    Booked pre-Covid then trip was canceled. Unable to get a refund and now they changed the rules to be fully vaccinated. So now we loose all our money! Hoping our lawyer is able to help us. Will never book again knowing once you pay them you will never get your money back!

    We made the mistake of booking with Trafalgar for May of this year. After they canceled the trip, they magnanimously offered us a 2 year voucher (as if we have any idea if it will be safe to travel). We are in the process of disputing the charges with the credit card and they are flat out lying in their side of the dispute- they are claiming we have already rebooked (we haven't) and that they had language that said they could offer a voucher (fortunately my wife kept the version that was up when we booked which did NOT have the language). Don't give these crooks your money.

    Erica

    Asked on March 19th, 2023

    We are opted out of the Best of Italy because we felt a very wonderful and tireing pace journey. 2 and 1 night experience. We were looking for 3 night and 2 night. OUR VERy first trip to Italy. We thought the Great Italian Cities trip would be ok. But i do not see great reviews. And measure a 3+ star? Your advise would be greatly helpful. We definaely want to stay with TRAFALGAR.

    Asked on July 7th, 2022

    Do I need to be in Rome on the first day at a specific time, or is it acceptable to fly in and arrive at say 2pm? Or should I be arriving 24 hours prior.
