history – from the Romans to
the Royals. Heritage and legacy lie down every path, and
medieval castles, imposing fortresses and peerless museums
will leave you exhilarated and inspired.

England is a land blessed with gently rolling hills, cool

rivers and verdant forests – an expanse of green from the
North Sea to the English Channel. The celebrated Lake
District is among the most beautiful places on earth, with
glacial lakes shimmering in the muted North Sea sun.

But it’s the cities of Britain that will truly capture your
imagination – from the stately grandeur of London to the
charming university halls of Cambridge, from the medieval
streets of ancient York to Stratford-upon-Avon, where
Shakespeare’s spirit lives on for all eternity.

Journey to the enchanting north where the immensity of Scotland’s starkly

dramatic highlands will astound you. Delight in Edinburgh, a masterpiece of architectural
glory, and experience the fascinating Loch Ness, as beautiful as it is mysterious.

Rugged Wales is an emerald-green gem whose charming traditions and stunning countryside
go hand-in-hand.
7

In every corner of the United Kingdom, you’ll walk in the footsteps of greatness – and delight
in the splendor of lush, natural beauty.

lies a network of formal rooms, offices and a large security detail that controls all access. The building is so
well defended that the Prime Minister himself does not have a key!

been a tantalizing
destination for travelers yearning to investigate the richness of French
culture. France is awash in beauty, from its elegant architecture and
delectable cuisine, to its countless artistic masterpieces.

Paris has always been the spiritual center of France, where the
iconic Eiffel Tower, the incomparable Louvre Museum, and unlimited
shopping possibilities greet the traveler.

Even more alluring sights, sounds and tastes await those who choose
to travel outside of this capital city.

Versailles is the epitome of Royal French opulence, and the former home of Louis XIV. The Loire
Valley offers an astonishing array of castles and amazing architectural creations. Burgundy is
famous for its unsurpassed wines and rolling hills of green. And Chartres is a UNESCO World
Heritage Site that is an inspiring pilgrimage destination for millions of the faithful every year.

The South of France and Provence offer sun-drenched towns, miles of beaches and a culture
all its own.

Wherever you travel in France, you’ll be captivated by both stunning natural beauty of the country
and magnificent aesthetic creativity of its people.

The north is a wonderland of clear lakes and imposing snow-capped mountains.

Tuscany unfolds with lavish villas and quaint farmhouses scattered about rolling
hills and pastures. And the southern beaches are filled with days of endless
sunshine and golden warmth.

Italian cities are veritable storehouses of artistic and historical brilliance. Venice’s
canals serve as a sparkling backdrop for architectural grandeur. The artistic treasures of
Florence include extraordinary sculptures by Michelangelo, Bernini and Raphael. Rome’s glory includes the
awe-inspiring Coliseum and Michelangelo’s marvel - the Sistine Chapel, tucked away within the Vatican’s
regal halls. Milan is the place where fashion rules, the Last Supper defies time inside the unassuming
church of Santa Maria della Grazie, and the Duomo is at the center of it all.

The Islands of Italy sparkle like jewels across the bays of the mainland, and the ancient land of Sicily
stands as a testament to its many occupiers from Greek to Norman, Arab to Byzantine.

In addition to the sites, travelers will find unsurpassed cuisine and incomparable shopping. A trip to
Italy is more than just a getaway - it’s an adventure into true cultural splendor.

DON’T MISS: Rome’s Capitoline Museums were the world’s first public museums, and their
history can be traced back to 1471. The three buildings that make up the complex are part of the
famous Capitoline Hill area of Michelangelo’s design. They house many priceless archaeological
and artistic treasures, including a statue of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius- one of the only
equestrian bronzes to have survived since antiquity.

such agreement is in writing and signed by an officer of Operator. At any time, the
Operator may decline, for any reason, any person as a participant on a trip (or
option) whereupon the Operator’s only obligation shall be to refund such person
that portion of payment allocable to the unused services.
CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY: The right to a refund if a participant

Operator within 14 days after completion of the trip. Operator will remit any
refund to the participant(s) within 14 days after receipt of the cancellation
request. Failure to submit your written request within 14 days could limit
Operator’s ability to resolve your request with the Supplier. If your notice is
received, your liquidated damages (per person) will be: Once payment is
received - $50.00 per person plus any supplier fees. For holiday programs and
certain travel periods – higher penalties apply. During selected holidays, special

supplier fees. All appropriate receipts and documentation must accompany the
refund request. No refund will be made for features the participant opts not to
use. “No show” penalties could be up to 100% of the airfare and 50% of the
hotel/land. The rights and remedies made available herein are in addition to any
others available under applicable law. However, Operator offers refunds under
this agreement with the express understanding that endorsement of a refund by
participant(s) constitutes a waiver of any such additional rights and remedies.

dispute in a court of competent jurisdiction in New York State.
DOCUMENTS: Documents will be mailed once full payment is received.
Document reissue fee is $25.00 per booking.

foreign country. All participants are required to check with the appropriate
consulate or embassy for the respective destination for entry requirements that
apply to them and their travel companions. No refunds will be made if incomplete
or improper documentation results in denied boarding or entry. A valid passport

ticket terms and tariffs of the airlines which, when issued, shall be the sole

INTERMEDIARY DISCLOSURE: Operator assists you in finding travel
suppliers and making arrangements that meet your individual needs. Operator
considers various factors in identifying travel suppliers to you and
recommending specific itineraries. In this role, Operator is acting as an
independent third party and not as a fiduciary. The Operator Parties want you to
be aware that certain suppliers pay them commissions as well as incentives for
reaching sales targets or other goals, and from time to time may also provide
incentives to the Operator Parties’ travel counselors. Certain suppliers may also
provide compensation to the Operator Parties for various marketing and
administrative services that they perform for them, such as granting suppliers
access to the Operator Parties’ marketing channels, participating in marketing
programs and supporting technology initiatives. In addition, our parent
company, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. receives
compensation from suppliers when customers use the American Express® Card or
other American Express products to pay for supplier products and services. From
time to time the Operator Parties may enter into other business relationships with
suppliers and these arrangements, including levels and types of compensation
and incentives the Operator Parties receive, are subject to change. In identifying
suppliers and recommending itineraries, Operator may consider a number of
factors, including supplier availability and your preferences. The relationships the
Operator Parties have with suppliers may also influence the suppliers Operator
identifies and the itineraries Operator recommends.
