Only travel agents whose staff have successfully completed this programme will qualify as agents for Discover the World. FLEXIBLE PRICING In this brochure you will fi nd an indication of the cheapest rate at which each holiday was offered at the time of going to press. Up- to- date pricing is shown in full on our website, or can be provided by calling our offi ce. Prices are reviewed regularly and where appropriate adjustments made ( up or down) to our website. However once your holiday is confi rmed, prices will be fi xed and guaranteed 100% against any increases which may occur, whatever happens to the pound, the price of oil or tax changes. YOUR MONEY IS SAFE WITH US NO MATTER WHAT Tour operators are very highly regulated and, being fully bonded, we are licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority ( CAA) under Air Travel Organisers' Licence ( ATOL) number 2896; we are members of the Association of British Travel Agents ( ABTA) and the Association of Independent Tour Operators ( AITO) - please see page 123 for further information about this organisation. Through the AITO Trust we have a bond for your full fi nancial protection. In fact AITO members are unique amongst travel companies in offering this cover. ABTA members or those companies trading with just an ATOL licence do not necessarily provide cover for every aspect of holiday protection. COMPREHENSIVE TRAVEL INFORMATION Once a booking is confi rmed we will supply detailed literature to ensure you leave home fully prepared. SPECIAL TRAVEL INSURANCE For complete peace of mind we have arranged exclusive travel insurance that covers every travel arrangement and activity advertised in this brochure. We feel the cover and rates offered are extremely competitive - see page 120. OUR EXTENDED FAMILY Cathy Harlow a renowned naturalist, expert guide, travel writer and photographer, has worked for Discover the World for over 20 years. Cathy's knowledge of Iceland is astounding and her enthusiasm infectious - that's why she often gives presentations on our behalf on Iceland and several other destinations to which we travel. Her contribution towards our Iceland programme, whether advising on itineraries, accommodation or excursions, or indeed supplying key images, is invaluable. Cathy is also the author of the excellent Landmark Guide: Iceland which we supply free of charge to our self- drive clients. Ragnar TH Sigurdsson is one of the world's leading photographers. He has been capturing every facet of his homeland since 1975 with his work acclaimed by the likes of Getty and National Geographic. Ragnar continually succeeds in producing images of the highest quality and his experience and passion for Iceland is evident throughout this brochure ( and every Iceland brochure we've produced) as the vast majority of the images you'll see here, have the Sigurdsson stamp. Ragnar also contributes to our Lapland brochure. arctic- images. com Cathy Harlow Ragnar TH Sigurdsson
