The following hotel list is preliminary and subject to change. Although we contract our hotels a year in advance, unforeseen situations do occasionally occur. Should it be necessary to change a hotel, one of equal quality and value will be substituted. You will receive verified hotel information with your final itinerary. Please note that hotel ratings are based on the Hotel and Travel Index, a leading travel industry authority on hotels throughout the world.
Please Note: This region is relatively new to Western tourism and not all hotels are rated by the Hotel & Travel Index. However, all hotels have been carefully selected to meet basic standards of comfort, and have been inspected by a Vantage representative.
In Tirana, Ohrid, Nesebar, and Istanbul similar accommodations may be used on some departure dates.
