Gift vouchers can be requested with our After Sales department on 0800 988 5811.

A condition of your booking is that you’re suitably insured for your trip which must include COVID-19 cover. We strongly recommend this is purchased as close to your booking date as possible, to cover you for any unforeseen cancellations. If you’re travelling within the next 12 months, are over 50 and are interested in a quote with Saga, please call 0800 302 9712.

Unless otherwise specified on the tour page, we regret we cannot accept bookings for children younger than 12 years on the date of departure as our holidays are not suitable for children. Single parents or other adults travelling with children (under 18 years) should be aware that some countries require documentary evidence of parental responsibility before allowing lone parents to enter the country or, in some cases, before permitting the children to leave the country.

Further information on exact requirements can be obtained from the relevant embassy of the country/countries to be visited.

Immunisation requirements can change without notice and inoculations/precautions can be specified as a condition of entry, or just as an advisable precaution only. We will advise you of any destinations that stipulate compulsory inoculations as a condition of entry.

For other immunisations, local conditions are subject to change and we strongly suggest that you consult your GP or one of the specialist vaccination centres for more detailed and current information at your time of travel.

The Department of Health also offers travellers health advice on www.travelhealthpro.org.uk, www.fitfortravel.scot.nhs.uk or www.dh.gov.uk/travellers.

Where flight schedules allow, we can offer you the option to fly internationally from your local airport (subject to availability). When taking this option, your flight may not arrive at the same time as the main group, in which case it will be necessary for us to arrange a private transfer from the airport to your first hotel (and from your last hotel to the airport).

You must let us know if you or anyone in your party suffers from a serious medical condition or disability before a booking is made. Titan Travel cannot provide individual assistance with boarding coaches or other forms of transport, baggage handling, walking or other personal requirements, etc. and clients should be confident that they can do these tasks unaided. We are happy to give advice and assistance with the choice of your holiday, which will be dependent upon the nature of any disability. In order to ensure your enjoyment of the holiday, we ask all clients to provide full details of any disability or special requirements at the time of booking. Please see our Accessibility and Support page for more information.

Please note the following advice is only valid for British Citizens.

Travel to a non-EU country

Some countries require at least 6 months validity beyond your planned date of return travel. You should check the expiry date on your passport and view the FCDO travel advice for the destination(s) you are visiting for confirmation of the specific rules.

Travel to an EU country

It is very important that you check your passport carefully as the rules have changed post-Brexit.

Check the passport issue date: Your passport must be no more than 10 years old when you enter your destination country.

Check the passport expiry date: For most EU countries you must have at least 3 months validity beyond your planned date of return travel. You should check the expiry date on your passport and view the FCDO travel advice for the destination(s) you are visiting for confirmation of the specific rules.

Whilst premium and fast track options are available, standard passport renewals can take up to 10 weeks, so you should take action as early as possible.

Whilst we'll let you know if there is anything mandatory needed for your holiday, it is your responsibility to ensure that you understand and adhere to all entry requirements for the countries you’re visiting (and what’s required upon your return to the UK). Our partners at CIBT have created an accurate tool to help you easily check requirements. In addition, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office’s travel advice also contains information on entry requirements. Passport and visa requirements can change before departure; therefore, we recommend you regularly familiarise yourself with the latest requirements. We’re unable to accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport/entry/immigration requirements.

In general, you should apply for your visa around 10-12 weeks prior to your departure date (exceptions may apply). For all tours where a passport is required to be sent to an embassy, it should be noted that once your passport has been lodged with the embassies, you’ll be unable to retrieve it until the visa has been issued. It’s therefore important that you do not require your passport during this period. Titan Travel will not be liable if any delay occurs within the embassies. If you have already made other travel arrangements, please contact us prior to making your reservation.

Customers must obtain their own visas. Should you require assistance with your application, Titan Travel has partnered with CIBTvisas, 08448004650 for this purpose. They’ll provide guidance with the required documents; complete application forms online on your behalf; review your application before it’s submitted to the respective consulate or embassy thus avoiding delays; check the issued visa; and despatch your passport securely as per your instructions. Titan Travel visa applicants receive discounted rates compared to CIBTvisas’ retail/public fees.

The following tours do not require customers to obtain their own visa: Egypt's Timeless Riches, Cairo, Alexandria and a Nile Cruise, Magic of the Nile, Jordan with Ancient Petra, and the Captivating Cultures: A Grand Tour from Rome to Rajasthan by Private Plane.

Travellers who are not British Citizens can also check their visa requirements and usually, CIBT can assist with most nationals who reside in the UK. Their operating hours are Monday-Friday, 9am-6pm.

Please note you’ll be dealing with CIBTvisas direct and, whilst we recommend CIBTvisas, we will not be held responsible for any delays or problems encountered. In the event of cancellations or alterations to your holiday, our Booking Conditions apply, and we will not be held liable for any costs you may incur as a result. You’ll also be responsible for advising CIBTvisas of any changes or cancellations.

Other visa procurement providers are available, and it may also be possible to obtain your visa independently (sometimes at a lower cost), via the relevant country’s embassy website. Please visit the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) website, which provides up-to-date information and advice on each country’s entry requirements.

On selected cruises where a visa is required for a port of call, the cruiseline may arrange a group visa (included in the price of your holiday), however in some cases such as Russia, this group visa only allows you to join organised ship excursions and if you wish to explore independently you must apply and pay for your own visa.

The accommodation in hotels is often twin/double bedded rooms, the majority of which have a private bath/shower and toilet although occasionally this will be a shower and toilet only. On cruise ships, accommodation is in cabins with shower and toilet only. Please note that in rainforest, safari and desert locations, accommodation may be in lodges or campsites where standards may vary and toilet facilities may not be en suite.

The hotel ratings we show are aligned with official local ratings, where such a system exists. In countries with no official hotel grading system we have graded the hotel based on our interpretation of quality, in line with the expectations of our customers. Local standards do vary considerably, and official local ratings should be judged in line with other hotels in the same country, rather than against UK standards.

After Booking

Of course, please contact After Sales by email [email protected] or call them on 0800 988 5811.

In most cases, the flights we book are made as a group booking and for most airlines this means you will be unable to check in online. However not all airlines are the same and in most cases if you have upgraded your flights you will be able to check in online.

We can pass seating requests to the airlines on your behalf. Please note however that whilst each airline will try their utmost to accommodate, we cannot guarantee that your choice of seats will be available or that seats together can always be obtained.

On some tours it may also be possible to pay a small airline fee to select specific seats. Availability to do this will vary depending on the airline/ticket type you are travelling with and aircraft cabin you are travelling in. Please enquire at the time of booking or give our after-sales team a call on 0800 988 5811 to discuss your options.

If luggage is departing the UK on a cruise, then there is no limit however in all instances, your luggage dimensions will still need to adhere to Titan's luggage dimensions to ensure we can safely secure them in your VIP vehicle. Titan's luggage dimensions can be found in the next answer down.

If your holiday includes Titan's VIP Home Departure Service, you are allowed to take only one suitcase and one standard piece of hand luggage per person. The suitcase should be no larger than Height 58cm (23"), Length 73cm (29"), Width 25cm (10"). We are unable to accomodate more than one suitcase per person, or any oversized pieces of luggage. Titan Travel reserves the right to decline carriage and must advise clients travelling with excess baggage, that should separate or additional transport arrangements be necessary, then these will be at the client’s own expense. To avoid any problems with our transport arrangements, possible delay to your journey and inconvenience to your fellow travellers, please ensure that these baggage allowance conditions are adhered to.

Any dietary/medical/holiday requests should be stated at the time of booking. If there's anything that you would like to request after this time please contact the after-sales team on 0800 988 5811 at your earliest convenience.

The easiest way to do this when you've booked directly with us is by accessing your booking via the MyTitan section of our website. Otherwise, you can email us at [email protected].

If you're interested in upgrading your flights please request this at the time of booking or call our after-sales team on 0800 988 5811 for a quote.

Of course, please try to advise at the time of booking otherwise you can contact After Sales on [email protected]. Although we endeavour to meet special requests, this is dependent upon our suppliers and we cannot guarantee that your requirements will be met.

General Information

Please find the full details of our privacy policy by clicking here.

Titan is a member of ABTA and holds an Air Travel Organisers License (ATOL) please click here to find out more.

Please click here to view Titan's full booking conditions.

Despite the fact that single rooms carry a supplement, single accommodation is sometimes not of the same size as twin/double accommodation. This is particularly the case in Europe due to the age and character of many hotels. Single rooms may not always be in the same area of the hotel as a twin/double, and the single supplement does not necessarily mean a twin/double room will be provided for single occupancy unless specifically stated.

Where a hotel has a swimming pool, the period when the pool is available is at the hotelier’s discretion and is often seasonal. This may be affected by weather or essential maintenance.

Please let us know of any mobility requirements for both travel and accommodation at the time of booking. Alternatively, if you have already booked please give our aftersales team a call on 0800 988 5811 and they will be happy to assist. For more information, please take a look at our ‘Accessibility & Support’ pages here.

Coach access to both places visited and hotels may be limited. This is particularly noticeable in Europe due to the historic nature of places/attractions visited. Cobbled streets, uneven steps and terraces are often found in the destinations we visit; it is therefore very important that you take extra care when walking and wear appropriate footwear.

Please take a look at our 'Accessibility & Support' pages here for further details.

To help you choose the most suitable holiday, each one has a rating from 1-3 based on the pace of the holiday and included activities.

Icon GR Pace 1 Web

A leisurely paced holiday

These include mostly short days and days at leisure. This holiday may involve walking reasonable distances, including over uneven ground and negotiating stairs, and there may be periods of standing. You might also be required to board and alight from different types of transport.

Icon GR Pace 2 Web

A moderately paced holiday

Days are longer and excursions may require moderate walking at a steady pace. You might be required to walk further distances, including over mixed terrain and up and down stairs.

Icon GR Pace 3 Web

A faster paced holiday

You’ll need a good level of fitness and mobility in order to partake in physical activities. These could include longer walking tours over greater distances and hikes or treks over challenging terrain and varying inclines.

Please note: This is a guide only. Please be aware that for each level you should also be comfortably able to manage the requirements set out in the lower levels. For cruising, this guide refers to the onboard experience and included excursions only. For more information on whether a holiday is suitable for you, please call our travel advisors on 0800 988 5800.

Where the term ’direct flight’ is applied, this refers to a flight involving no change of aircraft; however the aircraft may make stops en-route. Where a flight is indirect this will be advised to you, although airlines do change their schedules from time to time.

On tour

Porterage is included on most of our tours but do double check the tour on our website as we'll let you know here.

Please note that if your tour includes rail travel, you will be responsible for your own luggage. There may be porters available at a local fee.

Some holidays involve visits to places at altitude, which may affect certain medical conditions. Our Sales department can give details of these tours if requested.

Legal requirements regarding the use of seat belts on coaches vary from country to country. We believe Health and Safety is paramount and so we will not use any seat that does not have another directly in front of it, unless a seat belt is fitted. The Tour Manager will continue to implement the system of seat rotation; however this may exclude certain seats where seat belts are not fitted.

Where the coach on tour has Wi-Fi, this will be indicated in the list of inclusions. Wi-Fi on board coaches is only suitable for light internet browsing, may have a restriction on the total number of users at one time, and availability may vary as connections are dependent upon the local signal strength of mobile networks. The service may also not be fitted to transfer coaches or those used for local services.

Tipping is customary for obtaining good service in the majority of the countries that Titan visit. For service in restaurants, etc this can range between 10 - 20% depending upon the country you are visiting. Guidelines for tipping local guides, your tour manager and driver will be provided in our information pack sent with your Final Holiday Documents prior to travel.

Where meals are included, please note that there may be a set or table d’hote menu and as part of a group booking included meals are generally eaten together at a designated time. When a choice of menu is offered, it is possible that you will have to make your meal selection in advance.

Please note that when requesting special dietary requirements, it should be appreciated that the choice is likely to be limited. Please discuss with your Tour Manager on arrival of any meal requests you many need to make.

Continental breakfast usually consists of tea/coffee, rolls and jam. A buffet breakfast usually consists of tea/coffee, a choice of breads, rolls or croissants, cereals, fruit, cheeses and cold meats.

During local and national holidays, certain facilities and museums may not be available and therefore sightseeing tours and shopping may be limited. Rest assured your Tour Manager will do all they can to ensure you see all you want to and be able to help with suggestions on free days.

We ask you speak to your Tour Manager immediately if you're unhappy with an aspect of your holiday, giving them the opportunity to put it right for you.

On your return

Thank you for taking the time to complete your survey, which allows us to put right any concerns to help improve things for future guests.

We're unable to respond to individual comments so if you do have a concern that you wish to discuss, please contact our Customer Service team by calling 01293 363204 or by emailing [email protected]. Please note we have 28 days, as per ABTA, to fully investigate your points and reply.

You may need your flight confirmation number which we can provide for you, so please contact us via email at [email protected] with your booking number and we'll provide you with any specific details you may need to pursue your claim.

As advised on your paperwork from us, airlines have the right to amend seats at any point right up until departure. As long as they have provided you with similar seats on the aircraft, then we'll be unable to refund any fees paid.

Please contact us at [email protected] with details on the item itself and where the item was last seen, we'll then provide you with the relevant contact details for you to investigate further and arrange the return of your lost property. Titan are unable to arrange for the return of any lost property items nor will we ask our Tour Managers to bring back any items.

If you have lost or damaged luggage you will need to report this to the airline or baggage handling company before leaving the airport. You will be asked to fill out a property irregularity report (PIR) which will be used to assist in tracking your missing luggage and will also be required should you wish to make a claim for any damage caused.

Please be aware that airlines won't accept responsibility for damage that has not been reported to them while you're still at the airport.

We'll try our best to refund you within 14 days of your return however if you’ve not had your refund after this time, you can email us at [email protected] and we'll investigate this for you. If you booked your holiday via a travel agent, we will issue your refund via your agent and you will need to contact them for your refund.

We're sorry to hear you're unhappy with an aspect of your holiday. Please contact our Customer Service team by calling them on 01293 363204 or emailing them on [email protected]. Please note we have 28 days, as per ABTA, to fully investigate your points and reply.

River Cruises

Value for money is always at the forefront when we design our holidays. And because these river cruises are exclusive to us, we’ve been able to wrap all kinds of fantastic extras (as well as our award-winning Titan touches) into our itineraries.

Every exclusive Titan river cruise includes:

  • Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service

  • Return flights or channel crossings from the UK

  • Spacious 15m2 or 16m2 river-view cabins with en-suite bathrooms

  • Breakfast, lunch and dinner

  • Unlimited wine, beer, soft drinks and mineral water with lunch and dinner

  • Welcome buffet

  • Six-course Captain’s gala dinner

  • Bottled water in your cabin, replenished daily

  • 24-hour complimentary Tea and coffee

  • At least three excursions or visits

  • Wi-Fi on board

  • All airport/port taxes and duties

  • Onboard entertainment

  • Quietvox headsets for live onboard commentary and excursions

On selected cruises where a visa is required for a port of call, the cruiseline may arrange a group visa (included in the price of your holiday), however in some cases such as Russia, this group visa only allows you to join organised ship excursions and if you wish to explore independently you must apply and pay for your own visa.

There’s no strict dress code for dining. Smart casual is the norm, although most people like to don a suit or cocktail dress for the gala dinner.

Evenings tend to be fairly low-key on our cruises, but you will have an entertainer on board to keep you occupied along the way. The lounge is the hub of entertainment with a variety of offerings to keep you entertained as you peacefully sail down the river.

On the final night on your trip, you can get dressed up (if you like) for a six-course farewell feast hosted by your captain in the restaurant.

Our river cruises aren’t all about sightseeing and shore excursions, you’ll have plenty of time to relax, too.

On board each ship, there’s an expansive sun deck with loungers perfectly positioned for the best views. Step inside and you’ll find a peaceful reading room and a lounge.

Some cruises will have on board activities on the agenda too, so you could learn the waltz while moored up in Vienna or paint a miniature wooden clog with the help of an artist from Amsterdam.

The food we serve on board is all freshly prepared, with dishes inspired by the regions you’ll be sailing through.

Breakfast is a buffet affair, with eggs cooked to order if you fancy. Come lunchtime, there’s a four-course menu, plus a buffet of sandwiches and pasta dishes (and if you’re out and about, the chef will prepare a packed lunch for you).

As for dinner, you’ll start with an appetiser and soup of the day, before choosing between three main dishes. A selection of puddings and cheeses rounds things off. Still peckish? You’ll find late-night snacks in the lounge area.

Solo travel

Yes, whether you’re on a solo tour or not, you’ll always be able to return to the comfort of your own room. This gives you space whenever you need it, as well as comfortable surroundings where you can rest and get ready for the day or night ahead.

We’ll provide plenty of opportunities for you to get to know everyone else on the tour. That said, you’ll always have the freedom to socialise as much or as little as you want.

Not if you don’t want to. You can head along to an informal dinner led by your tour manager – they’ll let you know when and where to meet.

Yes. A lot of these people might be travelling solo for the first time and may well share the same concerns as you. We’ll organise activities, allowing you to get to know your fellow travellers and experience attractions first hand.

Of course – you’re more than welcome to join any of the regular departure dates for these tours. Groups tend to be a mix of couples, friends, families and single travellers, so there’s always a lovely, friendly atmosphere.

VIP travel

There are no mileage limits or supplements to pay for our airport transfers – we cover every UK address (with the exception of the Scottish Islands and Sark, where we’ll pick you up from a mainland address of your choice).

Our transfer vehicles are all exclusive to Titan. None of them are more than five years old, and they’re all valeted daily. At certain busy times, we supplement our Titan fleet with carefully selected private hire vehicles – we’ll always ensure these are of the same standard as our own.

We can sort out free parking for you at any airport or port. Just let us know if you’d rather do this and we’ll make all the arrangements.

If flights to your destination are only available from London you will be given the option to take a connecting flight from your local airport – usually for a small supplement. We will still make sure you’re taken to and from your departure airport.

Booking conditions for connecting flights to London:-

  • Connecting flights are subject to schedules and availability.

  • Applicable supplements will be quoted once flight schedules become available, which may be after your initial booking date.

  • Additional or higher non-refundable deposits may be payable for flights with low-cost airlines.

  • Due to differing flight schedules, overnight accommodation may be required at an additional cost.

Please call our team on 0800 988 5823 for more information.

It’s not usually possible to make a change to your pick-up time but rest assured that we have carefully planned your journey for comfort and timeliness. Please be ready promptly, we’re unable to wait for you, as this will delay other passengers. Titan Travel cannot accept any liability for loss or delay affecting your holiday if you’re not at the pick-up address on time.

We can only guarantee travel in the same vehicle as a friend if you are both travelling from one address.

Please be aware that the majority of Titan’s VIP door-to-door service transfers are not exclusive to one holiday booking and your vehicle may collect others on the way meaning your route can deviate from the most direct.

Our driver will also be pleased to make comfort stops at your request, please discuss this with your driver before setting off. On some journeys, we may ask you to change vehicles en-route but only ever where its comfortable to do so.

Please note there is a small step into most MPV’s so if you have any mobility concerns, or if you’re taking a walker or wheelchair, please let us know (if you haven’t already) 0800 988 5811.

COVID-19

With some COVID-19 rules and restrictions still in place there are a few details that you need to know. This information is subject to change. It’s your responsibility to monitor changes and ensure you fulfil all relevant criteria for travel. Rest assured that we’re on hand to help and answer any questions you might have.

Travel advice

Travelling in the EU

Currently, British passport holders do not need a visa if you’re planning to spend less than 90 days in any 180-day period, in any Schengen country.

Please note the following advice is only valid for British Citizens.

Travel to a non-EU country

Some countries require at least 6 months validity beyond your planned date of return travel. You should check the expiry date on your passport and view the FCDO travel advice for the destination(s) you are visiting for confirmation of the specific rules.

Travel to an EU country

It is very important that you check your passport carefully as the rules have changed post-Brexit.

Check the passport issue date: Your passport must be no more than 10 years old when you enter your destination country.

Check the passport expiry date: For most EU countries you must have at least 3 months validity beyond your planned date of return travel. You should check the expiry date on your passport and view the FCDO travel advice for the destination(s) you are visiting for confirmation of the specific rules.

Whilst premium and fast track options are available, standard passport renewals can take up to 10 weeks, so you should take action as early as possible.

Passport and entry requirements can change before departure and whilst we’ll tell you if there are any material changes, it’s your responsibility to ensure that you understand and adhere to all entry requirements for the countries you’re visiting. We recommend you regularly familiarise yourself with the latest requirements. We’re unable to accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport/entry/immigration requirements.

The 26 Schengen countries are:

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.

No, airport transit visas are not required for British Citizens, however if you are flying via a non-Schengen Area country then we recommend you check this with the relevant embassy.

Following the UK’s exit from the EU, the Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) has replaced the former EHIC. You can apply online at nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/healthcare-abroad/apply-for-a-free-uk-global-health-insurance-card-ghic/ a GHIC is free of charge. The card lets you obtain medically necessary state healthcare in most European countries (exceptions apply) at a reduced cost or sometimes free of charge, however it isn’t a replacement for travel insurance.

It’s best to check with your mobile phone provider before travel in order to avoid unexpected roaming charges.
