YOUR TOUR PACKAGE DOES NOT INCLUDE:
 
Lunch, Dinners throughout the tour, Entrance Fees to sites specified above. (We do not include lunches, because you are normally out sightseeing during daytime hours, and we don't know exactly where you will be, as it is up to you, when and where to visit. Similarly, we do not include dinners, because these luxury hotels charge very high rates if we include the daily buffet dinners, but if you dine even in the hotel restaurants, it is much more economical to choose whatever you want from the menu.
Finally, we don't include all the sightseeing, because normally people will not be interested in visiting ALL the sightseeing places possible, but if we include it, we need to include them all, which unnecessarily raise your tour cost. You can pay for sightseeing individually, even in local currency, at whichever places you are interested in visiting.)
