OUR TIPS

Each tour operator specializes in a certain size group. You should ask them specific questions related to the size of the group, if an English-speaking guide is provided, the itinerary for the trip, and any other information that you will need to be comfortable booking with them.
-
You should speak to your friends and relatives that have traveled to Iraq to get their insights as well.
-
Ensure that the tour dates align with your plans.
-
Purchase travel insurance, if your plans may change or an emergency situation arises. Talk to your tour operator for information.
-
Check with your country's state department's website for any travel advisories or warnings. Certain areas of the country may not be safe for foreigners to travel to - due to cases of kidnappings etc.
