We must let restaurants, theatres and other attractions know how many passengers are on our tours, and to pay the admissions sometimes as early as one month in advance! If we have no or few bookings on a tour at that time, we are forced to cancel it or lose our deposits and payments. Such a situation is very disappointing to us, but also to those of you who may call for reservations one or two weeks before a trip is scheduled. The earlier our customers make their reservations, the less likely a tour will be cancelled.
