As we’ve been working with the majority of our hotel partners for many years, contacting our hoteliers at enquiry stage, to ensure that your preferred room types, interconnecting rooms, or suites are available to book, comes as second nature.

Our prices are displayed as symbols reflecting different price points: £ is up to £1500, ££ is between £1501 and £3000, and £££ is over £3001.

With the aim of preserving the quality and beauty of holiday destinations for future generations, many hotels have developed sustainability initiatives to improve their ecological footprint. A number of our hotels have received awards from organisations such as Travelife, Green Key and Blue Flag. Sani hotels’ Sani Green Initiative highlights renewable energy sources, water and energy conservation, and the removal of single use plastics. Ikos hotels’ Green Programme focuses on water, energy, waste and supply sustainability targets, and educates guests with eco-learning programmes. Constantinou Bros Hotels is a member of the Cyprus Breakfast programme, a Cyprus Sustainable Tourism Initiative in order to promote traditional local gastronomy naturally produced from local communities.

Costa Navarino, on the Greek Peloponnese, has a strong commitment to economic, environmental and social responsibility. Sustainability was embedded in the development of the resort and a guiding principle from planning through to construction and operation. More than €55 million has been spent in creating the necessary infrastructure for a wholly sustainable operation. A number of our hotels are reducing carbon emissions by exploring alternative sources of energy, sourcing food as locally as possible to reduce food miles and encouraging guests to conserve energy and cut down on litter. Should you have any questions about the sustainability credentials of any of our featured properties please speak to our travel experts.

We are keen to mitigate our environmental impact wherever possible. The paper used in our brochures is from sustainably managed forests and controlled sources. We’re also reducing the number of brochures that we produce by extending each brochure’s life cycle from 12 to up to 24 months.

For all the family Gently shelving beaches and clear warm waters make much of Greece and Cyprus suitable for families with very young children. There’s plenty of history and fascinating ancient sites to spark the imagination of inquisitive slightly older children, and most teenagers will find land and water-based sports activities very much to their liking. There’s nothing quite like a family holiday to create the fondest of life-long memories. Our travel experts suggest the following family-suited hotels to ensure that the whole family has the best possible time away. These properties include some of the best children’s clubs, swimming pools and splash parks, playgrounds, exciting activities, babysitting, interconnecting rooms and restaurants that have dining areas and menus dedicated to younger family members. Corfu The calmer waters of the eastern beaches of Corfu attract many families. There are a number of hotels with great facilities for families including Kontokali Bay Resort & Spa, MarBella Corfu and all inclusive hotels such Ikos Dassia and Ikos Odisia.

Agios Ioannis Peristeron is perfect for families and beach lovers with its long sand and pebble beach and watersports. In the surrounding area there are beachside tavernas, mini-markets, lovely coves, lush forests and picturesque villages. Aqualand is 14km distant. Dassia and Kommeno Bay are friendly, relaxed resorts framed by fragrant pine woods and blue flag pebble beaches. Gouvia occupies an enclosed natural bay and is home to Corfu's yacht-filled main marina. Moraitika’s long shingle and sand beach is backed by the picturesque old village set low into the hillside. Messonghi is a popular, busier resort where watersports abound and children will find some shallow spots for swimming. Lefkimmi is Corfu’s second largest town. Pretty wooden fishing boats moored on the riverside and low-key nightlife, suggest an authenticity largely untouched by tourism.

Ionian Coast Inland from the coast is a soaring landscape reminiscent of Scotland at its finest. There are mountain villages and dense forests. By the sea, low-key resorts and the gloriously unspoilt Ionian coastline stretches from Igoumenista to Preveza and Lefkada. In this remote region of Greece is the world’s deepest canyon, the Vikas Gorge. The area also boasts desolate clifftop monasteries, soul-stirring mountain vistas and skies patrolled by eagles. Forests, waterfalls, ice-cold mountain lakes and the charming Zagori villages bring to mind Alpine retreats. The Ionian Sea laps at a wild coastline of long sandy beaches and low-key seaside resorts.

In this area of outstanding natural beauty, a stretch of appealing beaches and coves unfurls between Sivota, to the north, and Parga, in the south. Some of the beaches are busy, others provide escapefrom-it-all serenity. Sivota’s harbour remains the focal point of the village. Here tavernas serve the catch of the day straight off the boats and flotillas of yachts moor in the town’s charming marina. Sandy beaches of white sand and rocky coves are yours to explore. Just off Sivota are islands and islets upon which to discover paradise beaches of pristine sand and cobalt blue waters. Parga has a reputation as one of Greece’s most photogenic holiday resorts. Its deep, picturesque bay brings to mind ancient amphitheatres, where the small wooded island of Panagia steals the limelight, centre stage, beneath the town's Venetian castle. Wander around Parga’s hilly heart of cobbled stone streets and beautiful arches. Discover flowerfilled neighbourhoods of charming houses and pastel coloured villas. At sunset take a romantic walk along the waterfront where stylish restaurants and cosy bars offer views of the castle and Panagia islet.

It is two hours’ drive east from Sivota, and famed for centuries for shepherding and the production of unique colourful hand woven textiles. During the 17th and 18th centuries it supplied the wool not only to Ioannina and nearby villages but throughout the Balkans and even north Africa. MET E ORA Just under a three hour drive east of Sivota, rising above the city of Kalampaka, Meteora is a series of incredible sandstone rock towers where, dating back to the 11th century, 24 monasteries were constructed on the peaks of the columns to enable monks to live as hermits.

Ionian Islands - Kefalonia Kefalonia’s commanding scenery has many a captivating feature: high peaks, pine-covered slopes, beautiful coves, and delightful bays and beaches. This large, mountainous island seems vast and never feels busy. On the west coast, the perfect horseshoe harbour of Assos provides great swimming, better even than the more famous Myrtos beach which, although beautiful to look at, is challenging when the surf is up. With calmer waters and smaller pebbles, Agia Efimia is a fishing village on the east coast, and between it and the port of Sami, lies the Melissani cave with its underground lake partially open to the sky. Nearby, Drogarati cave is a venue for concerts. Island capital, Argostoli, boasts trendy cafés and smart shops and an elegant traffic-free centre.

Ionian Islands - Zakynthos Zakynthos has nightlife and some larger resorts, but there’s also a far more authentic aspect to this beautiful island. There are green hills and mountainsides, mighty limestone cliffs, pristine beaches where turtles come to nest, and secluded coves that are only reached by boat.

IONIAN SEA Navagio ◆ ◆ Tragaki ◆ Tsivili/Planos ◆ Akrotiri ◆ Zakynthos Town

Parts of the south of the island are given over to larger, hedonistic resorts, but explore further afield to discover traditional rural villages, forests, vineyards, olive groves and orchards. There’s spectacular scenery on the rugged west coast, including Navagio with its iconic beached shipwreck. Zakynthos Town has old city charm – courtesy of its acropolis, castle and graceful harbour – modern Greek architecture, and plenty to visit including museums, markets and welcoming tavernas.

O UR R ESO RTS Just a few miles northwest of Zakynthos Town, Tsilivi and Planos boast a great variety of restaurants and bars and are popular choices for couples and families. The superb blue flag beaches are amongst Zakynthos’s best; long stretches of sandy coast with shallow warm waters and many watersports. Vassilikos is a quiet resort in an area renowned for its natural beauty where high mountains act as a backdrop to the sandiest of beaches with shallow clear waters. A paradise for beach lovers, caretta caretta sea turtles also call it home.

In a more residential location, hillside Akrotiri has long attracted wealthy islanders to build their homes here. The views are tremendous, and the area is one of great natural beauty. The village is equidistant between Zakynthos Town and the beach at Tsilivi ensuring a holiday that offers something for everyone. Delightfully peaceful Tragaki is set away from the coast. It’s a hillside village framed by olive and almond groves.

This is no ordinary wreck as it is easily visible lying in the middle of the sandy white beach, fringed by crystal clear waters and spectacularly backed by magnificent cliffs. Navagio is easily accessible by boat trip or on a round the island cruise. THE B LUE CAV ES At the northern most point under Cape Skinari, the blue caves are a favourite, if busy, spot where reflections from the sea cause delightful hues of blue to dance on the white rocks giving an almost surreal sculpted appearance to the landscape. SUNS ETS The west coast has some impressive sea cliffs, and for perfect sunsets, head to Kampi to watch the setting sun disappear over the clear blue Ionian waters. SEA TURTL ES The National Marine Park in the south of Zakynthos has been established to help protect the breeding ground for caretta caretta or loggerhead sea turtles for which the island is famed. The turtles, which are among the oldest species on earth, dig their nests in the sand and during July and August you can often see them at sundown at Laganas Beach. Although visitors may watch, they are encouraged to stay away from the beach between dusk and dawn.

Sithonia Peninsula Kassandra Peninsula

Set beside the sea, Thessaloniki is a major university town ensuring a youthful vibrancy outside normal tourist months and this, together with its compactness, makes for a delightful visit at any time of the year. The city is mostly famous for its sightseeing, but it’s not all culture. There are fine restaurants, lively bars, a café-lined waterfront and sandy beaches only a few kilometres from the city. There are plenty of historic sites, galleries and museums. Highlights include the White Tower. A sixteenth century Ottoman construct, it has been a fortress, prison, a university workshop, and is currently one of the city’s many museums. The Arch of Galerius, known as Kamara, is a popular passageway and meeting point for students, locals and visitors. The historic third century Rotunda, an impressive addition to the centre of the city, has been both church and mosque and is now a sculpture museum. Eclectic art galleries were once Turkish baths. Upper Town, Ano Poli, is an enchanting mix of colourful old houses, winding alleyways and ancient churches, grand buildings and the ruins of a Roman palace.

As Greece’s second city, Thessaloniki, is more mild-mannered and less hectic than Athens and, as northern Greece’s central transport hub, it offers convenient connections to Halkidiki.

O UR E X P E RTS SUG G EST Although Thessaloniki is great as a left-field city break, we highly recommend a two centre holiday, spending three or four days discovering the city then transferring by private transfer, journey time around 60 minutes, to one of our luxury hotels on the popular peninsulas of Halkidiki.

Alonissos

One of the smaller of the Sporades Islands, Skiathos is known for its delightfully pretty beaches numbering more than sixty. Agia Paraskevi and Koukounaries, to the south and southwest, are two of the most attractive. The beach at Megali Ammos is one of the closest to Skiathos Town, and buses and water taxis serve Kanapitsa, set on a beautiful peninsula to the south. Skiathos Town is built on two hills and an impressive fortress sits between its two harbours. The narrow streets are lined with whitewashed houses and crammed with geranium and bougainvillea. From the town, transport by bus is frequent and easy along the south coast, by boat there are unmissable day and sunset trips, and ferry transfers to Skopelos. Larger, quieter and very pretty, Skopelos has a beautiful Aegean port with winding cobbled streets, more than 120 churches, and steep hills rising from the harbour. The town teems with life from its many tavernas and bars. Wine and olive oil have a long history here, but the island enjoys fame from a more recent past; movie-going ABBA fans will recognise Kastani as Mamma Mia beach and Amarantos Cape as the film's scenic locations. The island is blessed with numerous beaches including the gorgeous, sandy cove at Limnonari. Beautiful Alonissos offers old-world charm, peace and tranquillity. The least developed of our featured Sporades islands features oak and pine covered hills with a network of marked walking trails. The surrounding waters are home to the indigenous Monk seal. Visit sleepy villages, relax on pebbly beaches and spend quiet evenings in authentic tavernas.

See more of the Sporades Islands SKIATHOS TOW N At the heart of the island you’ll find many restaurants, bars, clubs and shops. Walking around the streets is an excellent way to spend a relaxed evening and familiarise yourself with its architecture and the local way of living. CAST LE O F S K IATH OS Located on the northern side of the island, this former medieval fortification, known locally as Il Kastro, is a fantastic way to spend some time away from the beach. Built on a rocky cliff, remains include structures of old churches and surrounding walls, accessible only by boat or an uneven pathway. SKIATHOS S E A CAV ES Lalaria on the northern side of Skiathos is home to a wild landscape and crystal clear waters, highly recommended for swimming and snorkelling with tour boats from Skiathos Town.

Athens The Greek capital is a modern city with a glorious past encapsulating mythology and history. This sprawling vibrant city is home to over four million people, and historical and cultural buildings abound.

The Acropolis is visible from almost anywhere in the city, and little can prepare the viewer for the breathtaking magnificence of one of the world’s most famous buildings, especially at night when illuminated. The National Archaeological Museum is one of the most important museums in the world devoted to ancient Greek art.

Acropolis

Plaka

The National Gardens, located in the centre of the city, are one of its greatest treasures. Agora, the heart of ancient Athens, offers a refreshing break from congested city streets, and is dotted with beautiful monuments. The wooded Lycabettus Hill is a fantastic vantage point easily reached by funicular, or on foot; boasting Athens’ highest point it affords splendid city views, especially at sunset. More modern attractions include Planetarium Athens, home to one of the most technologically advanced digital planetarium in the world, featuring 3D virtual trips to the galaxy. Monastiraki Square’s vast flea market pulls in the crowds and vibrant Omonia and Syntagma squares are the addresses of some of the city’s most luxurious hotels. The districts of Plaka, Thissio and Psyrri feature neoclassical mansions, modern architecture, department stores and small artisan shops. Athens also offers a vibrant food scene and nightlife with a multitude of sophisticated restaurants and bars, and more traditional tavernas. All over the Greek capital there’s a fresh appreciation for Greece’s food heritage and the amazing natural produce that is available. Getting around is easy as there’s an extensive public transport network of buses, metro, trolleybuses and trams and many pedestrianised areas.

O UR R ESO RTS Mykonos Town, viewed by many as the St Tropez of the Aegean, attracts celebrity in-crowds who enjoy staying in some of the most luxurious hotels in the Cyclades. There’s chic designer shopping, art galleries, and a vibrant nightlife: elegant restaurants, Greek tavernas, stylish bars and many nightclubs. Landmark windmills overlook the harbour and traditional Cycladic sugar cube houses cling to the hillside. This is one of the most captivating towns of all the Greek Islands. The artistic quarter, Alefkandra, is enchanting by day with art galleries, trendy cafés, bars and the Panagia Paraportiani churches. By night it’s lively. Keep an eye open for the town's resident pelican mascots. The island’s longest beach, blue flag awarded Elia, attracts a diverse crowd with its laid-back ambience, watersports, tavernas and beach bars. Picturesque Agios Ioannis is 4km from Mykonos Town; gorgeous views to the island of Delos are a feature from this long stretch of fine white sand. The resort offers traditional tavernas and a good range of hotels.

ISL A N D OF D E LOS Just off the Mykonos coast is the tiny sacred island of Delos which, according to Greek mythology, is the birthplace of Apollo and his twin sister, Artemis. Considered an important sanctuary during ancient times, numerous temples, statues and sanctuaries were built and the island became a powerful commercial and spiritual centre. The island is reached by 30-minute taxi boat ride from Mykonos Town, although the sea can be choppy.

Perivolos

Kamari is on Santorini’s east coast, where the beaches shelve gently into crystal clear sea. The long, blue flag, shingle and volcanic dark sand beach is perfect for families as there are numerous watersports, a dive centre and an open air cinema. Lively bars, stylish restaurants and traditional tavernas along the seafront complete the picture. The trail which winds up from Kamari to the ruins of ancient Thira, continues south to the seaside villages of Perissa and Perivolos where a strip of hotels and tavernas line a beachfront which is the longest on the island. Towering over the northern part of the beach is the mountain of Mesa Vouno. Akrotiri is best known for the remains of an ancient Minoan city, preserved in volcanic ash, its pebble coves, and Red Beach, popular with snorkellers. Peaceful Vourvoulos is a hillside village overlooking wooden boats in the fishing port. Hotels line narrow alleys, while casual dining options include al fresco bars and tavernas serving seafood. Agia Paraskevi beach is located on the less busy eastern side of the island, close to the airport. It has a quiet, long, sand and black pebble beach.

OUR R ES ORTS Exquisite Oia, pronounced Eeya, is famous for spectacular sunsets. From its clifftop vantage point it features unparalleled views of Santorini’s crescent shaped bay, the caldera. An array of stylish bars, cafés, restaurants, shops and art galleries line the narrow clifftop walkway. Fira, the island’s stylish capital, is perched 260 metres above sea level. Dazzling white washed buildings cling to the cliffside and cobbled streets wind their way up the terraces. Access is by foot or cable car from the small harbour. Imerovigli sits on a clifftop overlooking Santorini’s caldera islands. The terraces of its sleek bars, fine-dining restaurants, and upscale boutique hotels are popular sunset viewing spots.

Hersonissos boasts a long coarse sand beach backed by hotels, restaurants, tavernas and boutiques, and lively nightlife in the summer. Gouves features sugar cube houses and tiny churches within a maze of cobbled streets built into the side of Mount Ederi. There’s a village square and some lovely views over Kato seafront.

Lindos

Rhodes Town is the largest inhabited medieval town in Europe. Its fortress walls rise out of lush sub-tropical gardens to protect a maze of arcaded loggia, Italianate squares and tiny cobbled backstreets. Ancient palaces are at the heart of the Knights’ Quarter and the slender minaret of the Mosque of Suleiman is visible from the Turkish coastline. Beyond the ancient walls, there are designer shops, restaurants, a casino housed in a summer palace, bars and simple backstreet ouzeries where backgammon is the plat du jour. Pretty and purpose-built Ixia features a long shingle beach backed by a promenade which runs all the way to Rhodes Town. Ixia offers great watersports, traditional Greek restaurants and quiet bars. The thermal springs have been drawing visitors to Kalithea since the 1920’s. It remains a relaxing resort, both by day and night, where tiny inlets, rocky coves, sand and shingle beaches and clear waters add to the attraction. Lindos is a beautiful town where whitewashed sugarcube houses with charming pebble-paved courtyards cling to the hillside. Simply unique, the whole town is classified as an archaeological treasure. Upscale, relaxed and semi-rural Kiotari on the southeast coast is something of a newcomer to the holiday scene. There’s a very long beach and a growing number of hotels, bars and tavernas. The largest beach resort on the island, Faliraki is an allround resort attracting families, couples and young people with its vast beach, waterpark with wave pool, and lively nightlife. Neighbouring Kolymbia is a lot more laid-back. It’s a great base from which to explore Rhodes’ coast by boat, or do a spot of island-hopping. Ialyssos was a pioneer of tourism on Rhodes and its long strip of pebble beach is a popular spot for surfers.

Psalidi

OUR R ES ORTS Kos Town combines ancient sites with modern amenities. Built around a bustling harbour, and dominated by the medieval Castle of the Knights, it features restaurants, cafés, bars, and vibrant nightlife. Wide, tree-lined streets and sophisticated shopping comprise the new town. The old quarter counters with historical ruins and charming squares. Westerly Kefalos is a picturesque village about 40km from Kos Town. Built into a hillside beneath a windmill it offers gorgeous views over the south west of the island. Home to one of the island’s finest beaches, Lambi is a 30-minute stroll from Kos Town. Its long sand and shingle beach shelves gently into the sea making it ideal for families. There are waterports, snorkelling, and many beachfront tavernas, restaurants, cafés and bars. Boat trips are available, as are scenic walks to traditional villages for those in search of authentic Greek life. Just to the south of Kos Town, Psalidi is an unspoilt, beachfront enclave of some of the island’s finest hotels. Life here revolves around relaxation and restful days on the resort’s pebble beach; gently shelving, it's ideal for families and children of all ages. Surfing and scuba diving are particularly popular. Its beachfront promenade is lined with fish tavernas and restaurants. It’s a laid-back resort with most of the entertainment focused around the hotels. Marmari is a relaxed resort known for its wide, sandy beach. The nearby wetlands attract migrating flamingos and pelicans. The broad, white sand, gently shelving beach of Mastihari’s natural bay is hugely appealing, and the little port in the village offers sailings to the neighbouring island of Kalymnos. Close proximity to the airport makes Kardamena one of Kos’ most popular resorts. Although the nightlife is lively and the main beach busy, the village has retained much of its traditional charm. Quieter parts of the beach are at either end, and appealing sand dunes are nearby.

See more of Kos THE ASK LEP I O N The island’s most important ancient site is the Asklepion, a religious sanctuary dedicated to the Greek god of healing. Located on a wooded hillside, 4km west of Kos Town, with great views towards Turkey, there are ruins of temples, baths and an altar. An unlikely, and unsubstantiated, myth suggests that Hippocrates worked and taught here. CAST LE O F A N TIM ACH I A Located on a small hill overlooking the village of Antimachia, are the imposing and well preserved external fortifications of a Venetian Castle. Built by the Order of St John it dates from the 14th century. CAST LE O F T HE K N I GH TS Built in the 15th century by the Knights of St. John as defence against the Ottoman Empire, this imposing double fort stands at the harbour entrance and comprises four interior towers, battlements, gun ports and bastions, a drawbridge, and ramparts offering fabulous views over Kos Town and harbour.

The Asklepion

HI P P O CRATE ’S PL AN E TRE E This 500 year old plane tree, thought to be the largest in Europe, is located at the entrance to the Castle of the Knights. It is believed to be a descendent of the tree under which Hippocrates, Greek physician and father of modern medicine, tutored his students. Castle of the Knights

CASA R O MA N A Casa Romana is a 3rd century Pompei style Roman villa beautifully restored and decorated with frescoes and mosaics; numerous statues originally from the villa are displayed at the Museum of Kos. BOAT TR I P S Daily boat excursions are available to Bodrum on the Turkish coast, and closer to Kos, the islands of Pserimos with its delightful sandy beaches, Kalymnos, home of sponge divers, and Nisyros, with its dormant volcano.

Pissouri Bay

Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean and boasts stunning beaches and rocky coves, beautiful scenery and traditional villages, friendly people and a rich cultural heritage. The island has an appealing selection of luxury hotels, many of them extensive properties with every facility you could wish for. It’s also an island which lends itself to car hire – you drive on the left – just one of many genuine affinities which the island shares with the United Kingdom.

OUR R ES ORTS Paphos, particularly popular with the British, combines the beauty of the mountains and the sea with its charming harbour, ancient sites and monuments. Busy Limassol offers excellent shopping and a wide range of tavernas and restaurants, an old town set around an imposing castle and a blue flag stretch of beach. Idyllic Pissouri boasts a sand and shingle beach, crystal clear waters, and a sleepy village in the hills behind the bay. Peaceful Coral Bay has a fabulous white, sandy and gently shelving beach and an array of watersports. Latchi, along the northwest coast, is a picturesque fishing village with harbourfront restaurants. The gently shelving sandy beaches of Ayia Napa appeal to families and a younger crowd drawn to the club scene. Protaras is situated along the sandy coastline of Cyprus's Fig Tree Bay. The glorious beach is the main attraction and this family friendly resort has been built up around it. Go scuba diving, kitesurfing or windsurfing. Alternatively strike out into the Akamas Peninsula and Troodos Mountains where wildflower meadows and vineyards sweep up to pine-clad mountains offering hiking, rambling and horse riding. Cycle hire facilities exist in most resorts. For golfers, Secret Valley, Tsada Golf and Aphrodite Hills are excellent 18-hole courses near Paphos.

Service within hotels may change from time to time e.g. dining changes from traditional waiter service to buffet style. Such events are regrettably beyond our control although we will alert you to significant changes at time of booking, or if you have already booked, we will contact you as soon as is reasonably possible if there is time before your departure. Room types and upgrades - Single rooms normally carry a supplement which is for the convenience of having a room to yourself and location/facilities may be inferior to that of a twin room. In family rooms and twin or double rooms that take additional beds, do note that the extra bed/s could be of a folding or convertible sofa type and beds for children may not be full adult-sized singles. When additional beds are put in a room, floor space will be reduced, and cupboard access may be limited. Junior suites normally have a sitting area, and suites have a sitting area or separate sitting room. Ocean or sea view rooms enjoy views of the ocean/sea although foliage, buildings etc may sometimes interrupt a full view.

Ocean facing or sea facing rooms will face the ocean/sea but will normally be on lower floors where the view of the ocean/sea may be obscured through gardens/trees etc. Side ocean view or side sea view rooms tend to offer a restricted view of the ocean or sea. Please note that the main additional feature of any room category attracting a supplement may often be its view and that this will not necessarily include additional internal room facilities or amenities. Hotels for couples - Some hotels, particularly in long haul destinations cater for mixed sex couples only, and in some countries a same sex relationship will be deemed illegal. We therefore recommend that before confirming your holiday you thoroughly research your destination. Hotel facilities - Some facilities may incur a local charge e.g. sun loungers, sports, games, use of fitness/leisure and spa facilities, children’s clubs and children’s amenities, safety deposit boxes and car parking. The operation of some facilities may be dependent upon seasonal demand and/ or hotel occupancy rates. Air-conditioning - Most hotels offer in-room air-conditioning although this may be controlled centrally and might only be available at certain times of the year or subject to the prevailing weather. Check in/out & duration of holiday - On arrival at hotels, check in time is normally 4pm and check out 11am. Most hotels can provide luggage storage and changing room facilities if you arrive earlier or stay later, and you may be able to pay locally for a late check out from your room. The number of nights on your confirmation invoice refers to the number of nights reserved for you in your hotel. If you arrive very late at night or in the early hours of the morning, your accommodation is immediately available as it will have been reserved for the whole night and this will count as one of your holiday nights. Meal arrangements - Full board normally consists of breakfast, lunch and dinner; half board is breakfast and dinner. Full board or half board arrangements are generally served in the main dining room. Some hotels offer table d’hote. A full a la carte menu is available for an extra cost in a number of our hotels and customers should note that when half or full board is offered as a la carte dining, exclusions such as lobster, prawns etc may be available for a local supplement. Most hotels offer the option of booking any number of nights on half or full board so that you can pay in the UK and decide which nights you wish to eat at the hotel when you arrive: simply ask our travel consultants for details. All inclusive - Arrangements vary widely between hotels and where this concept is offered. It is wise to check specific details at booking stage as many hotels only include local spirits and wines and may limit your choice of restaurant. As with meal arrangements (above), if a full a la carte menu or restaurant is not included within the all inclusive concept, it may be available for an additional cost and exclusions such as lobster, prawns etc may be available for a local supplement.

Dress code - Owing to the sophisticated nature of many of our hotel restaurants, shorts and t-shirts are unacceptable for evening dining and slightly more formal attire is recommended. Formal dress is normally required for gala dinners. Specific dress is recommended for certain tours and safaris and this will be communicated at time of booking confirmation. Children & infants - To take advantage of children’s prices, a child must normally be aged 2-11 years at the date of return and must share a room with two adults or full fare paying passengers, although some hotels offer special reductions for a second child sharing the room, or for older children, or for a child travelling with one adult, or where children share an interconnecting room. Children paying child prices can normally benefit from reduced half board supplements (when booking same board basis as adults) and will not normally be charged room supplements although if these are payable, relevant prices will be advised at time of booking. Normally children staying in their own room will be charged as full fare paying passengers including relevant room and half board supplements. Please note that infants and children’s dates of birth (on the date of return from holiday) must be advised. Infants (under two years of age at date of return) pay a charge to cover any flight costs. Hotels will charge locally for food and cots. Please note that the regulations applied to the manufacture of cots in other countries are not as high as those in the UK and may not conform to British safety standards. Child seats - Although we can request child seats for private transfers in resort, they cannot always be guaranteed and in such cases, we suggest that you bring your own. Babysitting - Arrangements are available at many properties although the service will vary, and the sitter may not remain in the room with the child. If you wish to use a babysitting service, you must arrange and pay for it locally with the sitter who is frequently a member of the hotel staff not qualified in child care. Health & safety - We endeavour to regularly check all our properties for compliance in respect of local regulations. However, guests must exercise caution particularly with regard to fire safety, swimming pools, balconies, lifts etc, where compliance may not be equal to British standards. Resort development - May be in progress and occasionally the work involved will result in building work being in evidence. We cannot forewarn of all developments, however, if the works taking place, either through noise or other inconvenience, is felt by us to affect your overall holiday enjoyment, we will supply all such information. Many of our resorts are in popular holiday destinations which invariably have busy road networks so you may encounter some traffic disturbance especially during peak season. Representation - Owing to the specialist nature of our programme it is not always practical to visit our guests in their hotel especially during multi-centres, island hopping or fly drive holidays. All customers will be given emergency contact numbers and departure details will be confirmed during your stay. Our resort representative or local agent will normally make contact within 24 hours of your arrival to ensure that everything is in order, although should you encounter any difficulties during your stay, please contact your hotel manager in the first instance, and if further

assistance is required, simply contact our resort manager or local agent who will endeavour to resolve the problem.

Booking conditions OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU 1. Provision of your holiday We will arrange for the provision to you of the services which make up the inclusive holiday as confirmed to you. These services will be provided either directly by us or by independently contracted suppliers. When you, or your travel agent, ask for your holiday booking to be confirmed, we allocate your chosen holiday to you and give confirmation of the booking at that moment. It is then that a firm contract exists between you and Classic Collection Holidays (Registered in England no. 1512421) on the basis of these booking conditions. This also acts as your acceptance of our booking conditions and your holiday is secured from that moment. If your holiday includes flight arrangements, you will be issued with an ATOL certificate immediately and, in any event, you will receive a holiday confirmation invoice verifying the details. All holidays and offers advertised in the brochure are subject to availability and are as confirmed to you by telephone or on your Holiday Confirmation Invoice. 2. Your holiday price A. When you book Hotels practice fluid pricing which means that costs may significantly increase during periods of high demand. Offers may not be available where we have exceeded our contractually pre-allocated rooms at certain hotels. The government charges a levy to cover financial protection in the event of an airline failure and we automatically add this to your invoice total at the booking stage. Once you have confirmed your holiday booking, the price is protected subject to clause 2D of these booking conditions. Please note that not all hotel features detailed are complimentary, and some are subject to seasonal demand. B. VAT and Exchange rates Our VAT Registration number is 503 944 749 and all prices quoted include VAT where relevant (at 20% at time of going to press). Please note hotel costs, transfers, resort representation, excursions, local taxes and part of the flight cost are typically paid in the currency of your holiday destination country. Aviation fuel is paid in US Dollars. All of these costs are affected by changes in the cost of buying foreign currency. We reserve the right to increase our prices in accordance with these booking conditions. C. Surcharges (after booking) Once you have booked, the price of your holiday travel arrangements may vary owing to changes in transportation costs such as fuel, scheduled airfares and any other airline cost changes which are part of the contract between airlines (and their agents) and the tour operator or organiser, and also in respect of government action such as changes in VAT or any other government imposed changes. In the case of any small variation, an amount equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, and any amendment charges, will be absorbed or retained. For larger variations, this 2% will still be absorbed for increases but not retained from refunds. In either case there will be an administration charge of £1 per person together with an amount to cover agent’s commission. In the unlikely event that this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your holiday travel arrangements, you may cancel your booking and receive a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. D. Tourist or environmental tax Some regions and cities impose a tourist or environmental tax.

Amounts often vary between region and hotel star rating and often are payable by customers locally on departure from their accommodation. Taxes may be introduced or changed without prior notice and our travel consultants are happy to advise current rates where applicable. 3. If your booking is changed It is unlikely that your booking will have to be changed, but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance, therefore we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these changes are very minor, but where they are major, we will inform you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure. A major change is one that is made to a major part of your holiday arrangements before departure, such as a change of your departure airport (except between London airports), resort area or time of departure or return by more than twelve hours or offering accommodation with a lower category rating. If we must make a major change you have the choice of the following: A accepting the changed arrangements as notified to you, B purchasing another available holiday from us, or C cancelling your holiday and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. Additionally, if we make a major change after you have paid the full balance of your holiday and you accept A, B or C you will be entitled to compensation on the scale shown below. Period before scheduled departure within which a major change is notified to you or your travel agent

Compensation per adult

More than 56 days 43-56 days 29-42 days 15-28 days 0-14 days

Nil £20 £30 £40 £50

Important note Compensation payments do not apply to changes caused by reason of war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, natural and nuclear disasters, fire, or other circumstances that may amount to force majeure. 4. If your holiday is cancelled We reserve the right in any circumstance to cancel your holiday and, in this event, we will return to you all money you have paid us or will offer you an alternative holiday of comparable standard to purchase. In no case, except for those beyond our control, will your holiday be cancelled after the balance is paid and, in such cases, compensation will be paid per clause 3. 5. What happens to complaints As members of ABTA (membership number W5429) we are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you which is set out in a Code of Conduct. If we can’t resolve your complaint (see clause 5 in Your Commitment to Classic Collection Holidays below) you may use ABTA’s arbitration scheme which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found online at www.abta.com 6. Our responsibility for your holiday We accept responsibility for ensuring that all component parts of the inclusive holiday, limited to items included on confirmation invoice, and subject to the paragraph entitled Air Passenger Rights below, are supplied to you as described in this brochure and to a reasonable standard. If any such part is not provided to your satisfaction owing to the fault of our employees, agents, or suppliers, we will pay you appropriate compensation if this

your Travel Specialist today! 242 Contact fredolsentravelagents.co.uk

has affected the enjoyment of your holiday (see Important note in paragraph 3 above). Our liability in this respect is limited to a maximum of three times the value of the holiday. We must ask you however, to be patient and understanding in the event of unforeseen alterations to your holiday made by our suppliers over whom we have no direct control. Air Passenger Rights Under EU law you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/ or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. However, reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund and/ or compensation from us is set out in paragraph 3. If your airline does not comply with these rules you can make a complaint via the Civil Aviation Authority www.CAA.co.uk 7. Excursions (whilst participating in arrangements made by us) Excursions, tours or experiences that you may choose to book or pay for locally whilst you are on holiday are not part of the holiday provided by us and not included within the package. For any excursion or other tour that you book, your contract is with the operator of the excursion or tour and not with us and we are not responsible for the provision of the excursion or tour or for anything that happens during its provision. 8. Personal Injury (whilst participating in arrangements made by us) We have taken all reasonable and proper steps to ensure that proper arrangements have been made for all the holidays which are advertised in this brochure and that the suppliers of the various services which will be provided to you as part of the inclusive holiday are efficient, safe and reputable businesses, and that they comply with the local and national laws and regulations of the country in which they provide those services. We have no direct control over the provision of services to customers by suppliers. However, subject to the Notes below, we will pay to our customers the equivalent of such damages as they would be entitled to receive under English law in an English Court for any personal injury to the customer, including illness or death, caused by the negligence, as understood in English Law, of the servants or agents of ourselves or of any of our suppliers contracted or sub-contracted by us to provide any part of the arrangements for your holiday as described in this brochure. With regard to any relevant international convention for example, the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail, and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage, we are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions. Copies of these can be made available on request. 9. Personal Injury (unconnected with travel arrangements made by us) If you, or any member of your party, suffer death, illness or injury whilst overseas arising out of an activity which does not form part of your holiday arrangements or an excursion arranged through us, we shall at our discretion, offer advice, guidance and assistance. Where legal action is contemplated and you want

our assistance, you must obtain our written consent prior to commencement of proceedings. Our consent will be given subject to you undertaking to assign any costs or benefits received, under any relevant insurance policy to ourselves. We limit the cost of our assistance to you or any member of your party to £5,000. Under your travel insurance cover, you must make an insurance claim under the legal expenses section in respect of any legal fees incurred abroad for that purpose. Notes in respect of paragraphs 8 & 9 We would request that you (a) notify us of any claim for personal injury within 2 months of your return from holiday; (b) assign to Classic Collection Holidays any rights against a supplier or any other person or party you may have relating to the claim; and (c) agree to co-operate fully with us should our insurers wish to enforce those rights. This assignment is necessary to enable us to try to recover from suppliers any compensation paid to customers and associated costs as a result of personal injury to customers caused by the negligence of those suppliers. It is not our wish to profit from such assignment, and in the unlikely event of our recovering more than such compensation and costs, any excess will be paid to the injured customers. YOUR COMMITMENT TO CLASSIC COLLECTION HOLIDAYS 1. Your holiday contract As soon as your holiday booking is confirmed, a firm contract exists between you and Classic Collection Holidays on the basis of these booking conditions which are governed by English law and the jurisdiction of the English Courts. You may however choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you wish to do so. Any disputes arising will be heard in the English Courts unless you prefer the courts of Scotland or Northern Ireland. 2. Payment for the holiday You pay a deposit of £150 per person short haul or £200 per person long haul (or an agreed sum to cover non-refundable flight seats and/or hotel or other costs) when you book. This is your commitment until 8 weeks before departure when your final balance is due, unless otherwise specified at time of booking. You must pay the balance at least 8 weeks before departure. For bookings within 8 weeks of departure, full payment is required at time of booking. If payment is not received as above, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled and your deposit/s would be forfeited. If you pay a travel agent for your holiday, they will hold that money as our agent from the time they receive it until they pay it to us. Deposits and balances paid to us can be made by bank transfer, cheque or card. 3. If you change your booking If you want to change any details of your booking (e.g. transfer to a different holiday, substitution of a passenger, departure date or airport), we will do our best to help as soon as we receive your request in writing. We charge an amendment fee of £25 per person for each detail of the booking to be changed and, in addition to the amendment fee, we will charge for any additional costs we incur in making the amendment/s. You should give us reasonable notice of changes and please note that it is highly likely that amendment costs will increase the closer the change is made to your departure date. If amendments to a booking are made, and the booking is subsequently cancelled, we reserve the right to charge the original cancellation charges that would have been payable prior to the amendment.

IMPORTANT Some arrangements (e.g. flights purchased from certain airlines and certain hotel bookings or other costs) may not be refundable or transferable after a reservation has been made and any alteration request may incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the holiday arrangements. Where the price varies depending on the number of persons travelling and the numbers are amended, the price will be recharged based on the new party size. Any increase in price per person payable as a result of a part cancellation is not a cancellation charge and will not normally be covered by your chosen insurance. A separate cancellation charge will be levied in respect of bookings cancelled in accordance with paragraph 4 below. A new confirmation invoice will be issued as appropriate on which the cancellation charges will be shown. 4. If you cancel your booking You or any member of your party may cancel your booking, or part of it, once it has been confirmed, but the instructions will only be valid if in writing and signed by the person who confirmed the booking. Your written instructions should go either to the travel agent you booked with, asking them to notify us immediately, or if you booked direct, to us. Cancellation fees are on the scale shown, although please note that some holiday components have more restrictive cancellation terms and if this is the case, these will be communicated at time of confirmation. The amount payable depends on when we receive your written instructions.

Amount of Period before scheduled departure within which cancellation written holiday instructions (% of total price) are received by us More than 56 days 43-56 days 29-42 days 15-28 days 8-14 days 7 days or fewer

Deposit/initial payment 30% or deposit if greater 50% or deposit if greater 70% or deposit if greater 90% or deposit if greater 100%

5. If you have a complaint If you have a complaint about your holiday please refer the matter to the supplier immediately (airline, hotel, car hire company etc) and our local or telephone agent/representative in resort. Matters can most easily be resolved for you on the spot when the supplier can see and understand the exact nature of any problems. If your problem remains unresolved you must contact us using the contact details on your travel documentation and we will do everything reasonably possible to resolve your complaint whilst you’re away. It is unreasonable to take no action whilst on holiday, then complain afterwards. In the unlikely event that matters cannot be resolved to your satisfaction our agent/representative will ask you to record details on a holiday report form of which you will be given a copy, and you must then follow up your report by contacting our Customer Relations team within 28 days of return. 6. Holiday illness If you, or any member of your party, become unwell whilst on holiday you must consult a local doctor in order to receive appropriate treatment and to obtain a full medical report. You must also report your illness as soon as reasonably practicable to our local or telephone agent/ representative, the contact details of whom can be found on your travel documents.

suppliers either in accordance with these booking conditions or otherwise. 7. Holiday participation We reserve the right to decline to accept or retain any person as a customer if their conduct is disruptive and affects the enjoyment of other holidaymakers, and we shall be under no liability for any extra costs incurred by such a person as a result of our doing so. Aircraft captains are legally entitled to deny boarding to any passenger presenting themselves at the aircraft who, at the captain’s absolute discretion, are unacceptably under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Any passenger who is denied boarding on the outbound flight for that reason, shall be deemed to have given notice of cancellation of his/her booking at that moment, and cancellation charges will apply in accordance with paragraph 4. 8. Your accommodation is only provided for the use of passengers shown on the confirmation invoice as confirmed by us; subletting, sharing or assignment is prohibited. 9. Your travel ticket conditions When you travel with an air or sea or rail carrier, their conditions of carriage apply, some of which limit liability. These conditions are often the subject of international agreements between countries, and copies of the conditions which apply are available for inspection at the travel agent where you book your holiday. 10. Travel Insurance We strongly recommend that you and all members of your booking are adequately insured on holiday and that the insurance is suitable for your needs and the type of activities you will be undertaking as part of your holiday. You are responsible for indemnifying us in full in the event that we incur any losses or expenses arising out of your failure to take out adequate insurance cover. 11. Data Protection & GDPR Classic Collection Holidays is registered under the Data Protection Act 1988 and deals with all personal data in accordance therewith. It is, of course, necessary for us to pass personal data to airlines, hotels, transportation companies, insurers and other agents in order that we can arrange your holiday. By confirming a booking with us, you have consented to allow the passing on of such data as we determine necessary for that purpose. Under the Data Protection Act, you have the right to inspect relevant personal information held by us. On 25 May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force and relevant information including our role as data controller, is detailed in the privacy policy statement on our website. 12. If we become insolvent By confirming a booking with us, you agree that, in the event of our insolvency, where applicable ABTA may arrange for the services you have bought to continue, or for a suitable alternative to be provided at the same cost as your original booking. You also agree to accept that in circumstances where the travel service supplier provides the services you have bought, you agree to pay any outstanding sum under your contract with us to that alternative travel service provider. However, you also agree that in some cases the services will not be provided, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under ABTA’s Scheme of Protection (or your payment card issuer where applicable) for a refund of the monies you have paid.

Notes in respect of paragraphs 5 & 6 Failure to follow the procedures set out in paragraphs 5 and 6 above may reduce or extinguish any rights you have to claim compensation from us or any of our
