Health & Safety Your wellbeing whilst on holiday is of prime importance to us and we will do our best to ensure your holiday is safe and trouble free by working with our accommodation and service providers to improve standards. It is, however, important to remember that standards abroad are not always the same as those you would expect at home and so we do ask that you take care whilst you are away. We strongly urge you to follow the safety guidelines detailed in our documentation plus any extra information afforded by individual accommodation and service providers. All properties we offer receive a regular inspection as well as on going reviews throughout the season. Fire safety: Always familiarise yourself with the fire exit routes and fire safety equipment on arrival at your accommodation. Personal safety: Use common sense and take the same care for your safety and belongings as you would do at home. Most resorts are generally safe but you are advised not to walk alone at night in unlit areas or obviously display valuables. We recommend the use of safety deposit facilities at your accommodation (there may be a small charge for this). Please take notice of advice given by our Representatives about local conditions. For Guidance and Information: Please check with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office email: TravelAdvicePublicEnquiries@fco.gov.uk or visit their website www.gov.uk/browse/abroad/travel‑abroad. Inoculations: At the time of the website being updated and the brochure going to print, there are no recommended inoculations for visiting Italy or France. However, we do advise you to check the latest information with your GP or health centre. Health and Hygiene: You should take care to minimise the risk of holiday illness while you are away and should take advice about your specific needs before you go.

Climate Sardinia has a pleasant 6 month summer, hot and dry from May to October but often with a breeze due to its location in the centre of the Mediterranean. The winter months are mild with a good amount of sunshine, particularly in March, April and October when it can be hot during the day time and cooler in the evenings

Central Sardinia From rugged cliffs, tiny coves with electric blue sea and picturesque harbours on the east coast to a mountainous interior, central Sardinia also has lakes, waterfalls, gorges, fascinating geology and native flora and fauna to explore. UNESCO Su Nuraxi archaeological site is at Barumini and the Giara di Gesturi nearby has Nuraghi to discover along with herds of semi wild ponies. Some of Sardinia’s wildest beaches can be found south of Oristano on the west coast.

North East Transformed into one of the most desirable holiday destinations in the Mediterranean with the jet set Costa Smeralda showcasing stunning bays of emerald sea and Porto Cervo yachting marina encouraging other resorts from Santa Teresa to San Teodoro to develop along the beautiful coastline with some astonishing rock formations. Away from the Costa Smeralda itself there are less expensive but equally beautiful places that have a more relaxed atmosphere.

Alghero Now a popular holiday resort, Alghero is a charming old Catalan town often referred to as the Coral Riviera, nestled into the north west Sardinian coastline, with wonderful views and sunsets over the bay to the dramatic cliffs at Capo Caccia. The old walled town of Alghero, within the ancient ramparts and lookout towers, has a lively atmosphere with a good selection of shops, café bars, restaurants and a 5km long white sandy beach.
Costa Smeralda ‘The Emerald Coast’, a name inspired by the striking colour of the sea, stretches for 55km, with a harmonisation between Mediterranean architecture, natural landscape and seascape, encompassing more than 80 beautiful bays, coves and sandy beaches from Baia Sardinia to Cala di Volpe.

South Sardinia Boasting a relatively unspoilt coastline with spectacular beaches and Caribbean like turquoise sea, there are stunning scenic drives along the south coast with alternating sheer cliffs, long stretches of sandy beaches, Roman ruins and impressive sand dunes. Cagliari on the central south coast is the islands capital, steeped in history and offering a wealth of shops and restaurants.
WHY SARDINIA?
Why Sardinia? Sardinia is not a mainstream holiday destination but a sophisticated Italian island set in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, west of mainland Italy and south of Corsica. With 1,800km of coastline, it is renowned for white sandy beaches, fascinating rock formations and sparkling emerald sea. Yet being the second largest Mediterranean island, it has so much more to offer with an interesting history, a wild mountainous interior, vibrant towns with local traditions and warm, friendly people. Easy Access by Air
Mediterranean Lifestyle
Something for Everyone
Sardinia is just a 2 hour flight from the UK. There are direct flights from UK regional airports including Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton, Bristol and Manchester. There are 3 airports in Sardinia: Olbia in the north east, Cagliari in the south and Alghero in the north west. There are also regular flights between mainland Italy and Sardinia for a combination holiday with cities such as Rome, Venice, Florence and with the island of Sicily.
Sardinia is an island that allows you to truly experience the very essence of Mediterranean life. The cuisine offers a rich repertoire of dishes, heavily influenced by the island’s various neighbours including Corsica and Italy, accompanied by impressive local wines. The mixing of game and farm produce (traditional with inland towns) and fish and seafood (traditional with coastal towns) result in a combination of flavours that is unique to Sardinia.
Sardinia has something for everyone from the jet‑set world famous Costa Smeralda, with breathtaking scenery and exclusive hotels, to the unspoilt south coast with many deserted beaches and Caribbean blue sea. Wherever you are in Sardinia, there will be a stunning coastline with beautiful bays and beaches, vibrant yet uncommercialised towns and villages, a mountainous interior with wonderful views of the island, refreshing lakes and waterfalls and an interesting history. For example, there are around 7,000 ‘Nuraghi’ (mysterious stone dwellings dating back 3,500 years), throughout the island as a reminder of its prehistoric occupation, as well as numerous examples of Roman architecture.

MAP OF SICILY North Sicily Northern Sicily is bursting with charm, character and history with idyllic coastal towns, dramatic mountains and picturesque beaches. It incorporates Palermo, Sicily’s capital, as well as Cefalù and Castelbuono. North east Sicily encompasses Mount Etna and Taormina, arguably the most enchanting town on the island.
West Sicily Different from the rest of the island, the west of Sicily has always been off the beaten track. Historically there were Phoenician and Arab invaders who influenced the architecture and food which can still be seen and tasted today.
The Islands of Sicily The volcanic Aeolian Islands are a listed UNESCO Site. Situated off the north coast, they are reached by hydrofoil from Cefalù and Milazzo. Ustica is 60km north of Palermo and the Egadi Islands are off the west coast, the Pelagie Islands are 200km off the south coast and Pantelleria 100km southwest of Sicily and 60km east of the Tunisian coast.

Whilst the Sirocco (from the Sahara to the south) and Mistral (from the north west) winds can blow during the summer months, the island generally maintains a pleasant climate which promotes the growth of olives, almonds, citrus fruits and vines. Winters are generally mild on the coast but it can snow on Mount Etna!

WHY SICILY?
Why Sicily? Despite its close proximity to the Italian mainland, the beautiful island of Sicily remains distinctive in both its history and culture, offering even seasoned travellers a unique and memorable taste of the Mediterranean. Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean with nine provinces dividing its intensely cultivated landscape. The Sicilians, renowned for prizing their unique heritage, welcome travellers looking to engage with the Sicilian culture and therefore offers a truly authentic Mediterranean experience to those willing to explore it. Immersed in an exceptionally diverse history, Sicily is widely understood to be not only an island of contrasts due to its eastern and western archaeological divide, but a world entirely unto itself.

Please visit www.gov.uk/travelaware for more advice and information.
Emergency Number You will receive your Rep’s telephone number for your use in resort in case of need. We also detail in your holiday documentation emergency numbers for police, fire, ambulance and road assistance.
Complaints In the unlikely event of dissatisfaction with any element of your holiday, we would stress to you to let your Rep or accommodation reception know about it so that we can endeavour to rectify the situation as soon as possible. It is much better to solve any issues during your holiday than to wait until you return home. (Please see Terms & Conditions p70 for Complaints Procedure.)
Money Exchange & Cashpoints
Resort Representatives
The currency used is the euro (€). Banks are generally open 8.30am-1.30pm and 2.30pm‑3.30pm Mon‑Fri (Italy) and Tue‑Sat (France). There are cashpoint machines (bancomat/caisse) available outside some banks, which can be used with your UK cashpoint card and usual pin number with instructions available in English. Please note that the hotels are unlikely to change traveller’s cheques but do accept most major credit cards.
One of our Reps will make contact with you on your arrival in resort either by meeting you at the airport or by text, telephone call or email if you have provided us with contact details. On arrival at the airport, once you have collected your luggage, please make your way to the Arrivals Hall. If you have transfers arranged, a driver will be there to meet you and will take you to your accommodation. If you have hired a car, please make your way to the relevant car hire desk and the agents will assist you with the collection of your vehicle. Please ensure you have your paperwork, driving licence and credit card ready. Your Rep’s mobile telephone number and email address will be given to you in your pre‑departure email that you will receive several days before your holiday. This information will also be in your ticket wallet, pre‑departure email and in your TravelPal app. Your Rep will be available to contact by phone during your stay and certain accommodations receive visits from our Reps. Please see our website or speak to our Reservations Team for more information.
Self Catering Accommodation Welcome Packs ‑ provided in some of our villa accommodation, with a few necessities for your arrival. Please check with our Reservations Team for each individual villa. Security Deposits ‑ The majority of self catering properties ask for a security deposit on arrival to cover any damages and additional cleaning costs. Payments will either be held on a card or taken in cash (to be confirmed at time of booking). Supermarkets ‑ Most larger supermarkets are open throughout the day, often until as late as 9pm in peak season although supermarkets and convenience stores in smaller towns tend to close earlier and also at lunchtime, especially out of season. In addition, an increasing number of petrol stations have small convenience stores attached to them and many towns have weekly produce markets. Whilst the range of products available in shops continues to improve, please remember it is the Mediterranean so certain items might not be readily available. Villas & Apartments ‑ have a minimum of a fridge, hob, sink, storage, crockery and utensils but some will not have kettles, toasters, microwaves or ovens (please ask our Reservations Team for details). We suggest that you take with you some basic items such as a tea towel, dishcloth, salt and pepper, washing‑up liquid and possibly a travel kettle. Cleaning & Linen ‑ please discuss this and book extras with our Reservations Team before your holiday as this differs depending on accommodation chosen.

These holidays are protected under the Package Tours Regulations. These regulations require us to provide security for the monies that you pay for package holidays booked from this brochure or website. Your Financial Protection We provide full financial protection for our package holidays. 1. For flight‑based holidays, this is through our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 10217 issued by the Civil Aviation Authority, Gatwick Airport South, West Sussex, RH6 0YR. Telephone 0333 103 6350 Email claims@ caa.co.uk. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us, you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where we are not able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non‑provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re‑assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. 2.

You may, however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you wish to do so. When you make a booking you guarantee that you are over 18 years and have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions. A contract will exist as soon as you or your travel agent call, email, book online or live chat with our sales office to make a booking, we reserve all the elements of your holiday and confirm the booking to you (verbally, in person, on the telephone, online or in writing). A booking reference number will be given to you at this time. By asking us to confirm your holiday booking you are accepting the terms of this agreement and consent to

us processing personal information about you and other members of your party (see Data Protection). Your contract is made on the terms of these booking conditions. You will be required to pay a deposit of £120 for each person plus the price of the flights (including infants) when you book. Please note your booking deposit may be increased or there may be a charge payable for some accommodation or flight bookings where it is necessary to secure specific facilities with full payment at time of booking e.g. specific types of airline tickets, hotel rooms or special offers. The balance must be paid at least 8 weeks before departure otherwise the booking may be cancelled by us and you will be liable for cancellation charges as stated below. On receipt of our confirmation invoice, it is important that you check all details are correct, including the spelling of all names, and if they are not correct you must contact your travel agent or us immediately. Any changes must be brought to our attention before your ticket wallet is issued (usually 2 weeks before departure) or you will be liable for any costs incurred for the re‑issuing of tickets and travel documents. Your Holiday Price Prices included in the brochure and website are in UK pounds and were calculated using an exchange rate of €1.1 to £1 on 6th Dec 2019, however we reserve the right to change any of those prices from time to time. We will be able to tell you the up to date price of your holiday and of any other services advertised in this brochure and on our websites before your contract is confirmed at the time of booking. Changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. However, there will be no change within 20 days of your departure. We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent up to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your travel arrangements, you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. Should you decide to cancel: 1. You must do so within 14 days from the date on your final invoice. 2. We will provide a refund of insurance premiums paid to us if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy.
Should the price of your holiday go down due to the cost changes mentioned above, then any refund due will be paid to you. We will deduct from this refund our administrative expenses incurred. Please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. When you buy a flight based holiday through a travel agent, all monies you pay to the travel agent are held by them on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust at all times. This is subject to the agent’s obligation to pay it to us so long as we do not fail. If we fail, any money held at that time by the agent, or subsequently accepted from you by them, is and continues to be held on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation to pay that money to us. When you buy a holiday not including a flight, all monies you pay to the travel agent are held by them on our behalf at all times. Please note: all prices quoted on our website include early booking offers, supplements and reductions excluding any loyalty discounts.
Changes Other Than The Price Under the terms of your booking, we are able to make changes to any aspect of your booking. If the change is insignificant, we will ensure that you are notified about it. Examples of insignificant changes include alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 12 hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same or higher standard, changes of carriers. If we are constrained by circumstances beyond our control to alter significantly any of the main characteristics of the travel services that make up your package, you will have the rights set out below: 1. We will contact you and you will have the choice of accepting the change or having a refund of all monies paid. You can also accept an alternative holiday, where we offer one (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value). We will tell you the procedure for making your choice. Please read any notification of changes carefully and respond promptly as if you do not respond to us within the timescale given your booking may be cancelled. 2. If you choose to accept a refund: We will pay compensation as detailed below except where the significant change is due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances, which means a situation beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken.
The compensation that we offer does not exclude you from claiming more if you are entitled to do so Compensation payable Period before departure when a significant change per passenger is notified More than 56 days NIL 55‑29 days £10 28‑7 days £15 Less than 7 days £25 Child Pro‑rata Significant Changes We consider a significant change as one involving a change or substitution of accommodation to a lower grade than stated in our website or brochure (whether star rating or our own vine rating), a change of UK departure airport (except between London airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, City Airport, Luton and Stansted), a change in the time of your departure or return flight by more than 12 hours (but not a flight delay as this is covered under your travel insurance). These changes are only examples and there may be other alterations which constitute significant changes. This standard payment will not affect your statutory or other legal rights. The compensation that we offer does not exclude you from claiming more if you are entitled to do so. Important note ‑ events Beyond our Control Force Majeure: We will not pay you compensation if we have to cancel or change your travel arrangements in any way because of unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control. These can include, but not limited to, war, riot, industrial dispute, terrorist activity and its consequences, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, epidemics and pandemics, unavoidable technical problems with transport and the inability of airline(s) to operate flights as a result of the United Kingdom’s decision to leave the European Union (including the loss or restriction of air traffic or transit rights or the right of airline(s) to enter any airspace). If You Wish to Change Your Booking If, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your travel arrangements in any way, for example your chosen departure date or accommodation, we will do our utmost to make these changes but it may not always be possible. Any request for changes to be made must be in writing from the person who made the booking or your travel agent. You will be asked to pay an administration charge of £25 and any further cost we incur in making this alteration.

Health & Safety Your wellbeing whilst on holiday is of prime importance to us and we will do our best to ensure your holiday is safe and trouble free by working with our accommodation and service providers to improve standards.
