ITINERARIES
Please note that an existing itinerary can be tweaked at no charge, but should you want a completely new itinerary a $250 deposit is required before I put everything together for you.
The $250 is applied to your total cost if you take the trip, but is non-refundable if you cancel. Please be aware that I do not have the resources to freely assemble itineraries unless you are completely serious about photo travel with Travel Images. To this end a non-refundable $250 deposit is required before proceeding with step two, see below, but is applied to your total cost if you take the trip.
DEPOSITS
'By request' deposits are 50% for any size of group once you have agreed to the quoted rate and the outline of your customized itinerary. Until your deposit has been received your requested dates cannot be reserved. All other terms and conditions apply as outlined here except for credit card/online deposits. There is a 3% credit card fee for US based clients, and 4% for international clients. To avoid the fees you can pay your deposit by check.
HOW TO A EARN FREE TRIP FOR YOURSELF
This applies to trips of over 7 nights, and a minimum of 7 people including yourself. Discounts per person do not apply if you choose this option.
Before you round up your friends with a sharp spear, I first need to know to know where you intend to travel, for how long, and how many people do you expect in your group including yourself. Once I have an outline of these basic facts, I can then make a commitment to you in writing.
If your group number falls short of the size you proposed, we will revert to giving each client a 10% discount plus any other applicable discounts.
YA' JUST GOTTA GET OUT OF TOWN SOON?!
Please know that I can assemble a custom trip at very short notice. Just ask as I have a 'can do' attitude!
TELL ME ABOUT IT
Email me if you're interested in having me assemble a personal itinerary. If you wish, I can then make it available to the remainder of my photography clients if you happen to have a small group, or if you request I do so. Generally though, 3 or more participants works best for everyone from an economic standpoint.
THE STEPS . . .
STEP 1: Send an e-mail with the information below included. With those details I can estimate costs and provide a quote. Nothing is booked at this time, and the trip details provided will constitute of the number of nights for your trip, the overnight locations, and the cost estimate.
In your email please include:
Your name, address, and phone number
When?: Time of year, and a second option
Where to?: One destination or several?
Existing itinerary?: If so, which one?
How long for?: A few days? 2 weeks? More?
Number of people in your group?: Costs decline with each additional traveler
Your specific interests?: Landscape? Nature? Urban? Wildlife?
Preferred pace of trip?: One night in each spot? More thorough?
Air fares: I recommend you book these yourself, though I can do so on request
Anything else I should know?: With detailed information I can quote quickly and accurately.
STEP 2: If you approve of the quote we can then move onto step two which requires an enrollment form and a $250 deposit. To accomplish this I will most likely request a little more detail to finish the step 2 outline. It is also fine to add or subtract days to suit your travel goals and budget at any time, as I will of course, compile the itinerary best suited to your preferences.
STEP 3: After your 50% deposit is received I will finalize the itinerary and reserve rooms, flights, land transport etcetera.
