If you are interested in having a Footprints Custom Tour prepared for you, this is how we work:

Initial Interview
First, we take the time to discover where it is that you want to travel, and if you are not sure, we have plenty of suggestions for you. (You can even take a look at a number of sample itineraries within our website.) Second, we take the time to discover what your interests are, and whether you have any specific sites that you would like to include in your travels. Third, you let us know when you would like to travel, and in what style (boutique hotels, 4 star hotels, 5 star deluxe properties, etc.), and whether you would also like us to take care of your international flights.

Preparation of a draft itinerary and “ballpark” price
Then, utilizing our extensive personal travel experience, along with a worldwide network of trusted travel professionals, we will get to work on constructing a draft itinerary for you, along with a ‘ballpark’ price for your tour. Once you have had a chance to study the itinerary, and understand just what we can do for you, you can decide whether you would like us to continue to work on your trip. If you choose to proceed, we then require a deposit payment toward the cost of your trip. (Trip cancellation insurance is also available, and highly recommended.)

Fine Tuning
Once we have received your deposit, we will continue to work on planning your trip, tinkering with and fine-tuning the itinerary until you are satisfied that we have come up with the perfect trip for you.

Pre-Departure Materials
We then prepare a complete package of pre-departure materials for you, including everything from information on visas and vaccinations, to what-to-bring lists and background information about your destination.

Final Payment
The final payment for your trip becomes due two months prior.
