"Journeys
sans frontières"
 At
World Heritage Tours, that phrase is more than
just our mantra. It symbolises the breaking of political
and traditional boundaries and our efforts to go beyond
the regular frontiers. It represents our goal to constantly
innovate. It signifies our desire to provide you with
a level of service that exceeds your level of expectations.
It epitomises our whole existence. Our journeys offer
intrepid travelers diverse cultural experiences, history
at the very site and setting, scenery that must be seen
to be understood and genuine contact with people from
all over the world. In short it is an experience of
our own heritage in the bestway.We offer service above the ordinary and a travel experience that is unashamedly romantic and adventurous.  Accomodations

 Choosing
which hotels to use in our tour programs is a decision
that we take very seriously. Our
selection process is rigorous and some of what we look
at includes the management team, comfort level, decor,
amenities, location and performance record of the establishment.
Thus, the hotels we use offer fine exquisitely appointed
guest rooms and suites, internationally acclaimed cuisine,
and exceptional leisure facilities designed to create
a delightfully memorable travel experience.Where possible, we prefer to use historical and heritage properties that meet the above criteria as it is in keeping with our philosophy of travel as an experiential journey. There are certain tours where, due to the nature of the tour program and local conditions, we may use budget properties and tents / camps. The tour itineraries stipulate the name of the hotels we use.
Meals

|
 The
meal plan for each tour is indicated on a day-to-day basis
in each itinerary. We have tried to offer a wide range
of cuisine in our itineraries giving careful consideration
to the local specialties available in each region. We
also try to offer meals in different restaurants rather
as well as the hotel itself. Whenever lunch is included
for the tour, it is usually based on a set menu due to
time considerations. Dinners, on the other hand, may consist
of a scrumptious buffet or a set menu. With the rare exception,
all of our tour itineraries feature meals included within
the tour cost. Please refer to the individual itineraries
for information on meal plans.
