"
Rush of Excitement"
Dear travel friends,
Have you ever had a rush of excitement that suddenly makes you go
“Wow, look at that!” Your heart pounds faster, your mind is spinning to
comprehend, and you might even hold your breath.
This happened to me recently when I visited the Rocky Mountain National
Park in Colorado. My wife and I took the old Fall River Road, a winding,
dirt packed one lane road to the top of the continental divide. Near the
top we stopped to take in the beauty. I pulled out my binoculars and
there it was-that rush of excitement.
It was a herd of elk grazing on a steep-grass covered slope at 12,000
feet. And I was excited. Not a typical sight in my normal day to day life.
They were fascinating to watch.
Discovering something new, something unexpected, or something in
nature will do that to most people. And that is what we hope you’ll
experience on an Allied tour.
For 2019 we have ten new tours to make your heart beat faster. Rain
forests in Costa Rica, the ocean waves pounding on the Oregon coast,
or gliding down the romantic Rhine River on our river cruise will all move
your spirit and inspire your soul.

The Allied Tour Experience
Rocky mountains, coastal waterways, forested hillsides, and Spanish
moss- you’ll see this and many other unforgettable sights on an Allied
tour. Have you smelled azaleas in the spring, or mountain pine trees
recently? When was the last time you took a cooking class? Never
been on a helicopter? How about rafting down a river? These are just
some of the invigorating experiences you’ll have with Allied Tours.
Free Time and Food
Our Travelers Say it Best!
Ladies Only Getaway
"I have never been on a bus tour
and really enjoyed this trip with
my mom and three of her very
dear high school friends. Our
driver and tour director were
amazing!"
– Jen S., Gering, NE
Do you like to have some time to explore on your own? Many tours
include free time to check out some quaint local shops, stroll to some
scenic outlooks, or have coffee and snacks with the locals. On some
tours you’ll enjoy ‘Optional’ excursions where you will be able to
choose from two or more attractions or activities to suit your interests.
"It’s just more fun this way!”
"This was my first bus tour of this
type - and won't be my last. Loved
getting dropped off & picked up at
the door!"
– Lynda W., Charter Oak, IA
MagnoliaMarket.com
Let’s talk about food. Half the fun of taking a tour, let’s face it, is eating.
At Allied Tours we search out local restaurants when lunch or dinner is
included in the tour. We want you to taste your way through your tour
as well as experiencing interesting attractions. You will have more fun
discovering the food of the “locals” on an Allied Tour.
Step-on-Guides Make Travel Interesting
Allied taps the expertise of local step-on guides on most tours! These
guides bring a wealth of knowledge and insight into the local area
and enhance your travel experience. You will hear the stories and
history that make the area you are visiting come alive. We even take
care of the guide gratuity for you!
Meticulously Time Itineraries
An important aspect of group travel is the timing of each day’s
activities. At Allied we take time to make sure your tour runs like clockwork.
Early morning check-outs or late check-ins are a rarity. Also, we
allow enough time at the attractions for you to feel like you have seen
what you want to see. Timing is one of those things that you don’t know
you’ve missed until it is missing. Experience an Allied tour and you’ll
see the difference what good timing makes!
Florida Winter Getaway
New Orleans & the Deep South
"Well planned. Info provided made
it easy to venture on own in New
Orleans. Love the organization
and wide variety. I love the step-on
guides – they give local info and
make the tour memorable. Stepon
guides set Allied apart from
other tours I have been on. The
Ultra Coach is worth paying more,
especially on longer tours. "
– Linda H., Blair, NE
"This was our 5th tour with
Allied. We are looking
forward to many more. They
just keep getting better &
better. We had a great time."
– Larry & Mary W.,
Lincoln, NE
Live and Online Travel Shows
An Allied Tour Exclusive!
We have two ways you can experience travel the Allied way; live and
in person travel shows and our online webinars. Each is personally
narrated by Allied staff and provides in-depth information and
beautiful images on the many tours available. The best part is that both
are FREE. To receive an invitation by email for either the live or online
show, email your email address to: Allied@AlliedTT.com.
We would love to meet you in person or online.
Canyonlands & National Parks
canyonlandsbynight.com
"The entire trip
exceeded my
expectations! We had
adequate time in each
National Park. We
loved Zion! I didn't
feel rushed. Our tour
director was great
about providing water
& snacks."

Aboard NCL’s Pride of America
Say “aloha” to a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. Visit
four islands in seven days, including overnight stays in
Maui and Kauai, which means you are on an island
each & every day of your cruise. The Pride of America
will welcome you aboard with a casual “island” vibe
that reflects the laid-back Hawaiian culture. Formal
night on the Pride of America means a Hawaiian shirt
or sundress. And NCL’s “freestyle” cruising means
there are no fixed dining times or pre-assigned seating.
Feb. 14, 2019: Pre-departure package is included in
the tour rate. This includes shuttles and pre-departure
overnight accommodations in Omaha.

Traveler Conduct & Special Needs
Tours are fun, but the enjoyment of the tour is based on everyone being
friendly and cooperative. Allied reserves the right to accept or decline
any passenger on any tour if Allied Tour determines a passenger would
be detrimental to the tour. Once a tour departs, any passenger disruptive
to the group may be asked to leave the tour. Expenses to return home
would be the responsibility of the passenger. No refunds will be issued
for unused portions of the tour.
Please notify us of any special needs at the time of reservation. We will
make all reasonable efforts to assist with your travel arrangements.
However, it is strongly recommended that a traveling companion come
along to help with any special needs of anyone with a disability. Allied’s
tour directors have responsibilities for the entire group and can’t provide
one-on-one care. This includes boarding of motor coaches, airplanes,
cruise ships, etc. and traversing hotels, restaurants, attractions, or other
personal needs, etc. Contact Allied if you have any questions.
Single Travelers
Single travelers are guaranteed one seat on the motor coach and may
be seated next to another traveler if the tour is full.
Inspiration & Faith
Due to tour schedules, we are unable to make any special provisions for
worship services. Many tour directors share a “Thought for the Day,”
verses of inspiration, or a short prayer to start the day.

What to Know Before You Go
Travel Insurance
We highly recommend travel insurance to protect your payments from
cancellation fees. Your trip investment is worth protecting, and travel
insurance is the best way to safeguard against unexpected events
that can prevent you from traveling and being assessed significant
cancellation fees. Contact Allied for travel insurance information.
Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP)
(Motor Coach Tours Only)
Your payments can be protected from cancellation charges for a
nominal fee when traveling on one of our motor coach tours. The CPP
must be purchased prior to or at final payment. For complete plan
information please contact Allied or your local travel agent.
Baggage Allowance
Portage for one suitcase (per person) is included in the tour price.
Due to limited motor coach capacity, your single bag should have
dimensions not exceeding 30”x21”x11” and weigh no more than 50
lbs. Small carry-on bags are allowed and are your responsibility.
Most airlines assess a baggage fee. This fee is not included in the tour
price and is paid for at airport check-in.
Changes in Tour Price
Tour prices in this publication are effective as of October 1, 2018
and subject to fluctuation due to the U.S. dollar exchange rates and
energy rates. Our best effort has been made to publish this information
as accurately as possible. The right is reserved to change tour rates as
deemed necessary by current currency, fuel price conditions, taxes,
etc. Due to the volatility of airfares and flight schedules, tours utilizing
air transportation are subject to change both in price and routing.
Submitting your deposit is an acknowledgment of your agreement
to these terms.

Documentation for International Travel
