Will the sightseeing tours be in English?
Yes. All tours (those conducted by local guides and by your tour director) will be in English.
Must I join the group for all the included guided tours?
During the tour you are completely at liberty to enjoy your vacation as you wish. If you prefer to spend time at your leisure on a day that includes a guided tour, you may certainly do so. If the group is transferring from one city to the next, however, you must continue on with the group. If you choose not to join a particular sightseeing or other included activity, a refund will not be provided.
What are optional excursions? How do I purchase them?
On almost every tour we offer optional excursions to enhance the cultural experience for our travelers. You may purchase optional excursions up to 20 days prior to departure. In most cases, you can also book and pay for optional excursions on the tour. We accept U.S. dollars as well as Visa, MasterCard and American Express.
Please Note: Reservations for the Guided Tour of Vatican City must be pre-booked 35 days prior to your departure due to new restrictions imposed by the Vatican.
You can also sign up and pay for optional excursions online by logging into your online account at www.goaheadtours.com/myaccount. You will be asked to enter you customer number and web password, which can be found on your invoice. Once you have logged into your account select your upcoming tour, which you will find listed on the left and click on Add Optional Excursions.
Will I receive a voucher for my optional excursions?
If you have reserved an optional excursion, you will not receive a voucher. You Tour Director will be notified of the optional excursions you have reserved in advance.
Do optional excursions sell out?
No. There will always be enough spaces on our optional excursions to accommodate all travelers on that tour.
