Hello,
My sister and I are going on the Aegean Classic Cruise at the end of August. We’ll be spending about 2 days prior to the tour beginning exploring Athens. I believe that the ship disembarks at Pireaus at 11am. Our flight is not till later that evening… any suggestions on what to do in between disembarking from the cruise ship and going to the airport?? Thanks..

Just a quick question, how many stamps do you need to post a letter or even just a postcard to Australia? South Australia specificly but I wouldn’t think that would matter to much. Because my plan is to buy stamps before I start my tour, the day before (even if it’s a while away lol)just wondering how many stamps per postcard. Thanks

Hi
I’m about to go on contrasts tour and was wondering how much swiss spending money I would need for the 2 days we are in Switerland??
Have heard it’s expensive there and I won’t be able to take $$ out from ATM so need to have enough cash to take with me.
Any advice on how much we need would be great
Thanks

Im sure this topic had been brought up many times, but I was still a little confused…
I was wondering what were people experiences with cash versus using a card (like Travelex). I was going to get a Travelex card, becuase I didnt want to carry too much cash on me. But can I use it like a VISA card when I go into shops? Or do I have to take out money when I see an ATM? Do many stores accept cards or do they only accept cash? What about bars, are they cash only too?
Sorry for all the questions…Im a virgin when it comes to going to Europe
Thanks!

Hey!
My boyfriend and I are going on the Magic Tour in May and I just wondered what kinds of amenities the hotels have available. Do they have toiletries such as shampoo in the hotel or should we bring our own? Also, do they have hair dryers or should I pack a travel one? Thanks!!

Hey guys, not sure if this has been discussed already, but didn’t really come up with anything using the search function.
I’ve decide to take a couple of tours alone, since im sick of waiting for friends to ‘save money’ although it wont be till later 2010/ear;y 2011, just trying to sort some things out.
Basically wanted some advice on taking more than one european tour, has anyone done this? simply because they don’t go to all the places i wanted, eg, i want to do the spainish spree, then the 45 day europe one, then also the russia/scandinavia one. would anyone suggest doing this or just stick to one?
Ill also be doing USA and egypt (through topdeck) but probably just before europe.
im a very shy person, so im a bit worried about travelling alone, Although im sure itll be fine from what iv read on here!
also apart from the quoted prices, how much should i expect for spending money per day?

Hello,
Just wondering is there a way to find out, ahead of time, who the tour manager for your tour date will be?
If so is there a place with TM reviews?
Since reading some of the convos i find getting a good or bad tour manager is luck of the draw.

Just been reading everyones messages and I am both excited and **** scared! How many peeps travel alone? Im worried its gonna be just me and everyone else in couples/groups, does everyone do their own thing or does everyone stick together? (travelling alone for the first time, can you tell?)
