The exposure to so many different aspects of Chinese culture really provided a true view of China and the Chinese people -their strengths and struggles. What made this trip the trip of a lifetime for all of us on this tour, however, was Lee. His compassion, kindness and concern for each of us was amazing!

14 THE MEANING OF FAMILY FOR TRAFALGAR, OUR DEFINITION IS SIMPLE. Family is at the heart of everything we do. We are, and always will be, a family owned and operated company. This photo (right) of The Travel Corporation (TTC) Chairman, Stanley Tollman, and his brother, my father Arnold Tollman, was taken in London s Trafalgar Square in the 1950s. Two young brothers looking forward to a future in travel. And today, I m reminded of how very far they have come. 7 years since the launch of Trafalgar, Brett Tollman, CEO of TTC, and I came to Trafalgar Square to reflect on that very special and significant moment in time shared between our fathers. A moment, a journey, where family is paramount. As a company, Trafalgar is the cornerstone, and we form part of a family of brands. Our sister companies in The Travel Corporation their logos below from whom we share knowledge, stories and experience. Intricately bonded and connected by our love for travel. And finally, I think about our broader Trafalgar family and particularly the ten years of Be My Guest experiences we ve shared. These experiences that enable you, our guests, to connect with new people and places; dining in local family homes, learning to cook regional meals, and discovering some of the most beautiful landscapes that will leave you in total awe. For me, this is what family is all about: connection. So, on these trips across Asia, I invite you to the Hutong areas of Beijing for a traditional home cooked meal; to learn the local customs during a 'Be My Guest' Japanese ryokan home experience; to enjoy the vibrancy of flavours and culture in Cambodia. I invite you to travel with your family, to meet my family, and to connect with families across the globe.

You must accept these risks involved in travel to any country that may experience security diffi culties and accept responsibility for your own travel decisions. WHAT S INCLUDED IN THE GUIDED VACATION PRICE Air Transportation Within Asia, included fl ights are outlined in each itinerary page price panel. Guests traveling on any Internal Asia fl ight must provide their full name (as appears on passport), date of birth and gender.

Trafalgar may exclude an individual from participating in a guided vacation or an activity if the individual s participation poses a threat to the health or safety of others. This decision, made solely by Trafalgar, to exclude an individual will be based on an individualized assessment based on reasonable judgment that relies on current medical evidence or on the best available objective evidence to determine the nature, duration and severity of the risk, the probability that potential injury will occur and whether reasonable modifications of policies, practices or procedures will mitigate the risk. No refunds will be given if the decision is made to exclude a guest. - Trafalgar does not provide personal devices (such as wheelchairs, hearing aids or prescription eye glasses) or services of a personal nature (such as eating, toileting or dressing).

Any necessary medical attention must be sought at a local facility, if available, at the guest s expense.

Your regular health insurance benefits may not apply abroad. - In purchasing your vacation, you attest that you are physically fit for it. If you have concerns please request additional details about your vacation from your Travel Agent or Trafalgar. - Some guided vacations include rough terrain, extensive walking over cobblestone streets, uneven pavement, steps and/or locations which may not be easily accessible or accessible by wheelchair. During the guided vacation, Trafalgar may make arrangements with carriers, hotels and other independent suppliers to provide travel services.

Some experiences involve outdoor activities and/or can be physically demanding. You must make your own decisions about experiences and participate only in activities that suit your physical ability: we suggest that you speak with your medical provider if you have questions about your abilities. We recommend you check whether any insurance you have also includes your participation in adventure activities you may undertake. Trafalgar may, in its sole discretion, decline booking any guest or remove any guest who cannot comply or refuses to comply with Trafalgar s terms and conditions. If this occurs, you are responsible for the cost of travel back to your hometown and Trafalgar shall not be liable for your losses and no refund shall be provided. Behavior We are here to provide the best services possible but in doing so we will not tolerate abusive or aggressive behavior from our guests. We will refuse to deal with and may terminate the vacation of guests who assault our Company Representatives or who are abusive or aggressive. When you make a booking, you accept responsibility for the proper conduct of all members of your party during your stay. We reserve the right at any time to terminate the travel arrangements and/or cease to deal with any party member(s) whose behavior, in the reasonable opinion of us or our suppliers, may cause danger, upset, disruption or distress to anyone else or damage to property. Full cancellation charges will apply and no refund will be made. We shall have no obligation to pay compensation or meet any costs or expenses (including but not limited to alternative accommodation and return transportation arrangements) guest may incur as a result of the travel arrangements being terminated.

If improvements can be made, or if circumstances beyond our control make changes necessary, we reserve the right to vary itineraries and to substitute hotels. At certain peak periods multiple departures may operate, sometimes in reverse order; hotels may vary from those stated on the itinerary pages. On guided vacations which include cruises, the ship may be changed for operational reasons. Departures in early and late season are potentially operated in cool weather conditions. As a result, itinerary variations may occur. Certain activities may not be precisely as described or may not be available due to seasonality or weather conditions. We will try to notify you or your Travel Agent of changes. If your enjoyment may be diminished by such limitations, please check with us or your Travel Agent before making a reservation. In the event that we make a major change to your vacation (which does not include, for example, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same standard, or alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 1 hours) we will inform you or your Travel Agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure date. You will either have the choice of 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, but these booking terms and conditions will continue to apply to any alternative booking), or canceling your booked vacation and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. Trafalgar s Be My Guest experiences are unique and take place in singular locations. In the unlikely event that our local hosts are unable to welcome Trafalgar guests, Trafalgar will attempt to find an alternate experience or a highlight meal will be provided in place of the Be My Guest experience. Holidays & Changes During local or national holidays, certain facilities such as museums, sightseeing trips and shopping may be limited or unavailable. In such instances itinerary changes are made by Trafalgar seeking to reduce inconvenience to guests. Such changes are deemed not to be a major change to the itinerary, and no compensation will be payable to guests. Holidays, closing days and other circumstances may necessitate a change of the day of the week for scheduled regional meals, sightseeing or other activities. If you feel your enjoyment might be diminished by any of these circumstances please check with the respective national tourist office before selecting a specific departure date. Extended stays If you arranged with us to remain at a destination before or after your guided vacation, your stay will be at your sole expense as is the transfer to either the hotel or airport. Please see the Extend your Vacation section for a list of pre- and post-guided vacation accommodation. Space is limited and can only be booked for the nights before and/or after each guided vacation. Breakfast and luggage handling is not included unless otherwise noted. Trafalgar provides complimentary transfers for guests booking pre and post night accommodation when this is booked through Trafalgar. If your extra night accommodation is not the hotel where your guided vacation begins or ends, you will be responsible for your transfer arrangements at your own expense.

Regular comfort stops are made on traveling days. Many hotels, restaurants, trains, cruises and other venues are 100% smoke free. Guided Vacation Cancellation Trafalgar reserves the right to cancel or re-schedule any guided vacation departure in any circumstances, including in accordance with operating requirements or circumstances beyond its control. If cancellation is made by Trafalgar any time prior to the departure date of the guided vacation except when you failed to pay the final balance on time, Trafalgar will either refund the amount received for the guided vacation booking, or offer a comparable vacation if available. Trafalgar will refund any difference in price if the alternative is of a lower price however, the guest will be responsible for additional costs if the alternative is priced higher. Trafalgar is not responsible for other travel arrangements affected due to our cancellations and is not liable for any cancellation penalties incurred on other travel arrangements including air tickets. Travel Insurance Trafalgar recommends that all guests purchase comprehensive Travel Insurance. Certain countries have a requirement for foreign visitors to have valid medical insurance on entry.
