for you? Here is what you can do to get the planning process
rolling
for the vacation of a life time....
FIRST,
browse through our web site and note the destinations and itineraries
that
look good to you. If you are interested in a custom itinerary,
give some thought to where you would like to go, what you would
like to do, and your budget

read through the terms and conditions. Please insure that you fully
understand the trip terms and conditions before you book your reservation.

not hesitate to call us
THIRD, Contact
Your World, Your Way Travel. If you are interested in a custom
itinerary, we will discuss your trip plans with you and return
to you with a draft itinerary and a quote ASAP. Usually this process
takes about 2 business days, a bit longer if the trip is complex
and involves multiple countries.
FOURTH,
Review the itinerary and let us know what you would like to change,
if
anything. Custom itinerary planning tends to be a somewhat iterative
process; we want to get everything just right!
FIFTH, Complete
the Reservation Application and read and sign the Release of Liability
and Assumption of Risks forms and return to us by mail (we need
hard copies) with your trip deposit. Upon receipt of this, we will
forward you our informative trip preparation packet and help you
to secure airline reservations, if necessary
