INSIGHT OR
INDEPENDENT?
Touring independently can be fun but it is also hard
work. You have to plan your route, book your hotels,
pick the sights you want to see, find out how to get
there and check hundreds of timetables and opening
hours. You also must cope with different languages,
currencies, local driving laws and border formalities.
You will often spend more time organising your
holiday and dealing with hassles than enjoying it!
Travel solo and you’ll never know what you missed.
You’ll see each destination just as a tourist, knowing
only what the guidebook tells you, and you’ll stand
in line at every attraction. With Insight, we will
show you each place through the eyes of a local.
Art experts, local historians, artisans, chefs, wine
experts and raconteurs will personally introduce
you to their home town, their area of expertise and
their culture. Not only that, when you visit those
famous places you’ve dreamed about, most times
we’ll take you straight to the front of the line with
priority entrances and privileged access.
There are also other factors to consider. While
independent touring may seem cheap initially, the
extra costs you’ll incur along the way will inevitably
make your holiday much more expensive. When
you add hotels, tips, car rental and insurance, petrol,
parking, rail tickets, taxis, all your meals and drinks,
sightseeing, entertainment and entrance fees, the
overall cost will escalate dramatically. When you take
an Insight escorted holiday, everything featured in
your itinerary is included. To appreciate the true value
of this, simply take the cost of a tour and divide it by
the number of days you will be on holiday. Insight will
often work out to be less per day than just one night’s
comparable accommodation booked by yourself.
Furthermore, if anything goes wrong on an
independent holiday, you are literally on your own in
a foreign land without real assistance. With Insight, you
will be travelling with an expert Tour Director and
fully supported by a company that you can depend
on and trust.
Finding your way isn’t easy.
Independent costs keep adding up.
Vatican museums line at 9.00 am, stretching 1.1km in length. Visitors wait up to 4 1/2 hrs! With Insight, you’ll go straight to the front with VIP priority entrance.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What modes of transport does Insight use? Insight
engages many styles of included transportation to give you
an exciting and varied holiday. From high-speed trains, alpine
cable cars and hydrofoils to open-top taxis, river cruisers and
horse-drawn carriages. Enjoy them all. You’ll also travel on our
full-sized, luxury high-deck motor-coaches with just 40 seats
and up to 100% more legroom than other operators. It’s like
travelling Business Class.
Are there other advantages to having fewer seats?
Yes there are. With Insight, it’s not just extra legroom that each
guest enjoys, there’s also the extra window space. You can
recline without crushing the person behind and you have more
room for personal belongings and luggage (our allowance is
actually higher than other operators). It’s also quicker to embark
and disembark, sometimes saving up to an hour or more on days
when there are frequent stops.
2 #InsightMoments
What is the optimum group size for an escorted
journey? We believe Insight has the best possible group size –
an average of 32 guests but a maximum of 40 guests, this
ensures a higher level of service and more personal space. Larger
groups than Insight can get a little crowded. Legroom on motorcoaches with over 40 seats will be considerably more constrained,
there will be less window space for viewing sights and scenery,
and there are more people using the facilities and services.
Are smaller groups on smaller coaches better? Small
is not necessarily optimal either. Legroom is more cramped
on smaller vehicles, the windows are smaller and lower down,
luggage space is constrained, the ride is not as smooth and, with
fewer travellers, choice of companionship may be limited. Not
only that, having just one person acting as both driver and guide
means service and personal attention simply will not match the
higher staff to guest ratio of Insight, with our dedicated team of
a professional Tour Director and an expert Driver.

WHAT ABOUT CRUISING?
England
To help you decide whether an Insight escorted journey or
a cruise is right for you when you visit Europe, we suggest
asking yourself a very simple question: ‘Do I want to cruise
the Mediterranean, or do I want to experience all that
each country has to offer?’
On a cruise, sightseeing is always restricted to day trips
to nearby sites or cities on time-limited shore excursions.
In Rome for example, the return journey to and from the
port at Civitavecchia takes some three hours, leaving just
a few hours to sightsee before returning to the ship. On
an Insight holiday, you’ll travel on leisurely itineraries
far beyond the coastal attractions and truly get under
the skin of each place. Your Tour Director will tailor your experience according to your interests and preferences and
introduce you to new people and places. Leisurely, inclusive
sightseeing, authentic local restaurants, multiple-night stays
and premium hotels in desirable, central locations ensure
you get the very best out of each destination, day and night.
What’s more, you’ll be travelling with a small group of no
more than 40 like-minded guests so you’ll never have to
wait hours for your baggage or stand in line for tenders and
shore excursions.
seldom travelling longer than a couple of hours or so without a
photo stop or visit. There’s also an on-board washroom on all
our 40-seat touring coaches (except in Morocco). Seat rotation
each day guarantees everyone gets to enjoy the great views,
while leaving the driving to us saves you the hassle of planning
routes and negotiating traffic. We’ll even take care of extra
expenses like refuelling, paying tolls and parking charges.
Which countries does Insight visit? Insight offers holidays
to almost every country in geographical Europe, plus superb
programmes in Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Israel and Morocco too.
Then there is the USA, Canada, Hawaii and the Indian
sub-continent, including India, Nepal, Bhutan and Sri Lanka.
Who travels with Insight? All our guests share a passion for
travel, fun and discovery. Travellers may come solo, as couples,
families or with friends and they join us from all over the English
Poland
Belgium
Many of Insight’s guests have previously cruised the world’s
oceans and enjoyed the experience of a holiday afloat. In
some parts, it can be a good way to see remote coastlines or
islands; Insight links land-touring with cruising in the Aegean,
parts of Eastern Canada and Alaska’s Inside Passage for this
very reason. But if you want to explore all that Europe has to
offer, then a cruise may not be the answer as over 90% of
Europe’s greatest art, architecture and culture is far from

Escorted Journeys
If your only experience of coach travel
has been on a shore excursion or school

is paramount, so we reconfigure
Insight touring coach seating
for just 40 guests – creating
up to 100% more legroom
than a typical coach.
speaking world. One thing is
certain, all that have discerned to travel with Insight will
get the best holiday and a more complete experience.
Will I have time to explore on my own? At Insight,
planning the perfect escorted holiday is our speciality. Of course
we include the ‘must see sights’ and ‘truly local experiences’
and much more, but we also carefully balance our itineraries to
ensure plenty of free time to do things your way, so you can
really immerse yourself in each location.
Will I be able to access Wi-Fi on my trip? The majority of
Insight hotels have free Wi-Fi access in lobby or bedroom areas
(see the Wi-Fi symbol on our hotel list overleaf). Wi-Fi is also
generally available on touring coaches on most trips.

INSIGHT’S UNBEATABLE
HOTEL LOCATIONS
Unlike other operators, Insight’s hotels always put you at the
heart of the action, with superior locations in the city centres
and the best scenic areas on every tour.
When you are in Paris, for example,
you won’t want to waste precious time
travelling by coach to the centre from the
suburbs, taking expensive taxi journeys or
navigating complicated metro routes. With
Insight, it’s different. You will stay in hotels
chosen for their great locales and proximity
to the key sights and bustling nightlife that
you have come to experience.
ancient palaces of the Grand Canal. We
never book properties in Mestre on the
industrial mainland, or on outer islands
like Lido.
Location is crucial in small towns and
scenic areas too. Take Killarney, Insight
stays a minimum of two nights in the
centre of this picturesque town, bringing
alive the Ireland you always imagined.
Other operators often stay only one night,
or just pass right through to their hotels
in less attractive places like Tralee or
Kenmare. The experience is very different.
In Venice, the story is the same. Insight
puts you exactly where you want to be.
We only use hotels on the historic islands,
with easy access through the waterways and
canals to famous St Mark’s Square and the

4 #InsightMoments
You'll consistently stay in great hotels
on every Insight holiday, but some stand
out for their unique history, location or
truly exceptional ambience. We call them
'Signature Hotels' and you'll recognise them
with the symbol above.
In the Loire you’ll stay in the five-star Château
Rochecotte for instance. On Lake Windermere
we’ll accommodate you at the Old England
Hotel, the finest first class hotel in the Lake
District. In Scandinavia, you’ll relax at the
Grand Hotel Oslo, and in Southern Italy, you
might stay at the Capri Palace, voted ‘hotel of
the year’ two years running by Insight guests.
HOTEL UPGRADES
We strive to consistently deliver the best
available hotels in every city.
That's why, each year you’ll find that we
regularly upgrade hotels all over Europe. In
2015 the Waldorf Astoria Caledonian (below)
is just one. It has been added to our collection
of Edinburgh hotels.

BROCHURE TERMINOLOGY EXPLAINED
UNDERSTANDING WHAT OUR PRICES INCLUDE
The prices listed in our brochures cover everything included in
the itinerary – hotels, all applicable sightseeing and admissions,
transportation via motorcoach, cruise or rail, a professional
Insight Tour Director, local experts and guides, meals and
drinks and luggage handling. Tips are included for all services
provided by dining-room staff, chambermaids and porters at
hotels, docks and train stations while on tour. When cruising,
port taxes and tips to crew are also included.
HOW TO CUSTOMISE YOUR TRIP
Insight does not nickel and dime on activities. We include all
your must-do sightseeing. But we also know you want to
choose what to do in your free time so our carefully designed
optional experiences allow you to tailor your trip. It could be
a seafood lunch on the island of Burano in Venice, the Moulin
Rouge in Paris or dining in family homes in Sarajevo. Not
only will we arrange the best available seats but we’ll also
chauffeur you door-to-door, saving all the hassles and costs
of doing it on your own. See our itinerary listings on our website
for suggested optionals for your trip.
COMMON TERMS & DEFINITIONS
FastTrack is our guest registration system you must complete
prior to travelling. It gives us vital information about passports
and so on, to meet regulations and smooth your journey, but it
also provides us with information you care to share about your
personal interests so your Tour Director can help you get more
out of your holiday, tailoring activities to your preferences.
Visit refers to a specific site; applicable fees are included.
See or view means you walk or drive to or near the site during
a guided tour to see it clearly, often with a brief stop and
photo opportunity.
Sightseeing refers to seeing the city or site through the eyes of
a local with one of our specialist guides, art experts, historians
or artisan craftsmen.
Orientation points out places of interest, allowing you to go
and explore them on your own.
Signature Experience includes valuable sightseeing or
experiential and authentic activities that other operators will
typically charge as extra.
Journey Pace depicts the pace of your trip as a sliding scale
on each itinerary page. Those at the more ‘Lively’ end of the
scale will enjoy optimised destinations, giving maximum
geographical coverage in a shorter space of time. The midpoint mainly denotes a majority of two-night stays, with a few
one-night stays on shorter driving distances. Itineraries at the
‘Leisurely’ end comprise of majority two, three or four-night
stays. This definition also applies to ‘Easy Pace’ tours, which
have a MINIMUM three-night stay at every stop.
Welcome Dinner is the perfect way to meet your fellow guests
and Tour Director at your hotel or a city restaurant. Normally
held on the first evening of the tour.
Signature Evening refers to a special night of iconic
entertainment, often with dinner specific to the region you are
visiting included.
Dine-Around Evening allows you to choose from a selection
of handpicked, local restaurants, with your choice of à la carte
or table d’hôte dining included to give the perfect blend of
regional flavours and great ambience. Drinks and wine are on
us too!
Celebration Dinner is a farewell evening with dinner and wine,
providing the perfect way to share tour memories with new
friends while dining in style. Included on almost every itinerary.
MORE LEGROOM – MORE COMFORT
WITH INSIGHT VACATIONS
Your personal space is precious, that’s why we make more
of it. Travelling on an Insight Vacations luxury touring
coach is a special experience like no other. Comfort is
paramount so we allow a maximum of 40 guests on each
tour, removing excess seats to create up to twice as much
legroom as other operators’ coaches. When it comes to
giving your legs the extra centimetres they deserve, we go
the extra mile.
COMPLIMENTARY
Wi-Fi INCLUDED
IT’S LIKE TRAVELLING BUSINESS CLASS
Enjoy up to 100% more legroom and more window space for spectacular high-deck views.
