Travelers resources

How do I book a trip?

All trips must be booked directly with the tour operator. Once you select the trip you are interested in you will be directed to the tour operator site which will provide detailed itineraries and reservation information.

 

Who coordinates trip logistics?

VCU Alumni partners with expert tour operators who design and manage the trips. We select these tour operators based on our criteria of established reputations, dependable operations, and professional staff. All itinerary and flight details are handled by the tour operators. Learn more about each of our partners: AESU, Alumni Holidays International, Contiki, Gohagan & Company, GoNext Travel and Orbridge Destination Specialists.

 

Who else is on the trip?

VCU Alumni and their guests are welcome to embark on an alumni tour. You may also be traveling with alumni from other universities. Are you 22-35? Browse the trips labeled young alumni for adventures specially designed with you in mind. 

 

Can I travel alone?

Trip pricing is generally based on double occupancy, meaning two people sharing a room or cabin. Most tours offer a limited number of single rooms. If you wish to travel individually a single supplement fee may apply.

 

What is the cancellation and refund policy?

Consult the individual trip brochure for cancellation policies or call the tour operator directly. We encourage travelers to review all policies with their selected tour operator. Travel insurance is also available to alumni at a discounted rate, to minimize financial impact if a cancellation is needed.

 

What trip protections are available?

We recommend travel insurance to protect against last-minute trip cancellation and other travel-related risks. While travel insurance may be purchased from any vendor, we have partnered with USI to offer travel insurance at a discount for VCU alumni.
