RESERVATION CHANGES:
Due to the expense incurred
in making changes, a $35 fee
will be assessed for each
change made up to 30 days
before departure on
deposited bookings.
Additional incurred expenses
will be charged for each
change made less than 30
days before departure. This
includes changes made to
passenger’s name, hotel, and
air or ground
transportation. Also,
changes to the air portion
may be subject to additional
charges.
HOTELS:
Hotels are classified by the
Adriatic Luxury Journeys
using government ratings,
which vary from country to
country. The Operator
reserves the right to make
substitutions with hotels of
similar or higher ratings.
Accommodations are based on
two persons sharing a
twin-bedded room with
private bath or shower, at
the hotel selected or
similar. A single room may
be provided at an additional
supplement. In many cases,
single rooms, though
assuring privacy, are small
and not as well situated as
double room accommodations.
In addition, rooms are
assigned upon arrival based
on current availability and
may vary in size, amenities
and location. Generally,
triple rooms in Europe
consist of two beds with a
rollaway set up for a third
party. This may not be
comfortable for some
travelers. In the event a
hotel substitution becomes
necessary, a comparable
class of hotel will be
provided, however, amenities
may not be the same. Air
conditioning is available at
most 4-star or higher
hotels. However, foreign air
conditioning is not
necessarily used according
to U.S. standards.

Continental or buffet
breakfast daily at your

at selected popular
restaurants or hotels, as
specified in the itinerary.
In-flight airline meals are
