All of “The Other Iraq Tours” are specially designed for each customer. We just need general information about when you wish to come, how many will be in your group and what you are most interested in seeing or doing. We will then send you a proposed itinerary and work with you to revise it to meet your specific needs and desires.

When all of the details have been worked out and you are satisfied with the itinerary a non-refundable deposit of 10% of the tour price we will be required 60 days prior to the tour date and full payment for the tour will be required within 30 days of the tour date.
