Answer»

You : Is that Intersight, the Tour Company? 

Agent: Insight here, I am Tom. How can I help you? 

You : I saw your advert in Malayala Manorama about the 8-days tour of Europe, starting on 19th April. I would like to join you.

Agent: You are welcome. To book you have to pay an initial amount of Rs. 30,000/-. Then you send us your passport. We have to get you a European visa. 

You : When should I pay the rest of the amount? 

Agent: It should be paid when you get the visa. We will let you know of the date. 

You : How many are there in the group? 

Agent: You are the 33rd member of the group. 

You : What are the things I must bring with me? 

Agent: You will need warm clothes as Europe is still cold in April. You should also bring your essential medicines. You can’t buy medicines in Europe as you buy them in India. You will need a doctor’s prescription and seeing a doctor could be quite expensive and time-consuming. Carry your camera with you as you will like to take photographs. Keep some Euros with you, in case you want to buy something special.

You : How much luggage can I carry?

Agent: You can carry 30 kgs. But I suggest you take the minimum luggage. Less luggage, more comfort. 

You : Okay, thanks. I will send you the passport and the money soon.

 Agent: That’s fine. I assure you that it will be a memorable trip. Bye! 

You : Bye!
