F.A.Q. and Tour Policies

All travel documents necessary for your trip will be attached to your final tour itinerary. Please print out all of the documents prior to departure as they contain e-reservations, tickets, and other important travel documents. We also recommend printing out your final tour itinerary that includes your detailed tour schedule.

Your guides and drivers meet you with a Firebird meeting sign that has your name written on it. The location of your meeting points and meeting time are indicated in your day by day schedule. Please do not leave the meeting points if you cannot see your guide or driver. In case you have trouble locating your guide or driver please contact us at our support line available from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. (CET) on weekdays and weekends.

The maximum waiting time for a driver at the airport is usually 1 hour / at the train station it is 30 minutes (timing might vary destination-wise, exact waiting time will be indicated on your final itinerary). In case your flight / train is delayed please contact us immediately at our support line so we can re-arrange your transfers.

Hotel reservations are made under your last name. The standard check-in time at the hotels is 3 p.m. Early check-in is not included. In case you arrive earlier you may leave your luggage at the luggage room prior to check-in. The standard check-out time at the hotels is 12 p.m. Late check-out is not included. In case you depart later you may leave your luggage at the luggage room until departure. Please take your breakfast boxes at the reception desk upon check out in case you depart before 07:00.

Your train and bus e-tickets are usually issued 80 days prior to the date of travel and are attached to your final travel itinerary. Please print them out before the beginning of your trip. When on the trip we recommend arriving at the train/bus station at least 20 minutes prior to departure.

You can modify your program before the final confirmation is sent free of charge. Once we've prepared a final itinerary for you and sent it to you via email (usually no later than 30 days before departure), any changes and add-ons to your itinerary are subject to a 150 USD (or equivalent in local currency) modification fee.
