STEP INTO OUR WORLD We’re delighted that you’ve chosen our brochure and we’d like to welcome you into our world.

We’ve been helping our customers to plan their holidays since 1936 and we’re proud to be able to say that we will be celebrating Premier’s 80th anniversary in 2016. The Premier “family” has grown in that time and whilst none of us can claim to have been around for 80 years, the desire of our founders to offer great value, excellent service and superb holidays still lives on today.

Many of our team have been with us for over 10 years and that means that we have the experience and knowledge to help you make the most of your holiday.

We hope that you’ll find the destinations and choices in the following pages will inspire you to take the next step and give us a call, so that we can help you to turn your holiday dream into a reality.

Yours sincerely

Renford Sargent Chairman, Premier Holidays

America & beyond

Planning your stay

We’re delighted to showcase our collection of holidays in America from cosmopolitan cities, iconic National Parks, relaxing cruises and beautiful beaches, not to mention the magic of Mexico and beauty of Bermuda. Our brochure is designed to give you ideas of what you can do, where you can go and what combinations work best together.

A holiday in America is great for independent travellers, but as the country is so vast it is vital to have the right advice from someone who knows the destination well and who can ensure that an itinerary is created to match your own particular requirements… and that’s where we come in.

No doubt you’ll want to see as much as possible but you should prepare for the fact that it won’t necessarily be relaxing, unless of course you have opted for a beach stay!

Throughout this wonderful country there are some amazing experiences to be had, and sights to be explored, but you may need to travel to get to them. Some of the distances are vast, so will almost certainly involve some internal flights, rail travel or, on occasions, long drives.

In America we feature a range of touring options from self-drive routes and escorted coach tours to motorcycle tours on a Harley Davidson and motorhomes too. We’ve also got ideas on how to combine different cities or regions using Amtrak rail, a great selection of touring hotels, excursions to enhance your stay and motorhomes for a completely independent driving holiday.

We’re also delighted to introduce Mexico and Bermuda too, their idyllic beaches make them perfect choices as standalone destinations but they can also be combined with US cities to make your holiday even more memorable.

All the prices shown within this brochure are based on the best value travel dates in low season.

Our Price commitment In our rapidly changing world, it’s easy to understand that prices can be subject to enormous fluctuations during the lifetime of a brochure. We are in constant contact with the hotels and cruise lines we feature and work closely with our airline partners to ensure that we always have the best offers to hand.

That means we can make a simple promise to you – we will always offer the best possible price for your holiday on the day incorporating any available added value offers.

Choosing your hotel Everyone is different and that’s why our brochure incorporates a portfolio of hotels which span a whole spectrum of styles. From small and simple to truly world class hotels offering the ultimate in luxury... and everything in between. Our aim is to ensure that there is something to suit every taste.

In many hotels you have a choice of room types, so if you are looking for a sea view or just want to treat yourself to a suite, the choice is yours.

As there is no universally accepted hotel grading system in North America we have personally graded the accommodation featured to help you in your selection. These are not official star ratings and are for your guidance only:HH A basic hotel with limited services and facilities.

Often small ‘motel’ style hotels.

HHH Comfortable, unpretentious, excellent value and ideal for the more budget conscious client.

HHHH Usually a higher standard of modern hotel or an exceptionally well maintained older property.

An above average hotel with some outstanding features.

Plus Where PLUS appears with the star gradings it indicates it is above average and just short of the next highest category.

HHHHH A deluxe hotel offering exemplary standards of accommodation, service and a wide range of facilities.

Self-drive Tours

Escorted Coach Tours

If you want to plan your own American road trip, we can help you to plan your itinerary, book your rental car, motorhome or even motorcycle - and all the accommodation for stops en route.

See as much as possible, but prefer not to drive, we offer a range of escorted coach tours in the North East, Southern States, California and the West.

Sightseeing, transfers & attraction tickets Enhance your stay by pre-booking airport transfers, sightseeing tours or attraction tickets.

Cruise & Stay We’ve handpicked a selection of our favourite itineraries from some of the world’s best cruise lines so you can set sail on your own voyage of discovery.

Peace of mind When you are planning a holiday you not only want to know that your tour operator has the necessary experience to guide you through complex itinerary planning, but you also want to know that your holiday is financially safe.

All the flights and flight-inclusive holidays in this brochure are financially protected by the ATOL scheme.

When you pay you will be supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on your confirmation.

Please see our booking conditions for further information or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate.

Holidays and services which do not include flights are protected under the bond we hold with the Association of British Travel Agents.

Put simply, if something happens to us, you get your money back.

Explore America by Rail Rail travel is a convenient, affordable and flexible way to see America. There are over 500 destinations in the Amtrak system and with comfortable accommodation and wonderful vistas, plus an opportunity to reduce your carbon footprint, it’s a great way to explore this vast country.

Multi-centre itineraries At Premier Holidays, we specialise in tailor-making holidays. Whatever you want, we can do!

However, we understand that everyone needs a bit of a helping hand at some point as it’s not always easy to know what goes together.

In truth, anything is possible and there are endless combinations, but some itineraries are more logical, and consequently, better value and better use of your precious holiday time, than others.

What we’ve done here is to suggest some holiday combinations, which you might find of interest. It goes without saying that these are just a starting point, but they do offer guidance as to the many possibilities – some popular, some unusual, but always interesting.

Remember though, you can vary the durations, change the hotels, add on excursions or side trips, upgrade your flights or simply ask us for something totally different. All prices include international flights.

Cruise & Stay

What could be better than the romance and glamour of sailing across the world’s vast oceans, or experiencing ever-changing scenery and anticipating the next port of call as it first appears on the horizon. We’ve handpicked a selection of our favourite itineraries from some of the world’s best cruise lines so you can set sail on your own voyage of discovery.

Why Cruise ?

Setting sail on a cruise is one of the best ways to visit a variety of countries and unique cultures on one memorable holiday, without the need to pack and unpack. Relax amidst blissful surroundings and discover the thrill of waking up somewhere new every day – will it be an intriguing island, a captivating city or a day on the open sea awaiting you today?

Whether you are already an avid cruise traveller or the idea of a holiday afloat is new to you, the good news is that today’s cruise lines offer an incredible variety of far flung and exotic destinations, so you really are spoiled for choice.

First consider where you want to go and what you want to get out of your cruise – relaxation, adventure, culture? If you want a cruise filled with sun, sea and sand look no further than Hawaii or

12 Cruise & Stay 2016 USA 012-013 Cruise intro.indd 2

Bermuda; perhaps you’d prefer the rich diversity and staggering natural beauty of Alaska; the chance to sail out of New York and across the Atlantic or, alternatively, why not consider a river cruise in the Southern States?

The second consideration is which ship to select.

There are boutique and small vessels which can visit out-of-the-way destinations; mid-size ones which have more modest entertainment and facilities; or large, resort-style ships offering an exceptional array of entertainment, dining venues and amenities.

Some have dress codes and assigned seating times for meals; some cruises have themes with renowned experts on board; some are more child-friendly and others more upscale and, in turn, more expensive.

Do also consider which cabin type you would prefer and where on the ship you would prefer to be located.

One common factor, whatever the vessel and destinations, is value for money. As you’ll see over the next few pages our cruise itineraries include flights, meals and entertainment and as cruises are also renowned for fantastic food, prepare for a culinary adventure too.

If our collection of cruises whets your appetite, take the plunge and call us to plan your dream voyage.

Planning your holiday

Create your perfect Cruise & Stay holiday It’s the perfect holiday for…

River cruising…

Everyone. The beauty of cruising is there really is a perfect ship and itinerary for every person, every budget and every whim. A cruise suits those looking to do it all or nothing at all; there’s an opportunity to socialise and make new acquaintances; holiday budgets are easily managed as most costs are included but there’s always the option to upgrade your cabin for a little extra luxury. It’s a hassle-free way to travel and tick off several “bucket list” places in one holiday and although time may be limited in each port of call you still get a real flavour of each destination visited.

River cruises offer a popular alternative to life on the ocean wave. Within this brochure we are delighted to offer the American Queen Steamboat which cruises along the mighty Mississippi River.

See page 53 for full details and itinerary.

Showcasing the diversity and drama of the Mississippi River, enjoy the romance of the antebellum era, lively Cajun culture, fertile cotton fields and iconic cities.

The largest steamboat ever built, the American Queen epitomises the grace and grandeur that made river cruising a cherished American tradition for more than two centuries.

Portland Lighthouse, Maine

The North East is home to some of America’s greatest cities.

The Big Apple, the nation’s capital, historic Boston and the Windy City are surprisingly individual. On their own, they make superb short breaks, but they are also fabulous as a stopover en route to the beach or as the start of a fly-drive tour of the region.

All located close to water, whether it be a river, the sea or a lake, they have some of the country’s finest architecture and important buildings as well as superb shopping.

Planning your holiday

Arlington Cemetery Memorial

White Mountains National Park

Boston’s cobbled streets, gas lamps and fine public buildings make for a charming city which delights and surprises its many visitors. Compact and easy to get around, there’s a very European feel to the city with history, culture and a wide variety of attractions around every bend from upmarket Beacon Hill and the Boston Tea Party ships to the fascinating Freedom Trail and nearby Harvard University.

The area surrounding Boston is known as New England and covers the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine and Vermont. Here you’ll find glorious beaches, brilliant fall foliage, expansive lakes, scenic villages, covered bridges and soaring mountains along with distinctive food, such as clam chowder.

Chicago, also known as the “Windy City”, is home to some of America’s most spectacular architecture as well as a theatre district that is second only to New York’s Broadway; a very wide selection of museums, superb shopping, a host of blues and jazz clubs and it even has its own beaches. Chicago is also the start of Route 66, so why not head off along the ‘mother road’ to explore some intriguing cities and towns.

It’s also the gateway to the Great Lakes, namely Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.

Why visit The North East?

From pulsating cities brimming with fabulous museums, spectacular skylines, superb shopping and eclectic neighbourhoods to beautiful coastlines, scenic villages, tranquil lakes and stunning natural scenery, the North East offers plenty to see and do.

Bold, bustling, exciting and frenetic the “Big Apple” should certainly be on everyone’s list of “mustsees” and all first time visitors should be sure to catch a glimpse of the glittering Manhattan skyline, be it from the Staten Island Ferry, atop the Empire State Building or aboard a helicopter. New York’s five boroughs – Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island – also entice visitors with big-name museums, theatres, cherished architectural landmarks, fantastic shopping and incredible array of restaurants representing almost every nationality and ethnicity in the world.

Lovers of the great outdoors should head out into the wider New York state where the Hudson Valley, Catskill Mountains, Finger Lakes and Niagara Falls beckon.

The nation’s capital, Washington DC, is a monumental city of grand government buildings, characterful districts, memorials and vast museums which are stunning in daylight and outstanding at night. Only in Washington, DC can you view the Declaration of Independence, stand where Martin Luther King Jr, said “I have a dream”, be an arm’s length from where Lincoln was assassinated and find so many free attractions. The eclectic buzz of Washington DC combines perfectly with the neighbouring states of Maryland and Virginia, and collectively comprises the Capital Region, an area of breathtaking beaches, major national parks and culture-rich cities. Discover the natural charms of Chesapeake Bay, the quiet solitude of Shenandoah National Park, historic Jamestown and Williamsburg or marvel at the Civil War trails.

Create your perfect North East Holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

Everyone! Whether you want just a few days to explore iconic cities or prefer longer to tour and explore.

For those keen to explore more of this fascinating region we highly recommend one of the self-drive or coach tours shown on pages 28-30. Alternatively, create your own holiday starting with a city stay then hire a car and heading out to discover the surrounding area. Popular combinations include Boston and New England, Chicago and the Lakes or Washington DC and the Capital Region. Our selection of touring hotels can be found on page 31 – although we can offer many more. Another option is to create a multi-city itinerary using Amtrak rail travel between each city, and centrally located stations give you more time to enjoy the attractions rather than travelling to and from out of city airports.

Classic North East We suggest a four night city break, be it New York, Washington DC, Boston or Chicago, for time to see the sights, enjoy some retail therapy, discover the dining scene and truly soak up the atmosphere.

We offer a great selection of hotels and on pages 20-21 you’ll find a variety of pre-bookable transfers and excursions to enhance your holiday.

New York’s incredible sights include the Statue of Liberty, the recently opened One World Observatory, the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Times Square and Central Park. Art lovers will find worldbeating museums and galleries; theatre-goers can take in a Broadway show; shopaholics can delve into SoHo’s trendy boutiques or Fifth Avenue’s flagship stores; while Little Italy, Chinatown and Greenwich Village provide a feast of dining options and nightlife.

In Washington, DC don’t miss the 19 Museums of the Smithsonian complex; or the “big six” national monuments and memorials including the Lincoln Monument or haunting Vietnam War Memorial; see the White House and Capitol Building; or head across the Potomac River to Arlington National Cemetery which is the resting place for thousands of US citizens who have served their country and President John F Kennedy.

In Boston walk the Freedom Trail that connects the city’s 16 most important historic and colonial sites; see the Tea Party Ship and Museum; visit Back Bay, Beacon Hill and Boston Common; take a tour of the USS Constitution or travel across the Charles River to Cambridge to see the renowned Harvard University.

In Chicago enjoy the views from the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower; visit Lincoln Park Zoo, Grant Park or bustling Navy Pier where you’ll find a variety of entertainment; or, in this great sporting city, catch a game of basketball, American football or baseball.

North East and beyond The excellent airline and Amtrak rail links across America make it easy to combine a stay in the North East with many other areas of this vast country.

The options are almost endless; however we have several favourites that you may wish to consider, including the popular combination of a few days in New York before heading west to the bright lights of Las Vegas. Alternatively, after exploring the renowned city sights of the North East why not fly south for a relaxing few days on a beach in the sunshine state of Florida; combine the non-stop excitement of New York with time beside the sea in Mexico or Bermuda; or why not explore the historic sights of Boston and Cape Cod before heading off to the beautiful island of Bermuda. Another fantastic option is to take in the sights and shops of New York before the chance to relive the golden age of transatlantic cruising as you travel back to the UK aboard Cunard’s flagship Queen Mary 2 - and after all that shopping you won’t have to worry about the weight of your luggage!

Florida is America’s playground – the perfect holiday destination for children aged from 4 to 84!! The Sunshine State offers plenty of that all important factor as well as its famed theme parks centred around Orlando, fabulous beaches dotted around its 1,800 mile coastline, manicured golf courses, great shopping, glitzy nightlife and the fascinating natural beauty of the Everglades. Florida really does have something for everyone.

Why visit Florida?

The Sunshine State is a treasure trove of sand and surf, world-class golf and fishing, fascinating wildlife, fabulous shopping and amazing theme parks.

Located in central Florida Orlando boasts the largest collection of theme parks in the world and is the honeypot that draws most visitors to the state.

It’s a captivating place of elaborate fantasy, thrill rides, characters galore and water parks ensuring there’s never a dull moment.

Surrounded by water on three sides Florida is blessed with wonderful beaches to suit all tastes and budgets. The Gulf of Mexico on Florida’s west coast is perfect for families with soft powdery sands and shallower warmer waters. Resorts include popular St Petersburg and Clearwater Beach where you’ll find lots going on; travelling further south brings you to the more exclusive Sarasota and Longboat Key; sophisticated Naples with its superb beaches, boutiques and restaurants; charming Fort Myers and shell-laden Sanibel Island. The biggest city, though, is Tampa which has a thriving downtown, an historic old quarter and Busch Gardens® theme park.

Florida On the east is Florida’s Gold Coast with its wide expanses of sand and stronger surf thanks to the Atlantic Ocean, so perfect for surfing. Resorts include exclusive Palm Beach; fashionable Fort Lauderdale with its superb beaches and 165 miles of inland waterways; and Miami with its beautifully restored Art Deco district, superb 1930s architecture and world-famous South Beach. Continue south and you’ll reach the chain-link islands known as the Keys, which begin in Key Largo, lead to Islamorada and Marathon and finally reach Key West, the USA’s southernmost point.

Orlando 35

Let’s not forget the Everglades, a vast watery wilderness covering much of the Florida’s southern tip and home to over 350 species of birds, alligators, manatees, mangroves and more.

It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

In a nutshell, everyone, whether travelling with friends, as a couple or with children and whether you want non-stop thrills and spills or lazy days beside the sea.

If you have more time or simply want a contrasting experience we suggest splitting your stay between the fun of Orlando and a beach resort to relax and recharge. Do also consider tearing yourself away from the beach for a day to explore the Everglades National Park where you can enjoy an exhilarating airboat or swamp buggy ride or stop at the various rest areas along Route 75 to watch for alligators basking in the sun. All manner of watersports can be enjoyed on the Gulf or Gold coasts while the Florida Keys offer great opportunities for fishing, diving and snorkelling.

Classic Florida A 10-14 night stay in Orlando is recommended.

Plan your stay on the number of parks you wish to visit and generally you should allow one day per park, particularly if travelling with small children.

This duration also allows for rest days lazing beside the pool, exploring the outlet malls or perhaps enjoy a day out at the Kennedy Space Center.

If Orlando’s not for you and the beach beckons, then we’d suggest a stay of at least 7 nights while the array of resort options ensures everyone can find their own patch of paradise.

Florida and beyond With so much to explore within Florida few will look to combine with other regions. One option is to combine a city stay in New York, Boston or Washington, DC with a Florida beach; perhaps combine Miami with Mexico or consider adding on a Caribbean cruise as many cruise lines depart from Miami or Fort Lauderdale.

A visit to the southern states is to step back in time and admire the places which are part of American history. The battlegrounds of the Civil War, the scenes of the Civil Rights movement epitomised

by Martin Luther King, the luxuriant Smoky Mountains and the delicate, charming antebellum architecture of the oh so correct southern society are all yours to appreciate. And for the jazz and blues lovers amongst you, it’s the opportunity to immerse yourself in musical history.

Bourbon St

Stax Museum

Why visit The Southern States?

This mesmerising region has much to offer – a complicated political history, incredible musical heritage, melt-in-the mouth cuisine, the majestic Mississippi and legendary southern hospitality.

In Tennessee, you’ll feel the rhythm of music, experience awe-inspiring natural wonders and discover a rich history. In Memphis, absorb the sound as you explore neon-lit Beale Street, Elvis Presley’s Graceland, Sun Studio, Stax Museum and Museum of Rock ‘n’ Soul. Memphis is also home to the National Civil Rights Museum, located in the Lorraine Motel where Dr Martin Luther King Jnr was assassinated in 1968. Nashville or ‘Music City USA’ is the undisputed capital of country and home to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Grand Ole Opry; Chattanooga’s railroad history inspired the popular song “Chattanooga Choo Choo’ and today you can visit the restored train station; and Pigeon Forge is home to Dolly Parton’s unique theme park Dollywood! Let’s not forget the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a preserve of wildflowers, old-growth forest and rushing mountain streams.

With the mighty river forming its western border, Mississippi is rich in history dotted, as it is, with Civil War battlegrounds. Vicksburg is a must if your interest lies in this period. Biloxi, on the Gulf Coast, is perfect for sun, sand and relaxation. Natchez, filled with its antebellum architecture, is a delight and a drive along the Natchez Trace Parkways, which stretches all the way to Nashville, is enchanting.

Kentucky, the ‘Bluegrass State’ is probably best known for Bourbon and horses, particularly the annual Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs near to Louisville. It’s also the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, Muhammad Ali and where Colonel Sanders perfected his secret recipe for fried chicken!.

In Louisiana, no city in the USA can compete with New Orleans when it comes to culture, food, historic architecture and joie de vivre. In the birthplace of jazz, music is everywhere, particularly around the historic French Quarter with its stunning architecture, intricate balconies and flower-filled courtyards.

Alabama is awash with history, from the Civil War battlefields and beautiful antebellum mansions of a bygone era to the Civil Rights struggles of the 20th century. The two main cities of Birmingham and Montgomery became focal points in the Civil Rights era and you can find out more at the Rosa Parks Museum in Montgomery or the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute.

North Carolina is home to Charlotte, a sophisticated city dating back to Revolutionary War times, and Raleigh the state capital. There’s also plenty to love about South Carolina, from Charleston’s antebellum homes to the glorious white sand beaches of glitzy Myrtle Beach and the understated elegance of Hilton Head.

In Georgia walk down the cobblestone streets of Savannah, a city filled with southern charm and one of the largest historic districts in the USA; discover more than 400 Civil War sites including battlefields, cemeteries, museums and mansions; or hike the Appalachian Trail.

Create your perfect Southern States Holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

Music lovers, history buffs, outdoor enthusiasts and foodies tantalised by a feast of creole and cajun cuisine will all adore the Southern States.

To gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture, a tour is the best option. We recommend either our self-drive Rhythms of the South or for those preferring not to drive, the Gone with the Wind coach tour (see page 52). Both showcase the music, historic architecture, southern hospitality and amazing landscapes between each unique destination.

Classic Southern States Encompassing the states of Tennessee, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, along with Kentucky and the Carolina’s, this region is incredibly diverse and in one holiday, you’ll barely scratch the surface. However, as the Southern States culture is intrinsically tied to its music, gain an insight to the region with a Memphis and Nashville twin centre holiday or, if time allows, add on New Orleans too.

Begin your musical pilgrimage in Memphis with a visit to Sun Studio, where legends such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, BB King and Jerry Lee Lewis all cut their first records. Take a stroll along Beale Street where you can check out the BB King Blues Club and the home of W.C Handy – the father of the blues. Of course no stay would be complete without a visit to Graceland, where you can view the home, stage clothes, cars and final resting place of the ‘King’.

Kick off your Nashville experience with a day at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum; then take a tour of Music Row and visit historic RCA Studio B; take a backstage tour of the Ryman Auditorium and try to catch a performance at the Grand Ole Opry.

If you prefer the jazz scene, then New Orleans is a must. Soak up the sights and sounds of the atmospheric French Quarter, visit the Voodoo Museum, take a relaxing cruise on board an authentic paddle steamer, stroll around the colourful French Market or take a tour of the hauntingly beautiful above-ground cemeteries.

Alternatively, take a step back in time and board the American Queen Steamboat for a river cruise along the mighty Mississippi River (see page 53).

Cruise from New Orleans to Memphis passing bayous and woodlands, gracious towns with palatial mansions, silent Civil War cemeteries and so much more. It’s a journey you’ll never forget.

Southern States and beyond While of course excellent flight links across the USA do make combinations with other states and cities easy to do, with so much to see and discover within this region, we can help you create your own perfect Deep South itinerary. Perhaps you’d like to combine a city stay with a relaxing few days on the beaches of South Carolina; trace the Civil War battlefields of Alabama and Mississippi; or enjoy some outdoor adventures in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We have showcased a small selection of touring hotels on page 51 – but we have many more available throughout the Southern States.

Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco

Think of California and think of LA, San Francisco, San Diego, Palm Springs and a visit to the state would not be complete without including all of them.

However, California has far more to offer than its four major cities.

The state, which spans a large proportion of the western seaboard of the USA, appeals to those in search of the diversity and natural beauty offered by places such as Yosemite National Park, Death Valley, the Wine Country and the Big Sur coastline.

Why visit California?

People have flocked to California ever since the gold rush began in 1849 and today the Golden State’s allure continues thanks to its diverse natural beauty, dazzling cities, celebrated coastlines, favourable climate, fantastic food and wine experiences.

When it comes to big city fun, California’s urban hotspots shine. Undeniably one of the world’s great cities San Francisco is known for its sparkling bay, iconic crimson bridge, quirky neighbourhoods and trundling cable cars scaling the steep streets.

Sprawling Los Angeles offers a wide range of attractions from the fun-filled theme parks of Disneyland and Universal Studios to the glitzy Beverly Hills shops and celebrity homes and the palm-fringed beaches of Santa Monica and Malibu.

Located just north of the Mexican border San Diego is a large coastal city with a small town atmosphere where you’ll find an array of fabulous beaches, an ideal climate and outstanding family attractions.

Nature looms large in World Heritage listed Yosemite National Park, a vast wilderness with miles of rivers, lakes, waterfalls, peaks and valleys while further south Death Valley National Park is an awe-inspiring land of volcanic craters, brilliantly-coloured rock formations and desolate salt flats. You can’t get any lower than this in the western hemisphere and, in summer, you can’t get much hotter. Other natural attractions include the impressive grandeur of the giant sequoia forests at Sequoia National Park; the forest-rimmed Lake Tahoe which straddles the border with Nevada and attracts outdoor enthusiasts year round; and Joshua Tree National Park where you can glimpse the curious flora and fauna of the Mojave Desert.

The spectacular beauty of the rugged coastline at Big Sur extends about 100 miles south from Monterey. Here, the Coastal Mountains dip directly into the Pacific Ocean to form some magnificent scenery with sea cliffs, rocky headlands and tiny beaches. Twisting Highway 1 hugs the mountain slopes and offers exquisite vistas at every turn and is one of the great road trips in the USA. Southern California’s warm Pacific waters attract sun worshippers and surfers alike. The counties of San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles are crammed full of great beaches for just about any beach activity you can think of. Some of the best beaches include Laguna Beach, Santa Monica, Newport Beach, Coronado and La Jolla. Head further north and the

waters are cooler and sandy beaches are scarcer but the wildlife watching can be incredible, with seals, sea otters, whales and sharks all regular visitors to these waters.

Let’s not forget the Wine Country as another great reason to visit. Napa and Sonoma in Northern California are two of the biggest and best wine producing regions in the world and travellers are welcomed to many of the vineyards for tastings and tours. If that weren’t enough, the scenery is fantastic!

No matter what you want to see and do, California has it.

Create your perfect California Holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

Independent travellers who feel they have seen Florida or the eastern cities, and are now keen to head west and discover more of this vast country. Options include an escorted coach tour, following a pre-planned self-drive route or creating your own ideal road trip.

Why not extend your stay to include beautiful San Diego, which as well as 70 miles of glorious coastline and wonderful beaches, is home to the world-famous San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld San Diego, an assortment of museums and cultural attractions in Balboa Park and in downtown San Diego the restored Gaslamp Quarter. Alternatively, head inland to the arid desert valley and city of Palm Springs, once the refuge for many famous Hollywood film stars and movie moguls. Major attractions here include golf courses, elegant resorts, the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, the Living Desert Zoo along with Joshua Tree National Park which is close by.

When it comes to national parks, California has plenty, including the jewel in the crown, Yosemite National Park, one of the world’s most beautiful natural wildernesses. Many of our tours also include Death Valley National Park, Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Park as well as Lake Tahoe and the four season recreation area of Mammoth Lakes. Our selection of touring hotels in California can be found on pages 66-67 – although many more are available.

Classic California For first time visitors particularly, we suggest your stay includes San Francisco, the Pacific Coast Highway and Los Angeles. Three days in San Francisco gives you time to take a ride on a cable car, explore Fisherman’s Wharf, crooked Lombard Street, infamous Alcatraz Island, and of course the Golden Gate Bridge where you can hire a bike or walk across to admire the stunning views.

Hire a car and head south towards historic Monterey to wander the shops of Cannery Row, visit the famous aquarium, go whale watching or visit nearby Pebble Beach and Carmel. Continue onto Highway 1 for an exhilarating driving experience as you follow this twisting, cliff-hugging 123 mile coastal route.

Sights along the way include the much photographed Bixby Bridge, San Simeon (for Hearst Castle) and San Luis Obispo. There are ample places to stop for photographs or scanning the sea for migrating whales or sea otters floating amongst the kelp.

In Los Angeles we suggest at least three days for visiting sights such as Sunset Strip, Hollywood Boulevard’s ‘Walk of Fame’, the designer stores of Rodeo Drive and celebrity homes of Beverly Hills.

For thrills and spills don’t miss Disneyland Resort and Knott’s Berry Farm in Anaheim or Universal Studios Hollywood, the world’s largest working movie studio and theme park. There’s also fantastic beaches such as Santa Monica, Long Beach, Malibu and Venice Beach, which is great for people watching.

Do bear in mind that distances between the various neighbourhoods can be huge, for example from downtown Los Angeles to Anaheim is some 60 miles!

California and beyond California combines perfectly with the neighbouring states of Nevada and Arizona. Tour itineraries on pages 63-65 showcase the best of California with the non-stop excitement of Las Vegas in Nevada and the magnificent Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona.

Alternatively, enjoy time in California before flying onwards to the Hawaiian island of Oahu, home to Waikiki Beach and Pearl Harbour; or for something different, why not consider a cruise of the Panama Canal? Norwegian Cruise Lines and Princess Cruises both offer appealing itineraries departing from San Diego and travelling through the Panama Canal and onwards to Fort Lauderdale in Florida. Please call for further details and prices.

A man-made oasis in the midst of the Nevada desert, Las Vegas is the most amazing city on the planet.

Home to the world’s largest and most spectacular hotels, every possible form of gambling, renowned world class shows and a wide range of exciting attractions. But don’t stop at the city limits, although the Wild West is a huge expanse to cover, if you have the time, the spectacular scenery of desolate plains, rugged mountains and deep canyons will reward your efforts many times over.

Planning your holiday

Salt Lake City Mormon Temple

Why visit Las vegas & The West?

A visit to Las Vegas is a must on any trip to America’s west – there is nowhere like it!

This is Glitz with a capital G! As everyone knows, this is America’s gambling capital and every major hotel has its own casino and you’ll be given every assistance to relieve you of your hard earned cash!

Aside from gambling Las Vegas is home to incredible shopping, thrill rides and roller coasters, golf courses, world-class spas and superb nightlife.

If Las Vegas doesn’t make you rich, the Wild West will certainly make up for it with a treasure trove of captivating cities and towns, astonishing national parks and abundance of attractions.

One of America’s most spectacular states has to be Arizona. From the majestic Grand Canyon to the famed buttes and spires of Monument Valley to the exhilarating waters of Lake Havasu, there’s much to explore. In the heart of Arizona, the twin cities of Phoenix and Scottsdale offer a taste of true Western life and some of America’s best resort hotels.

Turn back the clock to a time when the Old West reigned supreme with a visit to Bisbee, or Tombstone, home of the famed gunfight at the OK Corral. There’s also the city of Tucson, the famed art colony of Sedona or Flagstaff which has Route 66 as its main street.

Utah is simply glorious. Wonder at the red rock of the Wasatch Mountains, where the sunsets are beyond belief and prepare to be staggered by five of the most amazing National Parks in America – Bryce, Zion, Capitol Reef, Arches and Canyonlands. Don’t miss Salt Lake City, one of the west’s most beautiful cities and gateway to the state’s ski resorts and national parks.

Montana is a sparsely populated land of wide open spaces in the east and mountains in the west. Glacier National Park is home to a large population of grizzly bears and remarkable mountain scenery.

70 Las Vegas & The West 2016 USA 068-071 Las Vegas & the West Intro.indd 4

Wyoming is about its two celebrated National Parks.

Yellowstone in the north with its waterfalls and geysers (Old Faithful being the most famous) and Grand Teton National Park with the historic town of Jackson, which looks like a western film set, as its main gateway.

Texas is generally flat, but with some surprises.

The hill country just north of San Antonio is a delightful contrast to all around it, whilst the east has some of the state’s most dramatic mountain and canyon scenery.

New Mexico has a fascinating history with a Native American and Spanish past. See sophisticated Sante Fe or arty Taos at the base of the Sangre de Christo Mountains.

Colorado is famed for the Rockies and its impressive mountain scenery including ski resorts like Vail and old mining towns like Breckenridge. There’s also Mesa Verde National Park, the beautifully preserved historic railroad town of Durango and just outside Grand Junction is the stark and stunning rock formations of Colorado’s National Monument.

In South Dakota, the ‘cowboy town’ of Rapid City is a perfect location from which to explore the deserted landscape of prairies and pine forests. To the south west of the city is Mount Rushmore with the carved heads of four US presidents.

Create your perfect Western Holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

Everyone! Whether you’re looking for outdoor adventure, quiet solitude, simply stunning landscapes, history and heritage or even round the clock entertainment, you’ll find this and more in America’s west.

No visit to this region would be complete without a glimpse of the Grand Canyon. Truly an awesome sight, no photograph can do it justice and no words can describe its beauty. Accommodation is limited close to the South Rim and therefore booking early is recommended, although nearby Flagstaff has plenty of hotels and is just 80 miles away. Why not include a stay in Phoenix or Scottsdale where attractions include Casa Grande Ruins, Heard Museum, Old Town Scottsdale, Phoenix Zoo and the Desert Botanical Garden? We also highly recommend your itinerary includes Utah’s wonderful National Parks – from Zion with its incredible canyons and spectacular views; Bryce where thousands of delicately carved spires rise in brilliant colour; to Arches, which as its name suggests, consists of over 2,000 amazing arches; and Canyonlands where the Colorado and Green Rivers meet and rush through 2,000 foot canyons dating back over 300 million years. Our featured self-drive and escorted coach tours highlight some of the best cities and National Parks in the region. See pages 78-79 for details. If you prefer to put together your own Wild West road trip, our selection of touring hotels can be found on pages 80-81 – although many more are available.

Classic Las Vegas We suggest a five night stay to ensure you see as much as possible and can truly soak up the atmosphere. For any first time visitor, exploring the Strip is a must, either by car or by foot. Highlights will include wandering through some of the most impressive casinos, snapping photos of the most iconic hotels, checking out some of the fun shops and enjoying some of the most popular free attractions. Looking for something adventurous?

Visit the Stratosphere and the 108-story controlled free fall of Sky Jump or dive with sharks at the Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay. Las Vegas is also home to some off the most spectacular shopping in the world including The Fashion Show Mall, Las Vegas North Premium Outlets, Miracle Mile Shops and Crystals at CityCenter. And what can we say about the nightlife in a city which never sleeps? Aside from the 24 hour gambling, there are spectacular shows to suit every taste and famous names are often in concert for extended runs. Nightclubs on the Strip don’t wake up until midnight giving you time to fit in dinner and a show beforehand.

Las Vegas, The West and beyond What better way to complete your touring explorations of the Wild West than with a few days’ rest and relaxation beside a Californian beach.

Should you prefer not to drive, there are regular flights between Las Vegas, Phoenix or Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego.

Another popular twin centre option is a city stay in the glittering city of Las Vegas before flying onwards to the silky sands of Mexico’s Caribbean coast.

What you need to Know

The prices All accommodation and tour lead-in prices shown are based on the best value travel dates in low season. Flight prices to the USA change constantly so call for today’s best available deals.

Flight time Flight duration from the UK to Las Vegas or Phoenix is approximately 10½ hours while Denver and Dallas are about 10 hours flight time.

Best time to go As you would expect from such a vast region the weather does vary considerably and is not easy to summarise in such a small space, however it is a year round destination. Generally speaking expect high temperatures during the summer months, particularly in southern Nevada, Arizona and Utah. The National Parks will be very busy in the summer months and accommodation gets booked up quickly. Winters tend to be cool rather than very cold, although mountain regions do experience snow.

Hawaii

A Polynesian Paradise of lush rainforests, secluded beaches, dramatic volcanic scenery - you cannot fail to be captivated by Hawaii’s treasures. Whether you seek peace and tranquillity, history and culture or the buzz of an exciting, busy resort town, there is a Hawaiian island to fit the bill.

Palm-fringed beaches, rocky shores, waterfalls, jungles and plantations combine with the easy Polynesian charm which attract so many to the land of Aloha, as the ideal spot to relax and unwind.

Why visit Hawaii?

Overflowing with natural beauty and rich in culture, each island has its own charm – from vibrant Honolulu on Oahu and the pristine beaches of Maui to picturesque Kauai and volcanoes of Big Island – Hawaii has a broad appeal.

Oahu is where most people start their visit to Hawaii.

Whether you try your hand at surfing on Waikiki Beach or head to the north shore and watch the experts ride the monster waves; admire the historic architecture of Iolani Palace or pay your respects at Pearl Harbour; take a hike on iconic Diamond Head or explore the shops of Honolulu, you’ll find variety at every turn.

82 Hawaii 2016 USA 082-083 Hawaii intro.indd 2

Maui, the second largest Hawaiian island, offers 33 miles of superb beaches, crystal clear waters and a dramatic extinct volcano. Dotted with quaint towns and artist communities it is a quieter alternative to Oahu. Places to visit include the old whaling town of Lahaina; the fascinating volcanic landscapes at Haleakala National Park; beautiful Iao Valley State Park and the peaceful town of Hana. Between November to April whale watching is popular and if you’re lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of the humpback whales from shore as they blow.

The spectacular island of Kauai is the lushest and verdant. The pace of life is much slower here but that doesn’t mean there’s a shortage of things to see

and do. Take a glimpse at Waimea Canyon, proudly known as the ‘Grand Canyon of the Pacific’; explore the hiking trails of the Napali coastline for stunning Pacific vistas; kayak down Wailua River, or simply bask on an uncrowded white-sand beach.

Twice as big as the other islands combined, Big Island is home to almost all of the earth’s natural ecological zones; beaches, rainforests, coral reefs, mountain tops, lava wastelands and volcanoes.

Learn about the islands’ culture at Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historic Park; explore ancient ruins at Pu’ukohola Heiau National Historic Site; stroll along a black sand beach; or visit Kilauea, one of the world’s largest and most active volcanoes.

Planning your holiday

What you need to Know The prices All accommodation lead-in prices shown are based on the best value travel dates in low season.

Flight prices to the USA change constantly so call for today’s best available deals.

Flight time There are no non-stop flights to Hawaii from the UK. Flights via Los Angeles or San Francisco to Honolulu take approximately 19 hours.

Best time to go Hawaii enjoys some of the best weather in the world with long days of sunshine and fairly mild year-round temperatures. The official rainy season is November to March but it can rain every day somewhere on every island, however it’s more likely to be a light shower than a downpour.

Create your perfect Hawaii holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

A perfect place for a honeymoon or romantic holiday away from it all with someone special, Hawaii also has lots to offer families– although the long journey may not suit very young children. The islands are diverse, if you like to be where there’s lots going on then we suggest Oahu, but if you prefer a more peaceful sojourn in paradise, then Maui, Kauai or the Big Island won’t disappoint.

If time allows, extend your stay to include the Big Island too; it’s home to sandy beaches, snowcapped mountains, waterfalls, active volcanoes and more. Alternatively, if time isn’t on your side but you want to see as much as possible, consider a Hawaiian Islands cruise. Norwegian Cruise Line’s Pride of America offers a seven night voyage which includes Oahu, Maui, Big Island and Kauai.

See page 15 for details.

Classic Hawaii To truly appreciate Hawaii, we highly recommend an island hopping holiday, with at least four nights on each island. Begin with Oahu to soak up the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and Waikiki Beach; fly onwards to Maui where idyllic beaches and striking natural landscapes await you; and then fly to Kauai for the chance to totally relax or enjoy outdoor adventures. Be sure to go to an authentic luau, for a taste of Hawaiian culture and to watch the art of hula.

Hawaii and beyond Hawaii’s far-flung location does involve long flights from the UK, so why not break up your journey with a stay in California before flying onwards to Hawaii?

There are excellent flight links between Los Angeles or San Francisco and Honolulu, so what could be better than exploring the iconic city sights before unwinding on an idyllic Polynesian island.

Alaska & Yukon Territory

One of the most beautiful states in North America, there are few places with the breathtaking views and natural wonders of Alaska. Home to a vast selection of wildlife, mountains, rivers and glaciers, you’ll find it difficult to beat the stunning surroundings of this glorious state.

For those who love the outdoors, hikes and nature trails are available in most regions, which provide an excellent insight to Alaska’s natural beauty.

Why visit Alaska & the Yukon Territory?

The largest state in the USA, Alaska is known as the Last Frontier. It’s a wild and spectacular wilderness with vast landscapes of unfathomable natural beauty that seemingly stretch to infinity.

Yukon Territory, which is set between Alaska and Canada (and administered and governed by Canada), one of the largest and most scarcely populated areas of North America.

The state is typically broken down into five regions: The Inside Passage, a collection of islands, glaciers and fjords, often explored as part of a cruise; South central, the most populous region and home to Anchorage, the largest city; southwest Alaska, a watery area peppered by the Aleutian Islands and only accessible by plane; the interior, with Fairbanks as the gateway to the Arctic; and the Far North, extending up to the Arctic. Additionally, there’s

The real highlights of Alaska are the national parks.

Denali National Park, where keen hikers will find a variety of trails, is home to North America’s highest mountain Mount McKinley and lots of wildlife.

Seward is the entrance to Kenai Fjords National Park, where whales, sea otters, seals and puffins crowd the waters. Alaska’s beautiful state capital, Juneau is gateway to the Glacier Bay National Park which contains some of the world’s most impressive tidewater glaciers.

86 Alaska & Yukon Territory 2016 USA 086-087 Alaska & Yukon Territory intro.indd 2

Other must sees include the tiny character filled town of Ketchikan which is a great place for kayaking; there’s also the gold rush town of Skagway; and Tok which is recognised as the gateway into Alaska. In Yukon Territory you’ll find bustling Whitehorse with its range of heritage sites; the sleepy town of Beaver Creek; the Klondike gold-rush town of Dawson City and the incredibly scenic Haines Junction.

Whichever region you venture to, Alaska is very much about the great outdoors with activities including hiking, kayaking and rafting to salmon fishing and dog sledding, not to mention the diverse range of wildlife, including bears, moose, whales and the iconic bald eagle.

Create your perfect Alaska holiday It’s the perfect destination for…

Explore more…

Such an exciting destination does present challenges, so for that reason Alaska & Yukon Territory is recommended to those who are welltravelled and have a keen sense of adventure.

Taking a cruise is often the best way to see this region, particularly if planning your first visit, to fully experience the rugged beauty and extraordinary landscapes.

For those wishing to delve deeper and discover more about this region, we can help plan a self-drive tour.

Fly into Anchorage before hiring a car or motorhome and setting off along the scenic highways for an unforgettable driving experience. Our selection of touring hotels can be found on pages 88-89.

Alaska and beyond With so much to explore few will look to combine with other regions. One option if taking our featured cruise, is to extend your stay on the west coast of Canada where further escorted coach tours or independent explorations are possible.

Classic Alaska Our 7 night Roundtrip Vancouver cruise (page 15) includes picturesque ports along with stunning scenery of waterfalls, forests, snow-capped mountains and huge, ancient glaciers calving icebergs into the blue waters. You’ll cruise the fabled Inside Passage sailing close to steep mountain walls; weave through the Tongass National Forest at Tracy Arm Fjord; explore Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan too; and hopefully catch a glimpse of monumental chunks of ice thundering into the sea at Glacier Bay.

Mexico

Cancun

The picture-perfect beaches of Mexico’s Caribbean coast cannot fail to impress with expansive stretches of powdery white sand lapped by turquoise waters. Add some of the best snorkelling and diving in the world, a pumping nightlife and rich cultural heritage and you’ll agree Mexico has it all.

Why visit Mexico?

Oozing with holiday atmosphere Cancun is pure fun in the sun, while spectacular Riviera Maya offers a slice of Mexican heritage as well as silky sands and crystalline waters.

Once just a small fishing town, Cancun today is a huge resort comprised of a downtown area with its markets and local cantinas, and then the Hotel Zone that has restaurants, shopping malls, nightclubs and an extra-long stretch of beach. This shining international destination is very much the pleasure city of Mexico, with an intoxicating atmosphere.

Just south of Cancun extending along the Caribbean coast of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula is the beautiful Riviera Maya, which is perfect if you’re looking to escape the crowds.

90 Mexico 2016 USA 090-091 Mexico intro.indd 2

Home to some of the most stunningly beautiful beaches in all of Mexico the Riviera Maya is also renowned for the many natural attractions in the area, including the rich, colourful coral reefs which are a haven for snorkellers and scuba divers alike.

You’ll also find amazing cenotes (natural sinkholes) and subterranean rivers found nowhere else in the world.

If you can tear yourself away from the sand and sea, you’ll find many more activities such as thrilling jungle tours, fantastic golf courses, cycling and hiking the virgin natural reserves or even zip lining through them, which will certainly thrill most adventurers and extreme sports enthusiasts.

Perhaps no visit to this region would be complete without immersing yourself in the mystical Mayan culture through a visit to nearby Mayan ruins, such as Tulum, Coba, Uxmal and, of course, the worldrenowned Chichen Itza.

Of course, another of the great joys of visiting Mexico is its cuisine. Emulated around the world, its crispy tacos, zesty salsas and tasty tortillas, burritos and fajitas are amongst the mouth-watering specialities on offer. They’re best washed down with one of Mexico’s great beers or perhaps a shot of tequila.

Anyone seeking a value for money and easily accessible destination where both the standard of accommodation and service levels are high.

Close by you can visit ancient Mayan ruins at Tulum, Coba and Uxmal, while a few hours inland, the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza are arguably the best restored and most impressive of the Yucatan Maya archaeological sites.

Bermuda

Hamilton

St George’s, Bermuda

“You go to heaven if you want, I’d rather stay here in Bermuda”, so said Mark Twain of Britain’s oldest colony and with 75 miles of glorious coastline and an abundance of stunning scenery, it’s hard to disagree.

Horseshoe Bay

What you need to Know

Why visit Bermuda Quintessentially English, Bermuda exudes sophistication and colonial charm. Lying in an astoundingly beautiful stretch of the Atlantic Ocean, Bermuda is comprised of around 180 islands, islets and rocks. Most are uninhabited but the eight largest islands are all linked by bridges and causeways to form this subtropical paradise.

A treasure trove of natural beauty with quaint pastelcoloured cottages and lush green foliage dotting the landscape, and pristine pink sand beaches leading to glistening turquoise waters where an extraordinary world of breathtaking coral, shipwrecks, underwater caves and multi-coloured marine life await exploration.

Culturally, Bermuda is a fascinating mix of old colonial, American, Caribbean and African influences with English style pubs, afternoon tea, red post boxes and a love of cricket along with calypso tunes, steel drums and reggae.

At just 22 miles in length and 2 miles wide, it’s easy to explore. Away from the beaches there are world class golf courses, peaceful hiking trails, botanical gardens and a rich maritime history to discover.

The capital, Hamilton has some lovely shops, an array of wonderful restaurants along with great bars where you can try Bermuda’s national drink, a Dark n’ Stormy!

For panoramic views of the city and harbour head to Hamilton Fort with its cannon-strewn gardens, historic ramparts and fortifications.

There are certainly worse places to disappear!

Holiday Information

Passports: For visits to the countries in this brochure, you will need a full British passport, which is machine readable, valid for six months beyond your date of return.

USA entry requirements: Full British passport holders in possession of return tickets to the USA may enter the country under the Visa Waiver Programme (VWP). All visitors wishing to enter the US under the VWP scheme need to obtain an electronic travel authorisation prior to travel by completing an online application at: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov. However holders of non machine readable passports will require a visa and holders of passports issued after 26 October 2006 which do not contain a biometric identifier will also require a visa. British passport holders born outside the UK may need to register with US immigration services prior to travel and are advised to contact the nearest US Embassy for further information. If you were born in the USA, you must travel using a US passport.

Any person who has ever been arrested (even if this did not result in a conviction) or convicted of any offence (even if the conviction is “spent”) is required to obtain a visa.

If you are in any doubt as to your eligibility to enter the USA under the visa waiver programme, you should check with the Embassy before you make your booking, as we will not be liable for any costs incurred for amendments or cancellation if a visa application is refused. Passengers without correct documentation may be refused boarding at check in. Any expenses or losses incurred will be your responsibility.

Canada entry requirements: Previously, there has been no requirement for British passport holders to obtain a visa for stays of less than six months.

However, The Canadian Government is introducing an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) requirement from 15 March 2016. An online application must be made at www.Canada.ca/eta and the cost will be CAD7. The ETA, once obtained, will be valid for five years. The changes will mean that passengers arriving into Canada by air will be able to move through immigration more efficiently.

Be aware that if you are travelling to Canada with a transit stop in the USA, you must comply with USA entry requirements (including obtaining an ESTA before departure).

The ETA is only required if you are arriving into Canada by air. ETAs are not required if you are arriving by land or sea.

Non-British passport holders, or those who are British “subjects”, rather than “citizens” should check with the relevant embassy regarding entry requirements.

Be aware that if you are travelling to Canada with a transit stop in the USA, you must comply with the USA entry requirements pertaining to passports and visas. Non-British passport holders or those who are British “subjects” rather that “citizens” should check with the relevant embassy regarding entry requirements..

Local assistance: Please note that, as our holidays are designed for the independent traveller, we do not employ representatives in any destination in this brochure. In the unlikely event that you require assistance while on holiday, an emergency number will be detailed in your travel documents.

Transfers: Transfers are not included in any of our holidays, although in many destinations, we are able to pre-book them at an additional charge.

If you’re looking for the best value flight or the most direct route, all our holidays can be packaged with a choice of some of the best scheduled airlines in the world offering a variety of routes and therefore, potential stopovers. By selecting only quality airlines, Premier can offer the flexibility of virtually daily departures and holidays that can be tailored to your exact requirements.

Holiday Information 97 18/09/2015 14:27

Important Information Brochure accuracy Every care has been taken to ensure that all information detailed in this brochure was accurate at the time it went to print. However, due to circumstances beyond our control some details may change. It is possible that an advertised facility may be withdrawn or temporarily unavailable according to season or due to weather conditions, lack of demand, a private function, for maintenance, renovation etc. We will advise you of any significant changes to facilities at the time of booking or as soon as practical if information is received after your booking has been confirmed and if time permits. Similarly, some attractions mentioned in the brochure may not be open year round or on every day of the week.

Please ask at the time of booking if this is important to you. Weather information, mileage and maps given in this brochure are guidelines only.

Building and development work Some locations may unavoidably have work underway to public areas and facilities. Whilst we will endeavour to advise you of any building or refurbishment work underway at any properties you have booked, which may adversely affect your stay, we cannot anticipate where work will take place outside of the hotel grounds. All the hotels featured strive to maintain high standards and, as such, there may be the necessity for some ad-hoc and unforeseeable maintenance work.

Room occupancy In North America, the typical bed configuration is two queen beds or one king size bed (or occasionally one double bed). All occupants of the room (adults and children) are accommodated in the existing bedding.

Whilst requests for double or twin beds will be forwarded to the hotel, they cannot be guaranteed.

Where three or more adults share a room, accommodation will be in a standard sized room with two queen beds or one king size bed. If a folding bed (rollaway) is required, this must be requested at the time of booking and an extra charge is normally made by the hotel which is payable locally. In some hotels, the design of the room may make it unsuitable for an extra bed and extra adults may only be accommodated in the existing bedding.

Early or late arrivals Rooms are normally available on your arrival day from 1500 hours onwards and you will be required to vacate your room by mid-day on your departure day.

Meals Meals are not included unless otherwise stated and detailed by us on your holiday confirmation.

Child reductions Children stay free at most hotels subject to maximum if they share existing bedding, which may include sharing a double bed with adults. If a folding bed is required for a child, this should be requested at the time of booking and a charge will be made locally for this. Whilst some rooms featured in our brochure are suitable for larger families (i.e. 5 or 6), the bedding may still only comprise two double beds. It may, therefore, be necessary to book and pay for folding beds (at an additional charge to the brochured room rate) in order to accommodate the whole party in one room. Baby cots can be requested from the hotel in advance and should be requested at the time of booking. Some hotels do make a charge for the provision of a cot (crib) which will be payable locally.

Premier Plus Offers All offers are available for holidays started and completed within the period stated and all nights must be consecutive. They may also be subject to availability and for bookings made by a certain date or may be withdrawn at any time without prior notice. Offers for items such as champagne are per booking, not per person. Where more than one offer is advertised, these may not be combinable and you may have to choose which you prefer. This will be explained to you at the time of booking.

Honeymoon and anniversary offers If you are celebrating your honeymoon, silver, pearl, ruby, gold or diamond wedding anniversary (offers not valid for other anniversaries) and wish to take up any offer, you must advise us at the time of booking.

You will be required to present your marriage certificate to claim any offers.

Special requests If you have any special requests relating to your holiday, you should advise us when you make your booking. Although we are happy to pass on any requests to our suppliers, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled and any additional costs involved will be passed on to you. Special requests do not form part of your contract with us.

Assistance requirements We are delighted to offer advice for travellers with special needs or disabilities. Not all hotels have adapted rooms and some airports and types of aircraft may not be able to accommodate certain requirements. In order for us to ensure that we can meet your needs, and that we comply with airline regulations, it is essential that you complete an assistance requirements form. The detailed information you provide will enable us to ensure that all the suppliers of services for your holiday

are aware of your requirements and we can, if necessary, make adjustments to your itinerary at the outset to accommodate them. If the form is not sent to you, please ensure that you ask for it.

Pregnancy If you are pregnant, please inform us at the time of booking. Both airlines and ferry companies place restrictions on travel in the last trimester of pregnancy. These do vary from one company to another, so check with us and we will give you current advice.

Tours Some tours may only operate if a minimum number of people book. Where this is the case, we will notify you at the time of booking that the tour is subject to a minimum number of people and should the tour be cancelled, you will have the choice of accepting an alternative (subject to availability) or, if the tour is a significant part of your holiday, you will be offered the option to cancel your holiday and receive a full refund of all monies paid.

Prices and payment Telephone quotes, including any holidays not featured in our brochure where tailor made arrangements apply, are subject to written confirmation. We are happy to tailor-make an itinerary to match your exact requirements. This means that you can opt to upgrade flights to premium economy, business or first class (occasionally, contracts require that domestic flights will be booked in economy class). We include all prepayable airport taxes. Your confirmation invoice will clearly detail what is included in your holiday price.

Payment can be made by cheque, debit or credit card.

Please note that payments made by credit card may be subject to a handling fee.

Some items cannot be included in the holiday price. In some countries, for example, airport taxes are payable locally on departure or hotels may levy a service charge per room night and in some cases, local authorities impose tourism taxes, which are compulsorily added to hotel bills and payable locally. The charges may be introduced/changed/increased without notice and are beyond our control. Similarly, you are responsible for obtaining and paying for any visas required. You may also find there is a local charge for car parking at hotels, the use of tennis courts, hire of equipment, sun beds, watersports, health clubs, baby sitting, children’s clubs, cots, porterage etc.

Minors Some countries have special requirements relating to entry for children under 18 years, which may involve you obtaining particular documentation. For example, you may be required to obtain an affidavit from a notary if a child is not being accompanied by both parents. You should check this information with the relevant consulate or embassy.

Safety and security You can obtain current travel advice from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Travel Advice Unit at their website www.gov.uk/knowbeforeyougo. If the Foreign and Commonwealth Office advises against travel to a destination, then we would take appropriate action and seek to arrange an alternative holiday, subject to availability. In such an event, your holiday cost would be adjusted to reflect the revised arrangements.

In some cases it may be necessary to cancel your holiday completely, in which case you will receive a full refund of all monies paid to us.

Data protection policy In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements we, and your travel agent, need to use the information you provide such as name, address, any special needs/dietary requirements etc. We take full responsibility for ensuring that proper security measures are in place to protect your information. We must pass the information on to the relevant suppliers of your travel arrangements such as airlines, hotels, transport companies etc.

The information may also be provided to security or credit checking companies, public authorities such as customs/immigration if required by them, or as required by law. Additionally, where your holiday is outside the European Economic Area (EEA), controls on data protection in your destination may not be as strong as the legal requirements in this country. We will not, however, pass any information onto any person not responsible for part of your travel arrangements. This applies to any sensitive information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities, or dietary/religious requirements. (If we cannot pass this information to the relevant suppliers, whether in the EEA or not, we cannot provide your booking. In making this booking, you consent to this information being passed on to the relevant persons.)

Please note that where information is also held by your travel agent, this is subject to your agent’s own data protection policy. Your data controller is Premier Holidays. You are entitled to a copy of your information held by us. If you would like to see this please contact us. We may make a small charge for providing this to you.

4. Your holiday price a) We reserve the right to alter the prices of any of the holidays shown in our brochure. You will be advised of the current price of the holiday that you wish to book before your contract is confirmed.

Offers are valid at the time of going to print, but may be changed or withdrawn without notice. We will confirm details of applicable offers at the time of booking. b) When you make your booking you will need to pay a deposit. Deposit amounts may vary and we will advise you of the amount at that time. c) The balance of the price of your travel arrangements must be paid at least 10 weeks before your departure date. Occasionally, for certain types of bookings, the balance may become due earlier than this. If this is the case, you will be advised of this at the time of booking.

If the deposit and/or balance is not paid in time, we shall cancel your travel arrangements. If the balance is not paid in time we shall retain your deposit The price of your travel arrangements was calculated using exchange rates quoted in the Financial Times Guide to World Currencies on 24 August 2015. d) For Advance Registrations (which will be clearly detailed on the invoice) where we cannot confirm all components of the booking at the time of issue, we will endeavour to do so as soon as possible.

Should we be unable to confirm any components you may opt to accept revised alternatives with any applicable price adjustments or cancel your holiday and receive an immediate refund of any monies paid.

e) 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 and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked.

However there will be no change within 30 days of your departure.

We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent 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 £1.00 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% 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 (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges.

We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. 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.

Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your holiday cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased

Booking Agreement Your contract is with Premier Holidays Limited, a Member of ABTA. 1. Your holiday contract When you make a booking you guarantee that you have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of this contract. A contract will exist as soon as we issue our confirmation invoice. This contract is made on the terms of this booking agreement together with the essential information, 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.

2. Your financial protection We provide full financial protection for our package holidays and flight only arrangements. a) For flight-based holidays this is through our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 2713.

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 aren’t 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. b) When you buy a package holiday that doesn’t include a flight, protection is provided by way of a bond held by ABTA with International Insurance Company of Hannover SE and Royal and Sun Alliance Insurance PLC. If you are a resident of the Channel Islands or Isle of Man, then no ATOL financial protection is provided.

3. ABTA We are a Member of ABTA, membership number V0762. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct. We can also offer you ABTA’s scheme for the resolution of disputes which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to use ABTA’s simple procedure. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com.

in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. f) When you buy a flight-based holiday, all monies you pay to the travel agent are held by him on behalf 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 for 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 him, 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 him on our behalf at all times.

5. If you change your booking If, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your travel arrangements in any way, for example your 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 per person, and any further cost we incur in making this alteration. You should be aware that these costs could increase the closer to the departure date that changes are made and you should contact us as soon as possible.

Note: Certain travel arrangements (e.g. some types of airline ticket) may not be changeable after a reservation has been made and any alteration request could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements.

A ‘change’ is deemed to be a correction or an enhancement to the existing holiday. If you request major alterations to your holiday (this includes, for example, changing dates of travel, substituting destinations or any other changes which significantly alter the original holiday) this will be termed a cancellation and charges, as per clause 6, will apply.

If you alter any arrangements during your holiday (for example, checking-out of the hotel early or returning a hire car early) no refund for unused accommodation or services will be made. Where flights are not used, this is likely to result in all other flights on your itinerary being automatically cancelled by the airlines and we will not be liable for any losses or expenses you incur as a result of this.

6. If you cancel your holiday a) You, or any member of your party, may cancel your travel arrangements at any time.

Written notification from the person who made the booking or your travel agent on your behalf must be received at our offices. Since we incur costs in cancelling your travel arrangements, you will have to pay the applicable cancellation charges up to the maximum shown.

Note: If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges. b) If one member of the party wishes to cancel, this may mean that the accommodation booked will be underoccupied and will result in the remaining passengers having to pay any applicable supplements to retain the booking e.g. changing a twin room to a single room. The person who cancels will still remain liable to pay cancellation charges as per the scale below.

No of days before departure when we receive your cancellation 71 days or more 70 – 57 days 56 – 43 days 42 – 29 days 28 – 15 days 14 days or less

Amount of cancellation charges expressed as a percentage of the holiday price (excluding insurance) Deposit only 30% 50% or deposit if greater 70% 90% 100%

}

c) If you are prevented from taking your holiday you may transfer your booking to someone who could have booked the holiday originally, subject to the approval of all interested suppliers. You must give us reasonable notice before the departure date to enable us to change airline bookings, etc - this normally requires 21 days notice. A transfer fee of £25 per person will be charged plus any additional costs we incur. If you transfer the booking before paying the balance of the price, you will remain liable to pay it (and our transfer fees) if the transferee fails to do so. Airlines generally do not permit names to be changed on bookings and it may therefore not be possible to transfer your booking. In this case, your booking will be treated as a cancellation and you will be liable to pay cancellation charges as detailed above.

7. If we change or cancel your holiday It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your travel arrangements, but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance.

Occasionally, we may have to make changes and we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these changes will be minor and we will advise you or your travel agent of them at the earliest possible date.

We also reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your travel arrangements. For example, if the minimum number of clients required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel it. However, we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 10 weeks before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance. If we are unable to provide the booked travel arrangements, you can either have a refund of all monies paid or accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value). If it is necessary to cancel your travel arrangements, we will pay to you compensation as set out in this clause.

In accordance with EU Regulation 2111/2005 we are required to advise you of the actual carrier operating your flight/connecting flight/transfer. We do this by providing details on your confirmation invoice.

Any changes to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate. Such a change is deemed to be a minor change. Other examples of minor 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 standard.

If we make a major change to your holiday, we will inform you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure.

Examples of “major changes” include changes to your UK or end destination airport, alteration to the times of outward or return flights by more than 12 hours, changes to your resort area or an offer of accommodation of a lower official classification. You will have the choice of either accepting the change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us if available (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling your booked holiday and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. In all cases, except where the major change arises due to reasons of force majeure, we will pay compensation as detailed below:

If we are notified, in advance, by the airline of schedule changes affecting your itinerary, we will notify you (if there is time to do so before departure). If the timing change is two hours or less, this will be advised to you on your travel documentation when issued. If the schedule change is more than 12 hours, you may choose to cancel your holiday and receive a full refund and, save where the change is for reasons of force majeure, you will have a right to compensation.

We cannot accept responsibility if you miss your departure because you check in late. Whilst we cannot guarantee specific seat allocation, some airlines do accept requests which we will be pleased to pass on.

All flights are non-smoking services.

10. If you have a complaint Every effort is made to ensure that the accommodation and resort descriptions we use are fair and accurate in order that you can select the best possible holiday to suit your own personal requirements and tastes.

However, if you find on arrival that the accommodation reserved for you or the resort area are not to your personal liking, then we will endeavour to arrange a suitable alternative. Naturally, this will be subject to availability and any extra cost will have to be paid by you at the time of your request to change. Please note, this may be in addition to any cancellation fees levied by the original accommodation booked, and subject to any applicable administration fees.

If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of your holiday, please inform the relevant supplier (e.g. your hotelier) and our resort representative/head office immediately who will endeavour to put things right. If your complaint is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of your return home by writing to our Customer Services Department at Premier Holidays, Westbrook, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 1YG giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. Please keep your letter concise and to the point. This will assist us to quickly identify your concerns and speed up our response to you.

It is strongly recommended that you communicate any complaint to the supplier of the services in question as well as to our representative (or our Head Office in the UK) without delay and complete a report form whilst in resort.

If you fail to follow this simple procedure we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under this contract. Please also see clause 3 above on ABTA. 11. Our liability to you We accept responsibility for the proper performance of the services we have contracted to provide and if they are not provided to a reasonable standard (in No of days before Amount per person you will compliance with local authority minimum standards) departure receive in addition to due to the fault of our employees, agents or suppliers,

Your right to a refund and/or compensation from us is set out in clause 7. If any payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by the airline will be deducted.

N.B. This clause does not apply to any separate contracts that you may enter into for excursions or activities whilst on holiday.

12. Prompt assistance in resort If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed as a result of failures attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services, or as a result of failures due to unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall, and you suffer an injury or other material loss, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances.

13. Passport, visa and immigration requirements Your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. Everyone, including infants and children, must be in possession of their own passport, which must be valid for six months beyond the date of return. The names shown on your confirmation must match your passports. If you are in doubt about your travel documentation, you should check with the Passport Advice Line on 0300 222 0000.

We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements and we will not be liable for any costs incurred or for any changes to arrangements or loss for cancellation.

14. Excursions Excursions or other tours that you may choose to book or pay for whilst you are on holiday are not part of your package holiday provided by us. For any excursion or other tour that you book, your contract will be with the operator of the excursion or tour and not with us. We are not responsible for the provision of the excursion or tour or for anything that happens during the course of its provision by the operator. Should you opt to prebook tours prior to your departure on your cruise, these do not form part of the contract with Premier Holidays.

Where such tours are made available, the cruise company provides these as agent for the operator and your contract is directly with them.

15. Insurance It is advisable to take out an insurance policy at the time of booking as you are at risk as soon as your deposit is paid to us. If you fail to make appropriate insurance arrangements in a timely manner, we will not be liable for any losses or expenses which you may incur for claims which might normally have been covered by insurance in respect of circumstances for which we are not responsible. Where you take our insurance, the premium must be paid at the time of booking.

If, once you have considered the cover in detail, you decide that it does not meet your needs, you may have a full refund of the premium if you return the documents within 14 days, unless you have travelled, made a claim or intend to make a claim. After 14 days, the insurance premium is not refundable under any circumstances.

This brochure is our responsibility, as your tour operator.
