We will meet with our Maltese Tour Leader,
at Forni-Magazino Terminal at 10.30 am
from where we will embark on the MSC
Preziosa.
The cosmopolitan city of Marseilles lies
on the southeast coast of France and is
France’s second largest city, after Paris
and also the capital of the Provence- Côte
d’Azur region. It is a rich, pulsing port city
bubbling over with history and cuttingedge creative spaces.
The port city of Civitavecchia lies about an
hour from Italy’s capital. Rome probably
needs no introduction – it is the ultimate
vacation destination - there is perhaps no
other city so crammed full of history, with
layer upon layer of fabulous ruins and
imperial temples, not to mention Etruscan
tombs, early Christian churches, medieval
bell towers, Renaissance palaces and
baroque basilicas.

Valencia is the third biggest city in Spain
and it boasts many great historic, cultural

is the home to paella and (reputedly) the

pleasantly surprised by Valencia and the
warm, inviting nature of her residents.

Formerly a quiet fishing village on the southern coastline of France near Marseille, Cassis has
grown into a charming small town and popular international tourist resort. The town is particularly
famed for its cliffs, calanques – steep-walled inlets – and the local white and rosé wines. The tour
begins with a 1-hour coach transfer, followed by a local train to the town. Once there, you will have
plenty of time to stroll around Cassis’ charming streets, lined with the brightly- coloured homes
of the locals. Your tour ends with your return trip back to the ship. This excursion is without a guide.

SUGGESTED EXCURSIONS
Enjoy a 1-hour coach drive to Cefalù, a small yet pretty town situated 1-hour away from Palermo
and which was founded by the Norman King Roger II in the XII century on the site of an earlier historic
settlement. We will visit Cefalù Cathedral, the “Duomo del Cristo Pantocratore”, an example of
Norman-Romaneque architecture with stunning interior Norman-Byzantine mosaics. Free time to
walk around the narrow, atmospheric streets; look out for the intriguing public wash houses, a legacy
of medieval times and which are carved into the rock. Quality local craft shops make Cefalù a great
place for souvenir shopping. Please note: this tour includes walking on uneven ground and is not suitable
for guests with walking difficulties or using a wheelchair. Conservative attire recommended for visiting sites of
religious importance. (Duration: 5 hours)
(The tour leader will only be present on these suggested excursions, once a minimum of 25 persons has been reached. Otherwise you
will be accompanied by an MSC representative only)
Dinner seating preference is on request and subject to confirmation once on board since it all depends on that week’s availability.
First seating will be anytime between 6.30pm / 7.30 pm
Second seating will be anytime between 8.30 pm / 9.15 pm

GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS
The holidays in this programme have been planned
and are operated by the Tour Operator/Travel Agent,
Hamilton Travel of Floriana, to ensure maximum
client satisfaction. We want you to enjoy your holiday
as much as possible and return to Malta relaxed,
above all satisfied that you have been given good
value for money. These terms and conditions have
been laid out according to international rules to
ensure that the agreement between Hamilton Travel
and the client are clear and fair to both parties. These
conditions cover every aspect of your holiday, from
the moment you book until the moment you return
home. The general conditions clearly spell out our
obligations to you and also your commitments when
you book your holiday with us.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
1. YOUR BOOKING
After you have paid your deposit (deposit on
normal tours is €250, deposit on cruises, USA tours,
football tours and concerts is €350 per person, which
is subject to change from time to time) and a receipt
has been issued by us, the booking is considered
confirmed and that you have read and understood
these Terms and Conditions. We will reserve your
tour. The deposit and the final payment can either
be settled by cheque or cash. Where any discounts or
special offers are applicable, credit card payments
are not accepted. Your booking is considered
confirmed for all other persons travelling with you, as
well as for people in whose name you have made
the booking. The people travelling with you are also
considered to have read and understood the Terms
and Conditions. Usually, a tour will be cancelled
if there are not at least 30 people booked on the
tour, in which case you will be informed at least 14
days before the departure date. Payments should
ideally be made by Personal Cheques, and are only
accepted up to 15 days before the departure dates
(this is to ensure that there is enough time to clear
any cheques in the event there should be a problem). In the case of Charters, the departure times are
subject to change due to changes in clearance by
foreign airports. In this case, Hamilton Travel is not
responsible for the change. Payments by credit cards
are not accepted if you have benefited from a special
offer and/or discount.
When making a booking, it is important that
the names you give us are exactly as shown on the
passport. If the names given to us do not match the
passport and an air ticket is issued erroneously there
is a €50 charge to change the names. This fee is
imposed by the airline. Where discounts and/or any
special offers are applicable credit card payments
are not accepted. Should one still wish to pay by credit
card the discount/special offer will not be applied.
2. OUR PRICE POLICY
The prices indicated here are those set at the
time of publication of the brochure and are the
price per person. Children’s rates apply provided
the children share the room with 2 or 3 adults. It
is possible that at the time of booking, the actual
price of your chosen holiday may have increased
from that shown in the brochure. In this case, we
reserve the right to make such an increase in price. We guarantee that the price of your tour will not be
subject to any type of additional payment, except for
the following reasons: Once you have booked your
tour and paid your deposit, the price will only change
if there is a fluctuation in exchange rates or an
increase in taxes or ‘levies’ or an increase in aircraft
26 | MSC PREZIOSA Malta to Malta Cruises 2016
fuel prices, imposed by the airlines, or any other
increase that affects the price directly or indirectly. Today, a ‘city tax’ is being introduced by a lot of cities.
We have no control when these are introduced
and sometimes these need to be paid on the spot
upon check-out. Our package prices include a 3%
service charge. During the tour, there is the chance
that an extra payment may need to be made if the
Tour Leader deems such a payment necessary, for
example: When the coach is required for services not
included in the programme. Tips for the driver are
also collected by the Tour Leader during the tour and
the amount given is up to each individual’s discretion.
3. OUR ASSURANCE ON STANDARDS, DUTIES &
OUR OBLIGATIONS
Our brochure descriptions are based on the
information obtained from hoteliers and other service
producers. Hotel rooms and ship cabins are always
small (sometimes very small). Hamilton Travel, only
works with hotels that have single or twin / double
bedded rooms. Triple or quadruple rooms are hardly
ever available. A third and/or fourth person wishing to
share a twin / two bedded room, will most probably be
given either a small extra folding ‘camp bed’, a bunk
bed or a sofa bed, which will make accommodation
quite uncomfortable. In America and Disneyland
Paris, three or four persons wanting to share a room
will always be given just two double beds (single beds
for each person will not be available). It is international
policy that check-in of rooms is not done before 3 p.m.
and that check-out from rooms has to take place by 9
a.m. When two people book a room for two, Hamilton
Travel reserves the right to provide two single beds
or a double bed. The bathrooms and also showers
may also be very small. The hotels we provide are not
equipped with air-conditioners and a fan will not be
provided, unless otherwise stated in the programme. This also applies to the coaches we use, unless
otherwise stated. Hamilton Travel is not responsible
for anything that happens to a client outside of the
hotel and for any services not offered directly by the
hotel where the client is staying. Hamilton Travel is
also not responsible for any theft that may occur in
the hotel or the coach and that is why we insist on
an adequate insurance cover. Lunches and dinners
are always served in three courses. No choice of food
will be provided, neither can changes be accepted,
for example, having meat instead of fish. Portions
are moderate (although sometimes they can be
small) in size. When buffet meals are provided, a
choice is available. During dinner, any drinks ordered,
including water and soft drinks, are always to be paid
for separately, this is international practice. The use
of the mini-bar and telephone, when available, are to
be paid by the client. There could also be an extra
charge for the use of ‘pay’ television in the room,
imposed by the hotel. Please confirm this with the
Tour Leader. In the event you do not confirm or ask the
Tour Leader, Hamilton Travel will not be responsible for
refunding any extra costs for services not included in
the programme. Unless otherwise specified, entrance
fees to museums, shows, boat or train trips, and the
use of cable cars are charged separately. Excursions
(visits to places of interest) that are listed as ‘optional’
are charged separately and unless otherwise stated,
these cover the cost of the coach transfer, while
entrance fees are charged separately and no local
guides will be provided. The prices are clearly listed in
the price box on the programme. Only items listed in
the section ‘Included in Price’ are in fact already paid
for. Please note that the brochure is published many
months before and therefore there may be times
when an advertised facility or entertainment or the
availability of a performer/performers is not available. Bad weather, essential maintenance or cleaning,
lack of support or demand, may all affect the
actual availability of particular activities or facilities;
so, for instance, can such things as local licensing
laws, religious or local holidays, or local authority or
government restrictions. Similarly, touring itineraries
may have to be changed sometimes at short notice,
due to weather, road or traffic conditions, mechanical
breakdowns, police activity etc. Coaches are not
air-conditioned (except when clearly specified on
a programme) and do not have onboard functional
toilet facilities. Swimming pools may only be
heated in colder weather and the general standard
of hygiene, public utilities, drainage, plumbing and
services in general may not be the same standards
as in Malta. Each group tour is escorted by either a
Maltese speaking tour leader who will be responsible
for the implementation of the programme. The tour
leader is under no circumstance responsible to carry
out work (unless for emergency), over and above the
official programme and is not obliged to accompany
members of the group around shops, flea markets or
theme parks. As a responsible company, we feel it
is important to mention these possibilities, although
they are very rare.
If you have a particular problem, please inform
your tour leader in writing at the time, so that, if possible,
it can be dealt with there and then. Having said all
that, we want to give the following assurance about
our liability to you:- We have taken all reasonable
steps to ensure that proper arrangements have been
made for all the holidays which are advertised in this
brochure. You will appreciate, however, that we have
no direct control over the provision of services to you
by suppliers. Hamilton Travel is not responsible if
any activities are cancelled due to adverse weather,
strikes or the indisposition of the protagonist or
any other circumstance that is not in our direct or
indirect control. Hamilton Travel is not responsible
for any flight delays that may occur and any other
consequences that arise from such delays. We
always try our utmost to communicate your requests,
like rooms nears each other or dinner seatings, to our
suppliers, however, we can never give a guarantee that
these will be definitely confirmed since requests are
always subject to availability. All MSC excursions are
guided by local guides. If the minimum number of
participants required to carry out an excursion is not
reached then the said excursion shall be cancelled.
Neither MSC nor Hamilton Travel shall be held
responsible for any changes in these excursions due
to local feasts or any other local event that prevents
any part or the whole excursion from being carried
out. MSC also reserve the right to change an excursion
at any point in time. Cabin numbers are usually given
upon booking, unless a guaranteed cabin is booked,
however, MSC reserve the right to change this cabin
number at any time, without prior notice.
4. IF WE CHANGE YOUR HOLIDAY ARRANGEMENTS
a. Before departure date – we plan our holidays
to give you the maximum enjoyment. Although it is
unlikely, we may occasionally have to change your
holiday arrangements and we reserve the right to do
so any time. For instance, flight timings may change,
a hotel may close down or be overbooked, we may
have to amend an itinerary, or sales of that holiday
may not reach the level which would be economical
for us to operate. If we have to make any changes,
we will inform you or your Travel Agent as soon as is
reasonably possible before departure.
b. After Your Holiday Has Commenced –
occasionally, it may be necessary, due to unforeseen
circumstances, to change a hotel or some other
part of your holiday arrangement after your holiday
has commenced, in which event we will do our
best to maintain the overall standard of the holiday
arrangements.
5. IF WE CANCEL YOUR HOLIDAY ARRANGEMENTS
We may occasionally have to cancel your holiday
arrangements. For instance sales of that holiday
may not reach a level that would be economical
for us to operate. This cancellation is made at the
discretion of Hamilton Travel. We reserve the right,
in any circumstances, to cancel your holiday and, in
this event, we will return to you all the money you
have paid us or will offer you an alternative holiday
to purchase, of comparable standard, if available. In
this unlikely event we have to cancel your trip, (unless
for reasons beyond our control, i.e. industrial action,
natural disasters, terrorist activities, breakdown of
aircraft or ship etc.), Hamilton Travel will refund you
all money paid for the cost of your holiday plus, the
following amounts as compensation per person:• Notification more than 15 days before departure – nil
• Notification between 8-14 days – €25
• Notification between 0-7 days – €50
6. YOUR FLIGHT
Details of your airlines we anticipate utilising
is shown in the programme. The choice of airline is
exclusively at the discretion of Hamilton Travel. The
right is reserved to substitute alternative airlines and/
or aircraft if necessary. Flight timings are subject to
confirmation and some changes. Our reservation
system will show the latest timings as advised to us. Please check your flight tickets as soon as you receive
them, as they will show the final timing for your flights. Some flights may have intermediate stops en route
and as factors affecting this are not always known
before departure date, we cannot always notify you
in advance. Flights are subject to the granting of
permits and licenses by authorities both in Malta and
overseas. In the event of your flight arrangements
being changed or cancelled, as outlined in this
section and sections 4 and 5, we accept no liability for
extra costs or consequential loss arising, directly or
indirectly, from independent contract arrangements
between the client and a third party. Hamilton Travel
is not responsible for the service given by the airline,
before, after and during the flight. Hamilton Travel is
not responsible if any part of a tour is lost due to flight
delays, breakdowns or similar occurrences.
7. CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE
Transport of any kind is subject to the conditions
of carriage of the company providing that trip. These
conditions are likely to embody the provision of the
law of the country of the company concerned or are
likely to be subject to international conventions with
government (s), any of which may limit or exclude
the liability of the carrier (airline, coach, ship etc).
Women up to 23-weeks pregnant at the end of the
cruise may sail with MSC upon presentation of a
medical certificate stating they are fit to travel. MSC
Cruises cannot accept expectant mothers who will
have entered their 24th week of pregnancy by the
beginning or at any time during their cruise.
8. HEALTH
Health facilities, hygiene and risk of disease
vary worldwide. It is your responsibility to check if
you are healthy enough to travel. In the event you
fall ill, Hamilton Travel is not responsible under any
circumstance, although the Tour Leader will try his/
her very best to offer assistance. You must take all
necessary advice regarding your health and specific
requirements, and also any inoculations you may
need depending on the country you are going to
travel to as soon as possible, to ensure as early as
possible that any medication, such as Malaria pill,
can be taken within the stipulated time (this varies
and could be necessary months prior to departure)
in order for such treatment to be effective on the
departure date. Our advise is that you contact your
doctor or that you phone the ‘International Travel
Vaccination Bureau’ on 21239260, Monday to Friday
between 8.00am and 1.00pm.
9. FORCE MAJEURE
The tour programmes as described can be
changed due to reasons of Force Majeure like
technical faults on planes/ships/coaches/hotels,
strikes, wars, closure of ports, quarantines etc.. In
such case neither Hamilton Travel nor the owners of
the ship/plane/coaches/hotels are held responsible.
If a cruise liner misses a port of call, for the benefit
of the passengers’ safety or due to Force Majeure
reasons, no port taxes refunds will be issued.
YOUR COMMITMENT TO US
1. BALANCE OF PAYMENT
The balance due, must be settled up to six
(6) weeks prior to departure (eight (8) weeks in the
case of a cruise) or immediately in the event you
have booked six (6) weeks prior to departure (eight
(8) weeks depending on trip). If you book from a
travel agent, ensure payment is made to the agent
within reasonable time, in which case the agent can
make payment to us in time. If for some reason
we would not have received your payment in time,
we reserve the right to cancel the booking and
impose a cancellation fee, as this cancellation will
be according to paragraph three (3). If you pay for a
tour to a travel agent, this agent will keep the above
mentioned money as our agent from the time you
pay him until the agent pays us.
2. IF YOU CHANGE YOUR BOOKING
Should you wish to change your holiday
arrangements in any way, we will try our best to meet
your wishes to the best of our ability. A handling fee for
any such change to your booking within six (6) weeks
of departure date will be levied., then we reserve the
right to pass on any additional costs incurred over
and above the standard handling fee above already
charged. Where the price varies depending on the
number of persons booked into the accommodation
and you wish to change that number of persons,
the price will be recharged on the basis of the new
party size as shown on the brochure. Any increase
in the price per person, payable as a result of a part
cancellation (eg: for a hotel room under-occupancy,
changing from twin room to single room) is not a
cancellation charge. A separate cancellation charge
will be levied in respect of bookings cancelled in
accordance with paragraph three (3) below.
3. IF YOU CANCEL YOUR RESERVATION
A cancellation can only be accepted once a
letter has been sent, by either the client who signed
the booking form or by the Travel Agent, through
whom the booking was made. The cancellation will
be valid from the date it is received at our offices. All types of travel insurance are supposed to cover
“cancellations” and for this reason we require that
such travel insurance is purchased prior to travel. The
insurance is to make good for any expenses incurred
by the client who has to cancel their trip. Obviously, as
in any other insurance, certain terms and conditions
are applicable. In the event the client has not
purchased insurance, Hamilton Travel can only refund
the balance that we have not yet paid or are obliged
to pay to any other Third Party. In case of cruises, no
refunds are given back in case of cancellations due
to the fact that these are committed.
4. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
a) It is your responsibility to ensure that you and
those for whom you are booking are in possession
of valid passport and any appropriate visas. Be sure
to check passport and visa requirements with your
Travel Agent, well in advance, particularly if you are
a non-Maltese passport holder. You are responsible
for any charges, fines etc. that may be levied by
authorities in Malta or overseas for non-compliance
of regulations in this area and any such amounts will
be recharged to you.
b) Similarly, it is your responsibility to check with
your doctor as to what vaccinations or inoculations
are advisable for your chosen destination.
c) Airline/Seas regulations state that women 28
weeks or more into pregnancy, at the time of return
travel, must have a medical certificate of fitness to
travel.
d) You must be responsible for a reasonable
standard of behaviour by yourself and by those for
whom you have booked. We reserve the right to
decline to accept or retain any person as a client if
their behaviour is, in our opinion, or in the opinion of the
airline pilot, ship captain, hotelier or accommodation
owner or manager or other person in authority, likely
to cause distress, danger, damage or annoyance to
other customers, employees and to other people or
to property. You understand that we shall be under
no liability to pay any refund or compensation to, or
costs incurred by, any person whose behaviour is
thus unacceptable.
e) It is your duty to purchase Travel Insurance. We provide the service to sell Travel Insurance,
although you are under no obligation to purchase
such cover from us. It is important that you buy such
insurance; in fact you will not be allowed to travel if
you are not insured.
5. IF YOU HAVE A COMPLAINT
We do our best to give you an enjoyable, troublefree holiday, but occasionally even the best laid plans
can go wrong. If you have a problem or complaint
relating to the overseas part of your holiday, you
must advise in writing our tour leader, representative
or agent in your resort at the earliest opportunity, in
order that it may be investigated and we have the
opportunity to resolve the matter on the spot. In
addition, with the exception of cruises, you must notify
us in writing within seven (7) days of the date of your
return from your holiday. Because of the difficulties of
investigating a complaint too long after the event, we
will not accept liability in respect of claims received
after the seven (7) day period, and/or which have not
been reported in writing to the Tour Leader during the
holiday. In this case, it will be assumed that the client
will have renounced the right to take any legal action
against Hamilton Travel regarding their holiday. In any
case, contestations between Hamilton Travel and the
clients will have to be judged by an appropriate court
at the Courts of Justice, Republic Street, Valletta, or in
any tribunal or other court upon which the company
and clients agree upon. Whoever books a holiday
with Hamilton Travel, is considered to have read
the conditions and has accepted them without any
reservations. Regarding cruises, complaints must be
submitted within 2 months after the incident. We shall
strive to address your complaint to your satisfaction
but should you disagree with our conclusions, you can
lodge an appeal to the MCCAA, in line with your rights
as a passenger.
Anyone who books a holiday with Hamilton Travel
will be subject to these conditions and it is assumed
that everyone has read them before booking.
