Save 5% When Traveling with 5 to 8 People

    

 

TRAVEL WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS, AND SAVE MONEY!
   

5 or more – Save 5%: If a group of 5-8 people travels together, a discount of 5% per person applies to the LAND-only portion of your vacation. So it pays to get together with your family
and friends!

16 or more: We offer attractive group discounts based on how many people travel. In a group of 16 passengers, 1 traveler qualifies for 100% discount off the LAND-only portion of the trip. Plus, everyone saves 5%!
   
Please note: Space is limited to one group per motorcoach. These discounts are not combinable with our Travel Club Discount, any other rooming, young traveler or triple room discounts, and do not apply to our City Breaks, Greek itineraries with Mediterranean cruises, Egypt, Israel, and extra night accommodations. All travelling passengers’ names must be advised to Trafalgar at the time of booking in order to qualify.

 

Save 10% on Children (Ages 5-17)

    

 

YOUNG TRAVELERS (5-17) SAVE 10%
   

Share your vacation with your family.

Share your vacation memories with your family and take advantage of a discount on the LAND-only portion of your vacation. Young travelers must be under the age of 18 years on the itinerary departure date, and MUST be accompanied by an adult (limit of one young traveler per room).
   
Please note: Children under 5 years old are NOT accepted on any guided vacation. The young traveler must be the specified age at the time of travel to be eligible for this discount. This discount cannot be combined with our Travel with Friends Discount, and is limited to one young traveler discount per room. It also does not apply to our City Breaks, vacations with Mediterranean cruises, Egypt, Israel, and extra night accommodations.

Travel with three people sharing one room and each of you will receive a discount off the LAND-only portion of your vacation price. Each itinerary lists the triple room reduction per person. Refer to the trip of your choice.
   
Please note: Triple room discounts are based on sharing a twin-bedded room with an extra bed which may be a ‘rollaway’. This discount only applies to itineraries featuring the Triple Room Discount offer.

 

Repeat Travelers Save 5%

    

 

JOIN THE CLUB AND SAVE 5% 
   

The Trafalgar Travel Club

Each year, over 50% of our guests have previously experienced the magic and excitement of a Trafalgar vacation.

To express our gratitude, we extend membership into the Trafalgar Travel Club to all clients who have traveled with us, as well as a valuable credit worth 5% off the LAND-only portion of the next Trafalgar trip of your choice. You will need to travel within five years of your last Trafalgar trip. So act NOW and take full advantage of this great offer.
   
Please note: Trafalgar's Travel Club is not available retroactively. Only one credit is available per person per year, and only one credit can be redeemed against each further vacation booking. The Trafalgar Travel Club discount does not apply to our City Breaks and extra
night accommodations.

 

Avoid the Single Supplement

When traveling alone, we understand that some travelers do not want to incur the expense of an additional single room supplement. With this in mind, on the majority of their itineraries, Trafalgar offers you the opportunity to purchase these trips on a room-sharing basis. They will accommodate you with a fellow passenger of the same gender on a ‘two-bedded’ basis (non-smoking rooms only). Please note that, regrettably, they cannot guarantee that roommates will be of a similar age group. Even so, it is an enjoyable way to travel and get to make new friends, and a positive way to stretch your vacation budget. If Trafalgar is unable to match you with someone, they will provide a single room at no extra cost.

Please note: This service does not apply to Trafalgar City Breaks, Greek Island Hopper and Best of Greece vacations, Greek itineraries with Mediterranean cruises, train tours, Egypt, Israel and extra night (pre or post,) accommodations.

 

Save 5% on 2 Tours

    

 

SAVE 5% AND GET TWICE THE FUN!
   

...when you book a second Trafalgar vacation!

Book two Trafalgar vacations, each 7 days or longer for a reduction of 5% off the LAND-only portion of the vacation with the shortest duration. Take three trips and save on two! Just ask your Travel Agent for suggestions on your perfect vacation combination. There are too many to list here!
   
Please note: Vacations are combinable with second and subsequent additional trips. Vacations must be booked at the same time. The discount is per person only and does not apply to City Breaks, Greek vacations with Mediterranean cruises, Egypt, Israel and extra
night accommodations.
