Nine countries, one office

Where We Work

Nine places this office books often enough to know something useful about, each with the band it usually falls into and the month that decides it. A shorter list than an agency could publish, and it is the list we actually book.

The nine, and what decides each

Where	Usually this band	The month that decides it
Peru	Bought whole	May to September is dry and cold at night. The rest of the year the passes argue with you
The Danube	Bought whole	Spring and late autumn. High summer is hot, full, and the water level is least reliable
Scotland	Nights and legs	May to September for the light. Sunday services thin out all year
The Greek islands	Nights and legs	May, June, September. August is hot, full and dearer, and the sea is at its best
Morocco	Nights and legs	April, May, October, November. Inland summer is severe and we will say so
Andalusia	Nights bought	March to June, September to November. July and August are a decision, not a default
Puerto Rico	Nights bought	December to April is settled. Late in the hurricane season is cheap for a reason
Quebec	Nights bought	Winter is the reason to go, and a real winter. Autumn is the easy answer
Colombia and Ireland	Arrival bought	Avoid Holy Week and December in Colombia; avoid July and August in Ireland. In those weeks this band stops working

Why the list is this short

Nine is the number one office books often enough to be worth asking. A list of forty would mean the same as a list of none.

Ask about a tenth place and you will be told plainly that the research has not been done yet, and that it will be done alongside you rather than presented as if it existed. Where a specialist elsewhere is the better answer, that is what you will hear. It has been said before and it will be said again.

A steep narrow street of low painted colonial houses on a hillside in soft afternoon light, empty of people, with no shop signs or lettering — Half of what this office is asked about is a street somebody saw once and cannot name.

What being in Washington changes

Everything here is priced from Washington, and that shapes the trips more than travelers expect.

Flights: Quoted separately from every trip on this site, because the airfare moves the day you ask, not the day you fly
Connections: Most of these routes involve one, and which one is available on your dates moves the figure more than the hotel does
Arrival days: A long haul day is planned as a travel day. An itinerary that expects sightseeing after eighteen hours was written by somebody who has not done it
Time zones: Six of the nine are five hours ahead or more, and the first morning is the one people waste

Ask about one

Your name goes on the booking; it has to match the passport later

Where the price goes nothing else is ever sent to it

Telephone, optional used only if writing cannot settle it

How much you want bought in advance this is the one question that changes everything else

No card nowhere on this site is there a field for one
No charge the price, the comparison, and a second price after you change your mind
No obligation including after the price arrives

The boxes above are checked in the browser before anything moves, and that check is off here, so the button is too. Put these lines in a mail to office@mydomainetravel.com and it lands in the same tray: your name, where to reply, roughly when, who is traveling with ages under 18, and a figure not to pass. Or telephone +1 (202) 544-0193 while the office is open, Mon to Thu 9:30 am to 6 pm, Fri 9:30 am to 4 pm Eastern.

Where each box above ends up, and how long it is kept, has a card of its own on the privacy page. The terms say what is binding at each moment, which before a booking is nothing.
