Why choose a Cruise and Tour?

A cruise and tour combines a guided land tour with an overnight or multi-night cruise, giving you the opportunity to experience even more of your chosen destination.  

CRUISE

LAND TOUR

HANDPICKED HOTELS

We carefully select our ships to ensure they meet our standards. Cabins are air-conditioned and outward-facing, and ships typically feature facilities such as an outdoor pool, gym and casino, as well as bars and restaurants.

For the land portion of your tour, you will travel aboard our uniquely customized coaches with unobstructed views and twice the legroom of a regular coach.

Whether it's a boutique city-centre property or a serene countryside escape, all of our hotels are handpicked to ensure they meet our exceptional standards.

What does the tour cost include?

The prices listed in our brochure and website cover all hotel accommodations, all applicable sightseeing and admissions as per the itinerary, motor coach, cruise or rail transportation, services of a professional Insight Travel Director, all meals as shown in the itinerary and luggage handling. All tips have been included for services on trip by dining-room staff, chambermaids and porters at hotels, airports, docks and train stations.

What is the difference between a definite departure and a departure that is not marked definite?

A definite departure has reached the minimum number of guests for the tour to operate. If a tour and departure date you are interested in is not yet definite, do not let this discourage you from booking. The more paid guests we receive, the odds of the tour operating increase.

In the slim case that we happen to withdraw a tour you are booked on due to a lack of numbers, you are entitled to a full refund on the funds already paid towards Insight Vacations or if flexible with your time, we can move you onto another departure.

When do tours become designated definite?

As a rule of thumb, a tour becomes a DEFINITE departure once we have sold approximately half of the maximum capacity of a specific departure. On average because a sold-out Insight Vacations accommodates 40 guests, a tour is designated definite at the 20 guest mark. 

What does it mean if a departure says Call Us. And what does On Request mean?

A departure listed as Call Us on the website is almost full. In this scenario, one of our Travel Experts will need to confirm if the tour is still available.

If you select a departure and then receive a message saying that the departure is On Request, this means availability is limited. You will still be able to complete your booking request but your place won't be confirmed immediately. General tour requests usually take 24 – 72 hours to get confirmation. Your place on an On Request tour will likely be confirmed.

If you have selected additional hotel nights and the hotel is listed as On Request, the time to confirm this can vary. We aim to get requests answered in 24 – 72 hours.

Can I change my date and/or trip at any time?

Insight Vacations guests can book with confidence. You're free to change your travel plans up until your final payment is due. If you are within the cancellation period, additional charges will apply.

All changes are subject to differences in rates and availability. This policy only applies to your Insight Vacations tour, airlines will have different policies and costs.

Please note: additional amendment fees may be incurred. For full details, please see our Booking Conditions page.

What happens if I can’t go on my tour?

For bookings made through a Travel Agent, please contact the agent if you're unable to travel.
